I Am very grateful for my story.... And great stories need great storytellers.But what do you do when your story is a part of a history that people are ashamed to mention or even talk about?Welp.... This is, The Story Of My 1st Rap Group 🎤
I met Christopher Brian Bridges during the spring of 1988 at little league baseball practice in Oak Park, Illinois.Besides me, there were only 2 other "black" boys on the team.Since I recognized Chris from school, I asked him to play catch.And that's how I met the best friend I ever had.
We graduated Lincoln Elementary School in 1989 (6th grade).
We graduated Emerson Jr. High in 1991 (7th & 8th grade).
Sept 1991, Me & Chris went to the 1st high-school party of the year called a "MORP" ("prom" spelled backwards). While we were walking home, I was rapping Digital Underground's song, "Freaks Of The Industry."
Our newly acquired friend Kovasciar Myvette was walking with us & says, "aye man, you sound really good - do yall rap? - let's start a rap group!" Chris said he wrote a rap when he was "nine years old", I wrote poems & creative stories but we started a rap group at 13/14 years of age.
We used our weekly allowance to book time at 'Perry's home studio' off Madison Ave in Oak Park & recorded our 1st song "Something For Your Jamming Pleasure." Kovasci sampled Black Sheep's "The Choice Is Yours" & made the a beat.The 1st name of our group was "4 Steps Ahead" because my brother Claudell was supposed to be a background dancer.Haha!!!
Kovasci's mom worked for Ebony/Jet Magazine downtown on Michigan Ave & that's where we had our 1st photo shoot.We changed our name to "TIC, TAC, TOE" to be more commercially marketable like KRISS KROSS & ABC.Kovasci's mom also plugged us with with a more professional studio, where we cut a 4 song demo tape using the studio producers beats.The main song was called "My Girl." This also the studio where we met Twista when he was still "Tung Twista."

The music industry got a lot of hidden pens 👀Every credit doesn’t tell the full story.#HISEAR4MUSIK #4ize #Ghostwriting #Songwriting
Before social media ads… artists had to REALLY promote. 🚧🏙️
@4izeraps was putting stickers all over the city until people knew the name.
That’s real marketing, not luck. #HISEAR4MUSIK #4ize #MusicMarketing #HipHopCulture

4-IZE & LUDACRIS FREESTYLE | 1999
In 1991 Ludacris, 4Ize were in a trio by the name of Tic, Tac, Toe. Originally meeting in little league baseball practice in Oak Park, Illinois as told by 4Ize. They both attended elementary and middle school together as best friends. Fast forward to 1992 when Ludacris goes to visit his Dad in Atlanta for the summer (group would later join him that summer performing at open mics) before eventually moving from Illinois to Virginia before ultimately settling in Atlanta to finish high school. This is where Ludacris would go from humble beginnings at the radio station to ultimately becoming who we know his as today. This is actually a crazy story because I feel like the origin of his story always points to Atlanta but that is far from where his music journey began. Here you can see the early days of Disturbing The Peace. The Illinois alignment makes perfect sense now explaining the bond with @shawnnaworldwide need to get my hands on that Incognegro shirt never seen one in person!

Voir les histoires Instagram en secret
Le visionneur d’histoires Instagram est un outil simple qui vous permet de regarder et de sauvegarder secrètement les histoires Instagram, vidéos, photos ou IGTV. Avec ce service, vous pouvez télécharger du contenu et l’apprécier hors ligne quand vous voulez. Si vous trouvez quelque chose d’intéressant sur Instagram que vous souhaitez vérifier plus tard ou si vous voulez voir des histoires tout en restant anonyme, notre Visionneur est parfait pour vous. Anonstories offre une excellente solution pour garder votre identité cachée. Instagram a lancé la fonctionnalité Stories en août 2023, rapidement adoptée par d’autres plateformes en raison de son format engageant et temporaire. Les histoires permettent aux utilisateurs de partager des mises à jour rapides, qu’il s’agisse de photos, vidéos ou selfies, agrémentés de texte, emojis ou filtres, visibles pendant 24 heures seulement. Cette fenêtre de temps limitée crée un fort engagement par rapport aux publications régulières. Aujourd’hui, les histoires sont l’un des moyens les plus populaires de se connecter et de communiquer sur les réseaux sociaux. Cependant, lorsque vous regardez une histoire, le créateur peut voir votre nom dans leur liste de visionneurs, ce qui peut poser un problème de confidentialité. Et si vous souhaitez naviguer dans les histoires sans être repéré ? C’est là qu’Anonstories devient utile. Il vous permet de regarder du contenu public sur Instagram sans révéler votre identité. Il vous suffit d’entrer le nom d’utilisateur du profil qui vous intéresse, et l’outil affichera ses dernières histoires. Fonctionnalités du visionneur Anonstories : - Navigation anonyme : Regardez des histoires sans apparaître dans la liste des visionneurs. - Aucun compte requis : Regardez du contenu public sans vous inscrire à un compte Instagram. - Téléchargement de contenu : Sauvegardez directement du contenu d’histoires sur votre appareil pour une utilisation hors ligne. - Voir les highlights : Accédez aux Highlights Instagram, même après la période de 24 heures. - Suivi des reposts : Suivez les reposts ou l’engagement sur les histoires des profils personnels. Limitations : - Cet outil fonctionne uniquement avec les comptes publics ; les comptes privés restent inaccessibles. Avantages : - Respect de la vie privée : Regardez n’importe quel contenu Instagram sans être repéré. - Simple et facile : Aucune installation d’application ni inscription requise. - Outils exclusifs : Téléchargez et gérez du contenu de manière que Instagram ne permet pas.
