Who: SugaFree became a hip-hop legend for creating a style that others could not produce. During the era when it was fashionable to rap about gang banging and the gangsta lifestyle, the artist from Pomona gave sermons through his rap lyrics regarding livin' life, pimpin, and hustlin'. SugaFree set himself apart from other rappers through his use of obscure phrases and words that created his own rhythmic pattern and brought a new style of hip-hop to the game.
Today, SugaFree stands as one of hip hop's most important, yet underrated rappers of his time. His debut album served as a roadmap for the development of hip-hop's new groundbreaking style: the combination of pimpin and music. In 1997, SugaFree, with the assistance of hip-hop legend DJ Quik, sent shock waves through the rap industry with his debut single "If You Stay Ready" from his first album, "The Street Gospel." His lyrical differences were remarkable and immediately evident. With his innovative new style, SugaFree was able to sell close to 280,000 copies with limited exposure.
SugaFree continued to appear on the albums of many notable artists such as: DJ Quik, Snoop Dogg, Xzibit, Tha Eastsidaz, and E-40, for the next five years.
But SugaFree has always been much more than a pioneer of a new style of rap. He has been a revolutionary in changing the game and stretching the walls of hip-hop. Each of his songs contains a piece of his vision of how everyday life can really be if everyone would just take care of their shit.
Now in 2004, "The Pomona King," (Suga Free) with the ingenious production talents of Big Saccs& DJ Quik, will present to you through, Laneway Records/ Bungalo Records and distributed by Universal Music & Video Distribution, " The New Testament." Included in this media packet is the first single off of Suga Free's sophomore album, "Angry Enough".
Single: "Angry Enough"
Album: The New Testament
