ʻO Boldy James he mea pena rap kaulana mai Detroit. Hana pū ʻo ia me The Alchemist a hoʻokuʻu i nā hana chic kokoke i kēlā me kēia makahiki. He ʻāpana ia o Griselda.
Mai ka makahiki 2009, ua hoʻāʻo ʻo Baldy e ʻike iā ia iho he mea pena rap solo. Ua ʻōlelo ka poʻe loea a hiki i kēia manawa ua waiho ʻia e ka kaulana kaulana. ʻOiai ʻo kēia, ua ukali ʻia ka hana a James e kahi pūʻali koa miliona miliona o nā mea pā.
'Ōlelo Aʻo: ʻO ka Mainstream ke kuhikuhi e kū nei ma kekahi wahi no kekahi manawa. Hoʻohana pinepine ʻia ka huaʻōlelo e pili ana i nā ʻano kaulana i ka hana kiʻi.
Leʻaleʻa ʻo ia i nā "fans" me nā mele i kuhikuhi pono ʻia. Ma nā mele, ʻaʻole kānalua ʻo James e kamaʻilio e pili ana i nā "hana lepo" e hui pū me kāna moʻolelo. ʻO Rap mai Baldy James he hanu o ka ea hou no ka poʻe aloha mele e "kauo ana" mai ka hip-hop maʻamau. ʻAʻole pono kāna mau hana mele i nā "hopena kūikawā nui", a ma laila ka "ʻono" holoʻokoʻa o ka hana a ka mea mele.
ʻO ka wā kamaliʻi a me nā makahiki ʻōpio o Boldy James
ʻO ʻAukake 9, 1982 ka lā hānau o ka mea pena. Ua hānau ʻia ʻo James Clay Jones III (inoa maoli o ka rapper) ma Atlanta (Georgia), ke keiki a James Clay Jones Jr. a me Tony K. Broadus. Hoʻomanaʻo ʻo Boldy i kona wā kamaliʻi me kahi ʻōlelo kaumaha i kona leo no nā kumu he nui.
I hoʻokahi makahiki ma hope o ka hānau ʻana o ke keikikāne, neʻe nā mākua i ka hale, aia ma Detroit. I loko o kēia manawa, ʻaʻole i ʻike ka ʻohana i nā manawa maikaʻi loa. Ua ʻeha nui ke poʻo o ka ʻohana i ka hana.
I ka hopena o nā makahiki 80, ua kāhāhā nā mākua o Baldy i ka lono o kā lāua male male. Ua huhū loa ʻo ia i ka kaʻawale ʻana o kona mau mākua. I kēia manawa ua hana ka makua kāne i ka hānai ʻana i ke kāne. ʻO ke kanaka hōʻoluʻolu wale nō i kēia manawa he mele.
Ua lilo kona wā kamaliʻi a me kona ʻōpio ma kekahi o nā wahi pōʻino loa o kona kūlanakauhale hānau. Ua ulu ka hewa ma ia wahi. I kēlā me kēia ʻanuʻu, ua pilikia nā kamaʻāina o Detroit. ʻO ia hoʻi, ua ola ka mea kūpono.
ʻO kekahi o nā mea hoʻomanaʻo kaumaha loa iā James, ʻo ia ka moʻolelo o ka pepehi ʻia ʻana o kāna hoaaloha maikaʻi loa e kona kaikunāne. I kēlā manawa, he kamaliʻi wale nōʻo Boldy, akā, ua "paʻi" kēia hanana pōʻino i kona poʻo aʻaʻole makemake e haʻalele i kona hoʻomanaʻo no ka manawa lōʻihi.
Mai ka wā ʻōpio, ua hana koʻikoʻi ʻo James i ka ʻoihana mele. ʻO ka mua, lanakila ʻo ia i ka hoʻokūkū kālena. A ʻo ka lua, ua haku ʻo ia i nā hana rap a ka mea kākau. ʻO ka wā kamaliʻi paʻakikī a me ka hala hewa i ʻike ʻia i ka mele a James. I kāna mau hana, ʻaʻole ia he mea makehewa ke hoʻopā ʻana i nā kumuhana ʻaʻole i hauʻoli loa i ka lehulehu.
Ua puka ke kanaka ʻōpio mai nā papa 9 wale nō. I ka wā o ke kākau ikaika ʻana i nā hana rap, lawe ʻo ia i ka pseudonym haku mele ʻo Boldy James. Ma kekahi o nā nīnauele, ua kamaʻilio ʻo ia e pili ana i ka mōʻaukala o ke ʻano o ka inoa o ke kahua:
"He hoaaloha maikaʻi ʻo James Oseli i kūʻai aku i ka cocaine a me nā lāʻau lapaʻau ʻē aʻe. Ua kapa ʻia ʻo ia e nā kamaʻāina ʻo Boldy. Ua pili au iā ia a makemake au i ka leo o kona inoa. Ua pepehi ʻia ʻo ia. Ua lawe au i kāna mau hua mua noʻu iho e hoʻomau i ka inoa o kahi hoa ... ".
ʻO ke ala noʻonoʻo o ka rapper Baldy James
Ma mua o ka hoʻokuʻu ʻana i kāna moʻolelo mua, ʻike ʻia ka mea pena rap ma Cool Kids mixtapes. Hiki ke lohe ʻia ma nā mele mele o BBQ Wings a me Tires.
I ka makahiki 2011, ua hōʻike ʻia kahi mixtape solo, i kapa ʻia ʻo Trappers Alley Pros and Cons. Ua kapa ʻia kekahi mau mea hoʻokani mele i ka hana a Baldy James - kekahi o nā mea haʻahaʻa loa.
