BEHIND THE MUSIC...

COMING OF AGEGrowing up in the hip hop fertile ground of Queens, New York, there was no choice for Kool Sphere but to completely immerse himself in all elements of the hip-hop culture that was sprouting from the hot city blocks of the late 80's and early 90's. Through hard work, focus, and determination, Kool Sphere became adept in everything from break dancing to graffiti. In the end though, he could not deny that he yearned to follow in the footsteps of such legends and pioneers like, Run DMC, Nas, Kool G Rap, Gangstarr, DJ Premier, and AZ, to name a few. After many years of completely entrenching himself with their styles and listening closely to every lyric and every beat developed in the "golden age" of hip hop, he finally started to develop his own signature style that pays homage to his predecessors and stays true to his own voice.In 2006 Kool relocated to Los Angeles and began to collaborate with his long time rhyming partner M.C. Reppond. The result of that collaboration was the formation of the powerhouse duo that would become Verbal Threat. Together they went on to record an underground classic single entitled “Reality Check ”which was produced by the legend himself, Dj Premier. This marriage of talent was pure magic. The thumping beat (thought of by many as one of Premier's all time best), together with the smooth and insightful lyrics, proved to be an instant classic that is undeniable once it's heard. The single sold when vinyl sales were at an all time low, proving that those in the know had to have this timeless track in their collection . The video for “Reality Check”, produced by Dan The Man from G-Unit Films, was played on MTV U and VH1. The video had more than 1,300,000 views on YouTube, and was nominated for an MTV VMA Award in 2008.By the Spring of 2009 Kool Sphere was in the studio recording tracks for his debut LP, Code of Ethics. This album contains 16 head knocking, well crafted bangers that raise the bar for the cookie cutter lyricism so prevalent in hip hop today. For Code of Ethics, Kool enlisted hip-hop legends Dj Premier, AZ, Blaq Poet, Smoothe Da Hustler, Tame-One, Lil Dap from Group Home, Smiley The Ghetto Child, and Wu-Tang Clan's Bronze Nazareth, to help close the deal on the already strong compositions. Code of Ethics also features a special appearance from Rhona Bennett, formerly of En Vogue. In the winter of 2009, Kool beat out thousands of contestants and was chosen as one of the top 10 finalists in the "Violator's Management Who Got Skillz" . He got flown from California to New York City to meet the panel and perform live in front of a celebrity panel.The future looks bright for the kid from Queens. Collaborating with DJ's from all over the world, and hip-hop legends from the golden era, Kool can only grow from here. But one thing is for sure, no matter what Kool Sphere does, he will always live by a Code of Ethics.Features: Kool Sphere has collaborated with Dj Premier, AZ, Kool G Rap, Smoothe Da Hustler, Lil Dap, Smiley The Ghetto Child(Group Home), Tame-One (Artifacts), Armageddon (Terror Squad), Blaq Poet, Sadat X, Da Beatminerz, Babu (Dilated Peoples), Wu-Tang Clan's Mathematics...*Stay tuned for a new Verbal Threat LP is in the works*© 2011 KOOL SPHERE
