Bio
A prophecy is defined as the foretelling or prediction of what is to come.
When a
little boy in Saginaw, Michigan started piano lessons in the fifth grade,
there was a sure
sign that he would become a major player in the music arena. Picking up the
bass guitar
and the saxophone along his way to becoming one of the hottest new talents
in Hip Hop,
Prophecy shines both as both a producer and lyricist. Originally pursuing
production exclusively, it was Prophecy’s older brother Shannon (who also
rapped under the stage name Science) that encouraged the young lion to
finally put his thoughts into words on a pad back in 2001. Although
Prophecy realized he had a knack for rhyming, it wasn’t until the
unfortunate loss of the same encouraging brother that he vowed to pursue
rapping wholeheartedly. Armed with new determination to keep his
brother’s legacy alive, Prophecy moved to Huntsville, Alabama and began
hitting the studio hard to record his first project entitled 2 for 2. He
would follow that up with his second album, Created Above Equal while
simultaneously gaining features on various mixtapes. Prophecy also began
building his production credits by making beats for local acts on the
Alabama scene. With his latest releases, Due Season and Behind Bars, Proph
aims for the sky by showcasing his growth lyrically and sonically. The
beats are neck-snapping, hard-hitting, and soulful----many at the same
time. The wordplay is also clever and well-delivered. Prophecy has
developed into the complete package and if his music is any indication of
what’s to come, the future is looking very bright.
