Born in Flatbush, Brooklyn NYC, Black Trackz is on a mission to reimagine the classic NY boom-bap into a new world groove.
The 1st record Trackz ever owned was "AJ Scratch" by Kurtis Blow, bought by his sister. This would be the beginning of Black Trackz long love affair with hip hop.
After moving to NYC's notorious East New York, Trackz began writing rhymes and moved in and out of several groups before being introduced to the art of beat-making by producer BPM (Cam'Ron - "Tomorrow"). Eventually a chance run-in with Ruff Ryderz producer, Mr Devine, would offer the opportunity to learn under the Devine's wing. Trackz not only learned how to master the MPC 2000, but picked up the chops of the music business hanging out in the Ruff Ryderz studio.
His grimy soul sound is crafted for and by the streets, but inspired by a collage of noteables such as: Run Dmc, KRS One, Stone Temple Pilots, Earth Wind And Fire, Black Sabbath, & more.
These days you can catch Trackz working on music for the Bronx goon squad Swamp City Music, M.O.P. vet Billy Danze's We Build Hits label, Hand2Hand Ent. and Caktuz's #AMASLife camp.
