Chris Webby and Token

Chris had an interest in hip hop and rap music from a young age, he started listening to Eminem and after finding an adoration for the artist he began writing his own raps in sixth grade. He pursued his passions through education, Webby attended Hofstra University on Long Island, New York which is where he first generated buzz as a rapper by free styling at frat houses. During his sophomore year he was arrested on March 27, 2009 in connection with a failed robbery attempt of a drug dealer on Hofstra University campus. After this he was ejected from the university which forced the young artist to focus on his music career.

On June 3, 2011, Webby released the mixtape 'Webster's Laboratory'. The mixtape featured guest appearances from rappers Freeway, Gorilla Zoe and Apathy and was received particularly well by critics. He followed this later that year with the EP titled 'There Goes the Neighborhood'. The EP was released by his record label Homegrown Music and features a guest appearances by Slaine. It was considered a commercial success for an underground hip hop artist after it peaked at number 101 on the Billboard 200, number 13 on the Billboard Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart and topped the Heatseekers Albums chart. To support the release, Webby embarked on a 40 date North American tour shortly after the release.

In mid-2013 he signed a record deal with independent powerhouse eOne Music. He shortly released a single called 'Down Right' which went on to feature on the track-listing of the 'Homegrown' EP, his first release through eOne Music. The debut album 'Chemically Imbalanced' was released in late 2014 and features appearances from Dizzy Wright, Jarren Benton, Tech N9ne. It featured the preceding single 'F*ck Off' and due to the artist's growing fan-base the album charted at #25 on the US Billboard charts with first week sales of 13,000 units.
