“Ain’t Nothin’ Like…“ Big Six
He has lived a lifetime in a day. Opportunity was not a familiar “face” in his neighborhood. The mantra for survival was “Do what I gotta do…” and so he did.
Big Six might have seen or even owned a couple of silver spoons in his life, but it wasn’t because he was born with one in his mouth. For this Asbury Park New Jersey native, the daily struggle for shelter, food and clothes was a challenge that he faced head on. Six did not have the advantage of a stable home or supportive family structure. Like many young men in Urban America, he had to make difficult decisions which often resulted in uncomfortable consequences. His story is a raw, unadulterated portrait of an authentic life in the hood. Hip-Hop is the sword he yields and his lyrics speak an honesty which is at times frightening. His story is exactly what America wants to ignore, but is a piece of what is missing from commercial Hip-Hop: Truth.
Six’s journey began when he was 14 years old. With no real place to call home and very few people that he felt he could trust, Six became intimate friends with a notebook and pen. From a young age he learned that the gift of observation was a strength which could inevitably alter his life forever. He documented what he saw in bars of sixteen spat over whatever tracks he could find. It was his commitment to authenticity and a determination to succeed against all odds that prompted Six to take a trip to the 2003 Source Awards in Miami. Armed with a duffle bag of CDs and a suitcase full of dreams, Six left the entourage at home and hit the Sunshine State to “…do what he had to do…”
When Big Six arrived in Miami, he simply took his CDs to the main hub for the event and proceeded to sell his wares. It was his confident swagger and business-like demeanor that prompted an associate of Kasem Coleman [formally of Jive Records and Nervous Records (Hip-Hop)] to take note of Six. The associate facilitated a meeting between Six and Kasem. He said “I saw potential--bottom line. The voice was right, he had swag and a good demeanor…” Six became a willing student/partner in his relationship with Kasem. Kasem helped him develop S*E Records and was able to secure a joint venture with Nervous Records. With Nervous Records cosigning for him the visibility and credibility propelled him above the multitude of independent rappers in the industry.
Six went full throttle with the joint venture with Nervous and financed everything the single and video “Get Rich”/“In My Hood” on S*E Records/Nervous Records. The national independent success of the single on college radio chart networks such as Rap Attack Lives and Rap Network, in addition to the regional nationwide support he received for “Get Rich/In My Hood”, had an overwhelmingly positive affect on his development as an artist and a businessman.
Six did a national promo tours with artists such as PMD of EPMD/Hit Squad fame as an artist, participating fully in the In Store appearances, as well as radio (the College stations, the Hot stations, the Power stations, XM radio in DC, and Sirius in NYC) and club performance dates. Big Six also toured as support for the A-Alikes on the Ghostface Killah “Fishscale” and later Tyrese’s “Alter Ego” tour which was a nationwide House of Blues venue tour. Six learned invaluable lessons on artistry and the business of music from a major label and an Indie label perspective. He gained a more thorough understanding of how to position himself for longevity in the industry.
With the release of his new street single “Put it Down!" and the yet to be titled EP Big Six is poised to have renewed awareness and branding while retaining his independent spirit. A peer market favorite from coast to coast, Big Six’s smooth, laid back style almost contradicts the hardcore content he spits. His style is a subtle verbal ambush that teases your mind to expect one thing, yet in actuality delivers something completely unexpected. Big Six' truth will radiate to everyone who hears his music.
