Born in SEATTLE WASHINGTON during the late 70's and raised up in the
projects
of Yesler Terrace and High point before moving to the east side of
Tacoma,
Da Ghetto Baby has seen it all since a very young age. The son of a
musician
who he knew little of, he was a very talented in basketball and
football as a youth and grew up with aspirations to be a
professional athlete. He enjoyed listening to all kinds of music his
mother would play but never in his mind did he think he would actually write and
record his own music.
The era of Young Krime AKA Da GHETTO BABY begins...Soon after his
releasefrom the Washington Department of Corrections he began searching for
someone to
produce his first song titled "WHEN I WAS SLANGIN", a song that he
wrote while on lock down. After several weeks of searching for a
producer to no avail his little brother hooked him up with his friend who's big
brother had a studio. Young Krime is born, working with his first producer,
WESLEY FARRISON the two immediately start producing Young Krime's first single "WHEN I WAS
SLANGIN". This same song won him his very first performance as a rap
artist at the club matrix in Federal Way. First place and thriving off
the victory at the rap contest Young Krime begins recording his first
independent release an E.P. titled "YOUNG KRIME" with a newfound producer and now
good friend JONATHAN C. This is before the days of compact disc when the
cassette tape was very successful. Young Krime is now in the rap game and on the
northwest rap scene. Enjoying the success of his first release he
started performing any and everywhere. Between 1992 and 1996 he performed in
Texas, California and WASHINGTON STATE with names like E-40 AND the Click, Brotha Lynch Hung
and more. He also featured on the Street Brothers single “Street Brotha’s”
and in 1997 hewas featured on the WAYOUT RECORDS Release "It's Rainin Dope". In 1998
and time for a change, Mr.Young Krime became also known as DA GHETTO BABY
and began his journey with the record label Felony Entertainment. To get
things started Da Ghetto Baby, Kaiser Soze (aka Awall) and Felony
Entertainment began doing shows in Texas and all over Western Washington promoting
the record label and artists along with the new radio station 104.9. With
the world awaiting the sound of Felony Entertainment they began
recording the first compilation release by the label at “Da Hook Up”
recording studio in Tacoma, WA. The compilation "WELCOME TO MY CITY
Chapter One” sold over 3000 units independently through Internet, retail and
street distribution directly to the public. Now after 2 years of preparation
