Tell us about Yourself and Your music:
Michael Jackson. Tupac. Prince. While history proves that the pursuit of money turns musicians into generic copycats, each generation boasts one renegade who revolutionizes the genre and elevates it to a higher stratosphere. MJ, Pac and Prince knew their transformative power and so too does the New York bred rapper, A-NoN the Carnegie Kid. Raised in one of the largest projects in the nation, Starett City, A-NoN's childhood chronicles the kind of rag-to-riches story that hip hop loves to tell. Growing up in Brooklyn since the tender age of six, his childhood memories consist of prostitutes roaming the streets, gunshots reverberating outside project walls, the ruthless harassment of callous cops and the lure and enticement of money and crime. In the depths of the city's concrete jungle, A-NoN, like most of Brooklyn's now incarcerated or deceased youth, spent years captivated by the risk of the drug game and the thrill of escaping unscathed. His hardship cultivated a restless spirit that now motivates his drive, a fearlessness that enables him to take risks and a boldness that will never go ignored. Coalescing with a pure artist's soul and an affinity for the spotlight nurtured by his supportive family, the Carnegie Kid was destined to become a star. Born with a flair for innovation and an extraordinary mind, the charismatic artist performed in plays since he was 8 and wrote rhymes since he was 15. In the words of his mother, he was sprinkled with the gold confetti from Michael Jackson's "Can You Feel It?" video, and everyone around him knew it. For him, rap was not simply the newest hustle, but one of many outlets for an inventive, ingenious imagination. In high school, he silently watched a cipher of hip hop hopefuls, knowing the creative spark within him could char everything in its path while others' flicker and fade. He went home, wrote a rhyme and spit it the next day; and the rest is black history. His delivery is retro-inspired but forward-thinking, braggadocios but endearingly humble, me-against-the-world mad but gloriously optimistic. His lyrical content resonates with the struggling artist and the thug, from the college campus to the street corner. His music touches souls and engages minds; it amuses, entertains, challenges and inspires. Every song on his debut is as deeply musical as his remake of Prince's "Sign of the Times," and as effortlessly clever as his ode to vanity, "Narcissus." He is the amalgamation of Chuck D's vivid storytelling, Jay-Z's biting wit and Muhammad Ali's relentless, unwavering swag. With roots in the greatest mecca of hip hop, A-NoN is defined by a fierce determination to soar to heights unparalleled. One-man shows and original movie scripts are anticipated pit stops on his road to infamy. While A-NoN's debut album title, Black History in the Making, would suggest he joins a line of predecessors, the rapper/songwriter is undeniably one of one. There's a sense of wisdom, burst of creativity, well of knowledge and expansive range of emotion that lifts the Carnegie Kid above his musical peers. This distinction is what the Kid believes enables him to breathe life into the ailing genre. "Hip hop is on life support," he laments. "There's nothing creative and the best rappers are from '98. When rock & roll was lacking, there was a change when groups like the Killers debuted. Now, we're on the horizon of a hip-hop explosion, and I'll spearhead the new wave of powerful music and put the focus back on lyrics, wit, creativity and intelligence." Indeed. Like any pioneer in the music business, Carnegie's goals stretch far beyond record sales, spins on Hot 97 and video plays on 106 and Park. He wants to bring about change. While hip hop has become just a means to a rim-spinning, bottle-popping end for today's rappers, it's a conduit for A-NoN to express his varying moods, from angry to pensive to slick to celebratory to conscious. While most hip-hop artists cite Big and Jay-Z as their influences, Carnegie will name the famous band, The Doors, rock legend, Jimi Hendrix and pop God, Prince, as his inspirations. Shocking, perhaps, but if you let Carnegie tell it, he never fit neatly into a box. Whether that box was a square coffin where his peers met their fate, a Brooklyn jail cell where he could've ended up, or the love box of women trying to woo him to distraction, the Kid's spirit is one that always prevails. In an era of senseless murders, life sentences and child support sagas, his success is the stuff legends are made of. And his music is history's new soundtrack. Bear witness
