Fluent was born in Memphis, Tennessee and grew up in Maryland. From a young age it was obvious that his musical abilities, both in rhyme and meter, were unparalleled by even some of the biggest names in music. Taking up percussion (Drums, Timpani, Xylophone etc) in the Third Grade, Fluent composed and performed 2 pieces in a full ensemble by the Eighth Grade. Shortly thereafter he took up serious writing of prose, mostly metal and rock (all the while listening to other genres). Then expulsion begets a different school, now a high school.

The playing and writing continued. However, now, he became exposed to the "battle" and freestyle elements in the hallways of his high school, and immediately grasped the concepts that drive hip-hop. From that point on, though his sole focus was not hip-hop, he knew that he had the skills, when honed properly, to dominate the hip-hop world. So high school continued with plenty of unfortunate circumstances we all know about and once he graduated, his parents moved to New Jersey and he moved to Worcester, Mass. It was here that his life would change all together. "I was in a work program for about 6 months before a really drunk night and a fight rolled my way. And that was the end of me in said program." He moved back in with his parents and decided to truly pursue hip-hop.

Signed with Vigilant Productions in 2004, him and 4 Eva Blesst decided to create an LP. Despite "Underground Famous" shortcomings, the process was invaluable in that he learned and grew so much from it that he decided to create another work, "The Will To Power [EP]". Though he now lives in Hartford, Connecticut, that EP is currently in production and he "returns to New Jersey to lay tracks and battle cats whenever they want that"... and we will just have to wait and see what comes next.
