Fresh talent is not hard to find on the westcoast, artists are plentiful, the labels just need to take note, thats where we come in, we expose and we lift the lid on the pressure cooker of skills that is bubbling from the Bay to LA and beyond. Today we are shedding a little light on, Livewire, an artist many of you may already be familiar with through his group project, Selfmade. Selfmade is the collaboration of Eastwood (BWS), Young Cutty & Livewire, they have already released 2 Free mixtapes through Eastwood’s Offical Website. Over the years Livewire has created his style and honed his skills to give himself and edge and lyrical ability that others may lack.
Having been working on music since 5th grade and being influenced by people around him such as Macadoshis (2Pac’s Thug Life group) whom he lived with, Livewire is now ready to use his talents to prepare his debut album, “Live & Direct,” which he hopes to release in the second quarter of 2006.
“Live & Direct” is set to feature in-house production and up and comers including Face-Off from Kaos Recordz, DJ Chris Paul & Knocademus of Tha Network. Guests on the album will include, Eastwood, Roscoe, Bizzle, Tri-Star, Tone, Slo, Dizzle, B.Eazy, LostSouL, Micalobe & Yukmouth.
With the album will come a DVD trailer for a DVD Livewire is producing, “Live-TV,” which will feature Kurupt, Roscoe, Eastwood, The Game, Yukmouth, Battlecat, Loon, PaC-TeN, Dynamic Certified, Techniec, GailGotti, Master P, Lil Romeo, NBA & NFL players, Eye Candy and much more! As if that wasn’t enough he is also in a ‘supergroup’ called S.M.A (Selfmade Anterazh) which consists of Eastwood, Tri-Star, Tone, Livewire, YoungCutty & Slo Stallone.
