Shred (Da Verbal Tongue)

This North Carolina born MC started rhyming at a young age during Hip-Hop's golden era. He was heavily influenced by the likes of Kool G Rap, Big Daddy Kane, Wu-Tang Clan, Nas, Common, Jay Z as well as many others. Those early influences helped mold this MC's style. His effortless ability to ride beats, mixed with conscious thought provoking lyricism, capped off with a smooth delivery seems to touch listeners in a way few artists ever do. He has a knack for pulling the listener in and keeping them hanging on every word. He's been a constant over the last couple of years on the underground scene in Atlanta, performing all over the city in venues like Apache Cafe, The Atrium, Lyricist Lounge, Hip Hop Cafe, Centerstage, Jose Williams Park, Cafe 290 and many more. He's opened for veteran Hip-Hop artists like KRS-1, Raekwon, and Sadat X to name a few. Not only a solo act, Shred has joined forces with four other Atlanta based MC's (Snub Zero, Jaws Of Life, Big Rec. and KP) to form a group called The R.E.G.I.M.E. They are currently working on a project with legendary MC/producer Diamond D, of the D.I.T.C. Crew, due out soon. Shred and fellow R.E.G.I.M.E. member Jaws are also 2nd Generation Dungeon Family affiliates. With an arsenal of material recorded and much more in the works Shred Da Verbal Tongue in poised to take his music and his career to the next level.