I hoʻokahi makahiki ma hope mai, Consignment: Favor For a Favor, ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia ka Redi-Rock Mixtape. Ua hoʻokipa maikaʻi ʻia ka hōʻiliʻili e ka lehulehu, ka mea i hoʻoikaika i ka mea pena rap e neʻe i ke ala i hāʻawi ʻia. Ma ka nalu o ka kaulana, hoʻokuʻu ʻo ia i ka mini-album Grand Quarters.
Ma ʻOkakopa 15, 2013, ua hoʻokuʻu ka mea pena i kāna album mua, My 1st Chemistry Set, i hana piha ʻia e The Alchemist. Ua ʻoi aku ka LP ma luna o nā mele he 13. Ua loaʻa i ka album nā manaʻo maikaʻi mai ka poʻe loiloi mele. Ua ʻōlelo ka mea loiloi, ʻo Cheyne Japal:
"Ua kūpono ke ʻano maʻalahi o ke ʻano o Baldy James me ka hana liʻiliʻi a Alchemist, e hāʻawi ana i kahi hana maʻalahi a lohi mai kahi mea hana haumāna...".
ʻO ka pāʻani lōʻihi mua o ka mea pena rap he ʻano ode i ka Detroit outskirts, i hoʻomaʻamaʻa ʻia me nā manaʻo kaumaha a me ka pessimistic. Ua hōʻike maikaʻi ka moʻolelo i kekahi mau ʻoiaʻiʻo o ka biography o ka mea pena a lilo i alakaʻi i kona ola.
I ka makahiki 2013, ua hoʻomaka mua ʻia ka mixtape Trappers Alley 2. ʻElua mau makahiki ma hope mai, ua hōʻike ʻo ia i kahi mixtape hou, i kapa ʻia ʻo House of Blues. Eia hou, ua hoʻopiha ʻia kāna discography me ka mini-LP The Art of Rock Climbing. Ma ka nalu o ka kaulana, ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia ʻo Live at the Roxy (Caps & Tabs) a me Latr (Tabs & Caps).
ʻO Boldy James: nā kikoʻī o ke ola pilikino o ka rapper
ʻAʻole makemake ʻo ia e kamaʻilio e pili ana i kona ola pilikino. Inā manaʻoʻiʻo ʻoe i ka poʻe nūpepa, a laila no ka manawa i hāʻawi ʻia, he hoʻokahi ʻo Boldy. Hoʻohana nui ʻo ia me kāna keiki. Me ka makuahine o ke keiki, ʻaʻole i lōʻihi ka pilina o ka mea pena rap.
ʻO ka manawa kēia no nā poʻomanaʻo tabloid e pili ana i ke aloha o ka mea pena rap. 'Ōlelo ka mea pena no kēia manawaʻaʻoleʻo ia i mākaukau e hoʻopaʻa i ka pahu me ka wahine.
Boldy James: ʻO ko mākou mau lā
Aia ʻo ia i kahi makahiki i kēia manawa kahi e lohi nei ka hapa nui o nā rappers, inā ʻaʻole lākou e noʻonoʻo. Akā aia ʻo Boldy i ka poʻokela o kona ola a ʻaʻole ia e haʻalele i ke kahua.
I ka makahiki 2020, ua pilikia ʻo ia me ke kānāwai. Hiki i ka mea pena ke hele i ka hale paʻahao, akā i mea e pale aku ai i kēia, ua koi ʻia ʻo Boldy e "hoʻohaʻahaʻa." Ua hoʻohana ʻo ia i ka manawa me ka pōmaikaʻi nui loa, no laila i kēia makahiki ua hōʻike ʻo ia i kahi chic longplay.
Ua loaʻa iā ia kahi hoʻopaʻi hoʻopaʻa ʻia, a ua loaʻa i kāna poʻe pā ka LP The Price of Tea ma Kina. Ma ke ala, ʻo kāna album maikaʻi loa kēia no 2021. ʻO ka lua o ka hui studio LP e American rapper Baldy James a me ʻAmelika DJ a me ka mea hana ʻo The Alchemist - maikaʻi, "hauʻoli" hele i nā mea pā. Ua hoʻokiʻekiʻe ʻia ka moʻolelo e 12 mau mele ʻoluʻolu.
Akā, ʻo ka disc i hōʻike ʻia ma luna nei ʻaʻole wale ka mea hou o 2020. Ua hoʻokuʻu ʻo Griselda Records ʻo Baldy i ka Versace Tape, kahi hui hui pū me ka mea hana ʻo Jay Versace. A, ʻae, pono mau ka moʻolelo i ka nānā ʻana o ka poʻe aloha mele.
Ua hui hou ʻo Producer Alchemist lāua ʻo Boldy James i ka makahiki 2021 e hoʻopaʻa i kahi hōʻuluʻulu hui. ʻO Benny The Butcher, Earl Sweatshirt, Roc Marciano, Currensy, Freddie Gibbs a me Stove God Cooks. Ua hele pū nā moʻolelo hewa i ka poʻe aloha mele i makemake i nā mele kula kahiko.
Ua hōʻike ʻo Rapper a me Real Bad Man i ka hui ʻana o Killing Nothing. E hoʻomanaʻo i kēlā makahiki i hala, me The Alchemist, ua hoʻokuʻu ka rapper i ʻelua mau LP piha piha. Ua hoʻomaka hoʻi kēia makahiki nona me kahi hui "juicy". I loko o ka album hou, ʻaʻole hoʻāʻo ʻo Baldy me ke kani. Heluhelu ʻo ia me ka leo monotonous ma nā kumuhana kumuhana i nā mea kani jazz.
