Big Inf
Originally
hailing from the coveted Fordham section of the New York City borough, The
Bronx, Inf was destined to be a hip-hop ambassador from early on. Upon hearing
his very first rap record, it was most definitely a “love at first listen”
situation for Inf. At the time when hip-hop was still young, fresh and new, Inf
began to try his hand at DJing. Initially, he began by blending his father’s
Soul records with hip-hop instrumentals purchased from the local record stores.
That was how his pocket change would become familiar with being spent. With his
mixes becoming more familiar around the borough, Inf acquired a strong
neighborhood following. With this growing demand, Inf’s freestyle mixes
suddenly became valued and highly requested. Spinning and mixing, as well as
restructuring records became his “thing”, Before he knew it, Inf found himself
hosting block parties, school dances, talent shows and as he reminisces. “Wherever
there were people and music…so was I.” Naturally,
Inf’s appetite to be heard grew with his now burgeoning fan base. Politely
asking destiny to take a backseat, and while taking creative control to a whole
new level, Inf invited the microphone into the mix. Before long, he had become
a unique, polished and seasoned MC. With an already positive and easily
recognizable reputation, it wasn’t long before Inf cleared the airways, Inf
introduced the “Ivy League Mixtape Series”, hosted by none other than Foxx from
the legendary rap group, M.O.P. Soon after, Inf’s affiliation with 50 Cent’s
immortal rap group, “G-Unit”, Inf’s name on the New York Mixtape scene quickly
began to grow. Inf’s infamous Mixtapes were hosted by a number of hip-hop heavyweights
which included, Cam’Ron, Mobb Deep, The Game, Freeway amongst others. Remaining
true and loyal to the Music Game, Inf vowed to bring fun and quality music back
from an overly-saturated medium that is smeared in “poli-tricks”. Inf returned
to the roots from which he had steadily blossomed, and hosted a series of
Mixtapes with M.O.P. entitled, “All Out War”. Being it was ironically titled,
considering his emergence from the trenches of The Bronx with its humble
beginnings. This project expounded Inf’s rapid fire approach to rhyme. Armed with
an army of musical arsenal, manned with faithful music vets that he had
accumulated along the way, Inf found himself fully locked and loaded with a
dope collection of exclusive, unreleased material. Now that Inf was equipped with the experience
and exposure he needed to take his craft up to the next level, now came the
heavy task of maintaining a “fan first” mentality, especially during his
numerous interviews and Press Junkets. Shortly thereafter, Inf released his first
Album project, entitled, Better Dayz Ahead;, an album which featured familiar
Rap Artists like, Camp Lo, Mims, Sadat X, AG of “DITC”, DJ Doo Wop and
Snagapuss from the popular “Bounce Squad”. The album’s success landed Inf a feature
on the indie film project entitled, True Story.
