"MASTER OF INTELLECT"



The name MINZ stands for Master of Intellect. Originally, MINZ was named Criminal Minds, then in the year 1995, the team broke it down to Master of Intellect. The name says it all. We've grown; we've come a long way; we're much more mature and wiser.



MINZ consists of two talented M.C.s, namely, L.D & RED-MONEY. There are, however, several members of the MINZ team, from Executive Assistant, Management to A&Rs. LD & RED-MONEY grew up on the same block in south Jamaica queens. Their friendship is based on three things: LOYALTY, RESPECT and TRUST. LD & RED-MONEY started rhyming together in 1993 on Lakewood Ave. At the time they were hustling, blowing L's, & just "toyin" around with the flows.

People around the way use to always use to tell them that they were "nice" with it.



In 1994 they formed MINZ and started going to Dr. DEF's studio on Archer avenue in queens with producer Brandon (Beat Don) to start recording songs.



Their first song was called "DAMN." The song got such a huge response from fans so they went on to record several more songs. Buddy from the R&B group INTRO(also LD's nephew) entered MINZ into a showcase at Camie Hall in New York City. The showcase went extremely well and several Labels were impressed. Since they were not focused and continued their "street-life," MINZ was at a standstill.



In 1997, MINZ was set back further due to the incarceration of Red-Money. LD

never lost the love for the music so he kept writing and exchanging lyrics with Red-Money throughout his bid.



"Again, the basis of any true friendship are loyalty, respect and trust. It felt as if I did the bid with Red-Money. I now we gonna look back and smile because we know that through struggle comes success. We on our grind. Just a few months ago, I lost my sister to Cancer. She past away on 11/17/2008. Her death made me see life differently. I know wanna get involved in helping people suffering with Cancer. Whether through performing or raising money, I'm motivated to do my part. To whom much is given, much is required."



When Lance Feurtado (well known 7crown member) was released from prison in 2004, he started working on a documentary about his brothers and himself, entitled, "Kings of Kings". The documentary also had a soundtrack which LD landed a song on there called "Hats Off,"(produced by Crownlife out of VA).



In 2005, Red-Money was released from prison. MINZ immediately re-grouped and started working on their first project, entitled, "The Code," which was also produced by Crownlife. Currently, they are completing their second project, entitled, "Back To Basixs" (produced by Brandon also know as "Beat Don").
