艺人介绍

by Jason BirchmeierOne of the first rappers to come out the Midwest in the early 90s, MC Breed experienced modest success while based in Flint, MI, before leaving the Midwest to work with the D.O.C. in L.A. and TOO|$HORTToo $hort in Atlanta. Breeds debut album, MC Breed & DFC, was released on the tiny independent label SDEG (4103) and pictures Breed and da Flint Crew (DFC) in their b-boy stances, donning gaudy Detroit Tigers apparel. The album merged the East and West Coast sounds of the time, being both lyrical and funky; it also spawned a successful single, Aint No Future in Yo Frontin, which was later sampled for Ice Cubes Wicked, and helped keep the album on Billboards R&B chart for a whopping 52 weeks. Following this initial success, unprecedented at the time for a Midwestern rap act, Breed adopted more of a West Coast gangsta sound like many success-hungry rappers of the time. He began working with D.O.C., who helped write and produce some of the songs on Breeds third album, The New Breed. By this point, the Flint native had left the Midwest and DFC behind and was networking on all coasts. His efforts proved successful when his fourth album, Funkafied, peaked at number nine on the Billboard R&B chart in summer 1994. However, Breed would never match the success of that album, and subsequent releases throughout the 90s — many of them featuring TOO|$HORTToo $hort, who Breed became close with when the two re-located to Atlanta — didnt chart nearly as well, partly because Breed never signed a major-label contract. Nonetheless, he remained prolific as an underground rapper, releasing generally an album a year and aligning himself with the Dirty South movement.
