King Spyda

At the premature age of 10, Boston-born rapper King Spyda began creating what he considered just expressions that rhyme. He listened to artists like LL Cool J, Run DMC and Busta Rhymes among many others, but also liked groups like Phantom, Lakol and Zin( Haitian Bands).

Deriving from a Haitian background, he also learned something involuntarily that became a weapon of choice. He cultured the Haitian Creole language.

Upon going to junior high he also learned that everyone who heard him became believers and soon advocates that it was more than just rhyming words. They referred to him as “the” rapper not “a” rapper. Spyda began rapping at every corner, mall, trainstation, school or any place there were spectators. Soon, a high school acquaintance, Shannyn, introduced him to DJ Reese (Bobby Brown’s DJ) who then began working closely with him in the studio where New Edition & New Kids On The Block got their big break. Reese began teaching Spyda the art of ghostwriting; instructing him on how to write for others and how to perfect his craft as a recording artist!!!

He has done shows throughout New England, performing at every venue that showcases Hip-Hop in Boston including many of the colleges that sanction Hip-Hop. He’s also been featured on all relevant underground DVD’s.

In the Spring of 2005, he entered a challenge with over 100 artist ranging from R&B artist to country singers in the annual SIMON MALL® DTOUR LIVE COMPETITION hosted by Kiss 108FM (leading station in MA). King Spyda won 1st place in the preliminary at Braintree Mall, MA and then went on to win 1st place at the finals in Attleboro. He was also a featured artist on the Coca Cola Boston Hip-Hop Showcase® as well as the AND1 Mixtape Tour®.

Spyda recently worked very closely with Joe Budden (Grammy Nominee) on musical projects for Sullee (VH1’s The White Rapper Show). He has been played continuously on Jamn’ 94.5 (Clear Channel), WERS 88.9 and the former 97.7(Major Boston stations). He is being reviewed and watched closely by Atlantic Records & G-Unit/Tasetemaker Music Producer Chad Beatz, who is now feeding his hunger for beats!!!

His diversity and variety alone makes him extremely marketable and his adaptability to the rap game makes him a chameleon and a trend- setter. He’s notorious style makes him valued by his peers and supporters. It is no secret to his region that he is an ambassador, a Titan, and the King of Kings.

He is best identified in the streets for his contributions on Spotlight DVD® – (101 BARS) where he reveals his own city’s shady ways and is also known for his explicit and raunchy bilingual rap. Although, there is no particular subject matter to describe his music content, he has been compared to a range of styles including Eminem, Jadakiss, and even Andre3000.

A safety belt may not be enough, but ia a good idea while riding with King Spyda through his tales of happiness, loyalty, & deceit over the cracked concrete pavements of Boston.

So buckle up, sit back and enjoy the roller coaster ride Spyda provides… That’s if you’re ready!!!
