HOW ARE YOU? MY NAME IS DEREK I CAN'T WAIT TO PERFORM AT YOUR EVENT!!!
I hope this BRAND NEW YEAR has brought you BRAND NEW HOPE!
I am a solo independent rap artist, born and raised in Cleveland Ohio. Gospel rapper and singer who had the opportunity to travel and live in Atlanta, Georgia for 16 years as a licensed barber and rap artist,
performing at just about any and every rap event or club that was most popular for rappers to do in the late '90s and my 16 years of residence there.
So, in other words, I have over 28 years of experience in the music industry as a whole; and one year of that 28 years of experience performing live on stage.
Lots of love,
Derek

Normally a dj with a nice sound system. Any good dj. Whose familiar with gospel hip hop or just hip hop in general.
If not! There are several other ways to go about it some ways could be left to your discretion and what you may have in mind in terms of the DJ and sound system . In other words if you have access to your own sound system.
Or! just your own sound and stage equipment meaning speakers radio or whatever up to date means you have to play nice pleasurable sound through we have our own cordless mics.
However the cordless mics need to be plugged in to the auxiliary in the back of whatever units you were using. Unless you provide your own mics.
If you're able to provide your own sound system the price will be deducted from your total. If there's any more questions we can always communicate beforehand.
Do you have any special requirements that you wish to address? Can you afford to pay maybe $150 extra for a DJ if we bring one?
We do not provide lighting but we can possibly provide a sound DJ and lighting as well, but they will be an extra fee being that they have to be paid for their services.
Yes possibly
A worldwide event by the name of The lyrisists lounge. Also a Kelly Price and boy's II men, Promoted venue in atlanta georgia back in the nineties and early 2000's
Mostly used to perform in night clubs.However, I would love to perform more church church events, and concerts indoors, also corporate events! Whenever we can hold them.
Picnics maybe family reunions. I've never had the pleasure yet of performing at picnics and family reunions.
I would mostly like to become establised in christian spiritual and conscious corporate events and parties and functions.
I started rapping on the corner with my friends at the age of 15, mostly performing other rappers like L and run DM.C.S lyrics. Wow standing around on the corner of my street and at the park. And The car with my friends. Almost every single day, music was a humongous part of my life due to the connection I had through my parents and their love and fascination four music.
Every one I was around since I was a baby was motivated by music. They loved music, they had all of the 8 tracks, albums, 45 records, and then\nLater on cassette tapes.
So growing up?I was heavily influenced but by music into music. Very heavily. Everything we did pretty much incorporated outside of.
School school and work.
At the age of fifteen I think it was; my parents sent us to karamu house dancing acting theater. Where you're taught how to act and get to act and plays and sing in musicals and play instruments.If you like. My father bought me drums.
I also took flute took flute and clarranet classes in 6th
Number one michael jackson start off when I was five years old and the jackson five.Later on, marvin gay, Once I was 15, luther van ross freddie jackson. Debarge. Switch. L l cool j! run d m c. EPMD. PUBLIC ENEMY KRS1.
The earlier the better! I would start at ten am in the morning if I could! 😀
However, the standard in which we were performing was always nightclubs. 99% nightclubs and the rest, large worldwide events which were hosted in atlanta georgia,
similar to lyricist lounge and Jack the rapper in magnitude. In terms of the audience and the vast amount of artists and performers in Atlanta, Georgia, that we're coming from all over the world however.
That was the one
Percent maybe once a year, out of 100%!
Mostly nightclubs every single week without fail!
The performances were mostly with my hip-hop group out of Atlanta.Georgia called black folk. It was four of us whom gathered a huge underground following in atlanta, throughout the nineties in early two thousands!
I've only performed big shows.Just one maybe outside. It was okay, it was pretty nice.Didn't have a chance really to get used to it but it went well!
We performed under a huge gigantic tent all of the performers and acts that day.
I would love for the clients to have a say so! All of your ideas and thoughts are welcome! Matter of fact more than welcome! Any and all suggestions ideas are welcome!
They love us! It's been a fantastic ride.
They love getting on stage with us! They love cheering for us!
Even with me being sole artist now.
It just keeps getting better and better!
