Details:
At age 4, a young man was captured on a cassette tape eloquently discussing which instrument he wanted to play with his father. His father said, “you should play the piano.” The boy passionately responded, “I want to play the drums!” There began the artistry of Name Basic. Throughout the years, Name Basic gravitated towards creative outlets, such as drawing, writing, singing, and music. However, out of them all, expressing thoughts and feelings via writing came very naturally. During teen angst and young adult development, the Atlanta based emcee would turn to the pen and pad to express himself. Name Basic and friends would gather weekly to share poems and spoken word pieces about the day, week, or experiences in life. One afternoon after he read a piece, a friend said to him, “That sounds like a rap!” This comment prompted him to explore writing a rap, which he did at age 21. For the last 7 years, Name Basic has been in the lab, working on his emcee craft. Given his respect for hip-hop, those who have come before him, and the infiltration of mediocre bedroom rappers, he has carefully worked on his skills while absorbing the culture around him. He intentionally put out no material during these last 7 years in order to find himself as an artist and develop quality music. The time has now come for him to release his debut album, “The Subtle Stampede,” and offer his voice to the community.
