No problem man. He actually first got his semi-shine on MTV's freestyle battle rap show in like 2004ish. He made it to the finals, but he judges robbed him of the title and give it to the guy from NY. He is part of a group called Frontline, so you won't find too many solo songs by him. But him and his partner Left are really good because they actually rap with a message. So definitely worth checking out if you like hip hop. And the producer that signed them (E-A Ski) is the Dr. Dre of the Bay Area so their production is always on point. I highly suggest that fans of hip hop go to 1:18 and 4:11 on this video. This is what hip hop is and this is when Locksmith shines. <object width="560" height="340"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/AWyxTC8Fu18&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/AWyxTC8Fu18&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="560" height="340"></embed></object> Here is some more from various different projects: <object width="560" height="340"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/fsHOQEVFctY&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/fsHOQEVFctY&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="560" height="340"></embed></object> <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/kcY_Pk1-I2E&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/kcY_Pk1-I2E&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object> <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/gpBdqBOvM-M&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/gpBdqBOvM-M&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>
