Da Corporation is indeed the evolution of hip-hop music. Every so often, an artist or group of artists hit the scene who are so talented, rare and unique, that their mere presence alters the musical landscape as we know it. And no one is better at altering the musical landscape of hip-hop, than "Da Corporation".
Da Corporation consists of Dontay Farley (aka "610" aka "Donley"), Andrew Greene (aka "Lord of the Fly" aka "King of the Cool"), and CJ Kincaide (aka "Supa"). They have developed a bond that has grown over a span of four years. These three multitalented young men are both pioneers and engineers of a new genre of musical cuisine, which they so passionately refer to as "Flyy Muzik". When asked the proverbial question, "what is Flyy Muzik?", they rapidly reply, "There's Trap Music, Gangsta Music, Crunk Music, and then there's Flyy Muzik. Flyy Muzik is not about how much money you have, how many whips (cars) you drive, or how many women you can get. Flyy Muzik is about feeling good about yourself. It's your whole swagger." The essence of Flyy Muzik can be capsulated in one word, confidence.
And just when you think you've got this trio of artist figured out, you realize there's more to them than meets the eye. Each member of Da Corporation either has a college degree or is on the verge of receiving a college degree, something which is almost unheared of in the hip-hop industry, which explains the groups name, Da Corporation. These are more than mere rappers spitting hot lyrics to club banging beats. These are intelligent business men, who understand that at the end of the day, it's all about the business. This alone puts Da Corporation in a class of its own.
As you dig deeper into the persona of Da Corporation, it becomes extremely obvious that each member plays a vital role in the synergy and creative energy of their muisc. Each member is a crucial piece of the puzzle, who brings his own individual talents to the studio, to form a greater whole.
Dontay Farley (aka "610" aka "Donlay"), born in Eatonton, GA is known for his unique voice, metaphors, & lyrics, which are always on point. He also produces beats, writes hooks, and plays the keyboard. From a personal perspective, Dontay relates to the disappointment and the devastation of being a kid and witnessing your parents divorce, but he stands as a testament that what doesn't kill you, can and will make you stronger.
Andrew Greene (aka "Lord of the Fly" aka King of the cool"), born in McRae, Ga is the definition of Fly. His confidence is infectious and his flow is intoxicating, but not without a price. A. Greene is living proof that if you can look up, you can get up. And that's exactly what A. Greene has done. He was sentenced prison for possesion of crack cocaine, with the intent to distribute. And if that wasn't enough to derail his dreams, he was incarcerated his sophomore year in college. After serving 2 years in the State Penitentiary, he returned to college, to receive his Bachelor's Degree in Business Management. Now, that's Fly.
Cj Kincaide (aka "Supa") born in Detriot, grew up in Inkster, MI (15 miles west of Detriot, MI) spent summers in New York with his older cousin (who sparked Supa's love for music), and has lived in the south for 6 years. He credits his exposure to different types of rap, for the creation of his own style. This man has been rapping since he was 15 years old and producing since he was 17, so when he grips the mic, you better brace yourself. CJ is the son of a Dj, so you know the art of moving the crowd flows deep within his veins and his voice.
Da Corporation is exactly that, a group of merchants or traders united in a trade guild, a group of people acting as a single entity. Each of these artist could easily make it on their own, but as a collective group, they are destined to alter the historical landscape of Hip-Hop Muisc. Poised with talent, dedication, and commitment these young men are true trendsetters, originators and not just another group of imitators. Ready or not, here they come. Some men succedd because they are destined, but most men succeed because they are determined. Da Corporation is both destined and determined to succeed.
