Biografía de Birdman

Bryan Williams, better known by his stage name Birdman has built up a hugely successful career over the years with his breed of hip-hop. He is partly responsible for the creation of the label, Young Money Cash Money.

It was in 1997 that Birdman joined forces with the producer DJ Mannie Fresh to create a project called the Big Tymers. They debuted in 1998 with a collection of works necessitating the album “How Ya Luv That?” which was followed by “I Got That Work” in 2000, which featured the songs “#1 Stunna” and “Get Your Roll On”. The following album, “Hood Rich” featured the singles “Still Fly” which was nominated for a Grammy Award.

His solo career has been a fantastically successful one over the years with chart positions to match. “Fast Money”, his sophomore album, released on June 21st 2005 made it to number 9 on the Billboard 200 and number 4 in the R&B Charts. It was the highest charting album of his career so far.

Birdman collaborated with Lil Wayne to release an album entitled “Like Father, Like Son”. Released on October 31st 2006, it became a gold record, and featured three singles on it such as “Stuntin’ Like My Daddy”, going to number three in the Billboard 200 chart. He released his fourth studio album “5 * Stunna” with the first single being “Pop Bottles”. It was released on December 11th 2007 and went to number 18 in the Billboard 200 chart.

He was a part of the collaborative album released on July 23rd 2013. It was called “Rich Gang” and made it to number 9 on the Billboard 200.

Biografía de Lil Boosie

Lil’ Boosie is a rapper hailing from Baton Rouge, Louisiana who was born on the 14th of November 1982. He has released six solo studio albums to date alongside a further five collaboration albums, all of which have received critical and commercial acclaim.

Born Torrence Hatch to a single mother in one of Louisiana’s more dangerous neighbourhoods, Lil’ Boosie has had an upbringing that nearly reads like a list of most likely prospects for a young African-American man in today’s society. The crucial one that’s missing is becoming a gangster. While Boosie grew up around that kind of activity, he tried as hard as he could to steer clear of it, instead immersing himself into the world of basketball playing. While it looked as if his skill at the sport would lead to a college scholarship, he couldn’t escape the bad influences around him and a drugs charge lead him to be expelled from High School.

Not to be deterred, he instead poured his indomitable spirit into rapping. Soon after that he’d become involved with a local rapper turned label owner C-Loc, who was so impressed with Boosie’s work that he immediately got the young rapper recording them in his studio. A self-released debut album came next, entitled “Youngest Of The Camp”, and everything seemed to be going his way, until C-Loc was sentenced to four years in prison. Rudderless without his mentor, Boosie got sent down as well for driving a stolen car.

It could have utterly derailed his incredibly promising career there and then, and it probably would have if it wasn’t for Pimp C’s Trill Entertainment label. They signed him, got him out of jail, and after that he really started coming into his own, with his first album released on the label “For My Thugz” selling 30’000 copies completely independently. Ever since then, Boosie has been one of Hip-Hop’s true nearly men, never quite stepping out of trouble’s shadow but always justifying it with great music that, since 2005, has been being released by Asylum, a label supported by Warner Brothers Records.

Clearly, if you can work with everyone from Three 6 Mafia and T.I, to Young Jeezy and 2 Chains while still getting in trouble with the law you’re a talent to be reckoned with, and Boosie is still very much in his prime. Highly recommended.

Biografía de Juvenile

Terius Gray is better known by his stage name, Juvenile, and is an American hip-hop rapper from New Orleans, Lousiana.

Born on 25 March 1975, Juvenile first started rapping in the early 1990s. After signing with Warlock records in 1995, he released his debut album entitled “Being Myself.” Unfortunately, the album did not gain much national attention and did not chart, but did fairly well on a local level. However, it did bring more attention to labels, and as a result, Juvenile signed to Cash Money Records and released “Solja Rags” in 1997. Although the album saw some national success having made it onto the Billboard Hot R&B/ Hip-Hop Songs Chart, it saw most of its success with local rap audiences. Also in 1997, Juvenile joined the Hot Boys with fellow Cash Money rappers B.G., Turk, and Lil Wayne and together they released their debut album “Get It How U Live!”

Juvenile released his third solo album entitled “400 Degreez” in 1998 and it became his breakout album, having had the opportunity for a bigger market due to Cash Money Records gaining a joint distribution with Universal Records. Keeping up with the success of “400 Degreez,” he released “Tha G-Code” in 1999 and “Project English “ in 2001, both of which ended up becoming double certified platinum.

In 2005 Juvenile signed a new deal with Atlantic Records and released “Reality Check” in 2006. The album, which had debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 chart, went on to become certified gold. By 2012 Juvenile released his tenth album, “Rejuvenation” which featured the single "Power" featuring Rick Ross. Juvenile collaborated with Lil Wayne, DJ Khaled, and Drake.

Críticas en vivo

To give you an indication of the degree to which hip hop and the business world now cross over, consider the fact that Birdman - or Bryan Williams, when he’s at home - has released four solo records, all of which met with a lukewarm critical reception and did reasonably well commercially; the highest chart peak for one of those records was at number nine in the U.S. Now consider the fact that he is worth an estimated $160 million. This is a man so rich that once gave Lil Wayne a million dollars in cash for his birthday. Quite rightly, too, though, because Wayne is a big part of why Birdman is so wealthy; he’s the founder of Cash Money Records. Accordingly, he’s spent more time recently working on his label and on the music of the label’s stars than his own material, but plans to release a new record of his own, Bigga Than Life, in the not-too-distant future; similarly, he only makes sporadic live appearances, and is often accompanied by some of his Cash Money proteges in order to augment his own back catalogue. The chances of new UK dates soon, then, are slim, with anybody lucky enough to catch his Shepherd’s Bush show with Drake in 2010 left to cherish the memory.

I would say that Lil Boosie is known as Torrence Hatch when he’s at home, but in fact, he’s probably been officially known by an identification number for the past few years; you won’t have seen him on stage since before 2009, since he’s been serving a prison sentence since for a variety of drug charges. He was released in March of this year, though, and now he needs to make up for lost time - it wasn’t just his impressive five records to date that carved out his reputation as one of the most promising prospects in hip hop prior to his incarceration, it was also his genuinely wild live shows. Boosie comes over like southern hip hop’s very own cross between, say, Ol’ Dirty Bastard and Lil Wayne; there’s youthful exuberance in his unpredictable stage presence, sure, but a hint of the unhinged as well. With his comeback album Touchdown 2 Cause Hell released the same day I type this, his return to the road - a welcome one - is surely only around the corner.

Just like any other musical movement, hip hop in the nineties was dominated by a sound that was very much of its time; whilst many of the genre’s biggest acts, like Nas and Jay Z, adapted to the fact that the noughties saw a real shift in sonic terms - others, of course, like Tupac and The Notorious B.I.G. never made it out of the decade - it wasn’t the case for plenty of other nineties artists. Master P is a fine example of what I’m talking about; a massive success in the nineties, he saw his star begin to wane once the decade was over, but his business dealings have guaranteed him the title of the world’s third richest hip hop figure, with a net worth of $350 million. His focus on the world of business these days has prevented him from touring to the same degree that he used to during his multi-platinum days, but he still makes sporadic performances from time to time, such as a slot at Insane Clown Posse’s Gathering of the Juggalos festival in 2012; he played a quickfire, twenty-minute set that was thrillingly energetic, with a DJ dropping P’s iconic beats and the man himself ripping through a slew of his own nineties classics; when you hear this man rap about money, you know he knows what he’s talking about.
