"Who’s Rell Dert"? "He’s that MC who’s killin’ everybody’s flow on the streets". That is what people began to say about him not too long ago in the Bay Area. You might have seen the promotional banners running on Dubcnn last year. And today we’d like to officially introduce you to Rell Dert with the complete package.
The 26-year-old Rell Dert was born in East Palo Alto and moved all over the Bay and Philly before he found a new home in South San Francisco’s notorious Cypress Park area. Rell started off with his first rap group L.A.S. (Lyrical Assault Squad) in the 90’s, and later followed up with shows and battles. So from all this, his name started to spread by word of mouth.
Rell has a wide range of influences: from Big L, Rakim, and Big Daddy Kane to Michael Jackson, Jimmy Hendrix and Luther Vandross. You can tell in his music he has been well seasoned by many genres of music. Rell Dert speaks the truth on each and every beat he lays his vocals over. His songs vary from just speaking about plain life in general to, "Hood Shit" and going hard. Rell captures all life in the simple touch of pen to paper.
To showcase Rell’s skills with the pen, Dubcnn has two tracks available for your listening pleasure. They are taken from his upcoming album "Derty Werk", due out March 6th on CTDC Records. You might have heard the lead single "Double Fisted" getting spins on radio stations in the Bay. The second track we got is called "Cut Back" and it features Keak Da Sneak & R-Kayne on a verse each. Both were produced by TB, CEO of CTDC.
