Artist Of The Week - Top $ Raz

Posted: 16 Mar 2009 06:05 AM PDT

Growing up in Far Rockaway, Queens, Top $ Raz knew how to rap before he even attended his first day of school. "My brother used to blast Hip-Hop music all day long," he remembers, "and if I didn't learn the words to Biggie I would be exiled out the room." A pretty rough sentence for a kid who was only six at the time, but it was that influence that not only led him to Hip-Hop, but to some very specific types of Hip-Hop. Top $ Raz explains, "my brother made sure I valued and understood the essence of the music and never let me get into the cookie cutter stuff." While in second grade, when he was just learning how to write, Top $ Raz penned his first rhyme and he hasn't looked back since. This week I caught up with him to find out more about the depth and diversity of his work, where he gets his incredible stage presence, and the inspiration behind his video for "King." Click Here...
