| Bigg Mann, born in San Francisco, California, has street roots all over the Bay. From Novato to Richmond, Oakland to Marin City. Back and forth from the Bay to Sacramento, he found music had been his calling. Bigg has produced music not only himself, but other artists in the game as well. With 3 albums released and more in the making, there is no shortage on creativity. Bigg Mann’s passion for music can be compared to that of Tupac Shakur.
Growing up without a father, Bigg understood the struggle at a very young age. In essence, Bigg Mann AKA Da Bigg Chief is a self promoted artist. He also engineers, mixes, edits, and masters most genres of our music today.
Bigg has had the pleasure of working with artist in his hometown , such as Doey Rock, Marvaless, J. Gibb, Keak Da Sneak, and Coalition a Rock/ Rap band also from Sacramento. that’s just to name a few. Being president of his own independent label, Geddog Records, this journey has not been easy. This music is his life.
Bigg Mann is currently working with artists of his own who are all just as passionate about their music. Those artists are Mr. Hyphy, Miss Me.. and Big Nugget the Wiseman. He also has an R&B album in which he produced, lyrics by Geo. At the same time he is always looking to do something fresh and new. With the way the music industry changes, you have to be able to adapt. Bigg Mann is that chameleon.
Bigg Mann started off with a sixteen bar verse. After thirteen years in the music industry, he has learned to produce and manufacture his own projects from start to finish. In the beginning he entered local contests, and won a few. Including the Rap Attack contest held in Downtown Sacramento. He went on to win first place. He also entered various radio freestyle contests. Holding championship for 6 weeks straight on Sacramento’s local 102.5. E-Bro held the contest back then, who now works for Hot 97 in New York City.
Bigg Mann has a way of capturing his audience. He has videos on myspace and you tube for public viewing. This is a good way for him to get feedback from the fans and consumers. Positive or Negative. Feelings have to be set aside in this industry today.
With the release of his first album Kirizma, He has had the opportunity to network and gain knowledge of this industry. Although most were sold from the trunk or on the street as they would say. Bigg Mann is known Nationwide for accomplishments done from where he lives.
Bigg has had the opportunity to open up for such artists as Layzie Bone from Bone Thugs in Harmony, Corrupt in Tiajuana, and E-40 In Roseville, Ca. I still hear talk of those shows today.
Right now Bigg Mann Has finished up his latest project “Joe Clark” Along with Miss Me'.
No matter what happens, if this man didn’t have a way to make music, he would find a way and would still get his work done. This music is Bigg Mann’s passion. Bigg now has the opportunity to produce, record, mix and master his own music. He has gone so far as to learn the about his equipment, troubleshooting and diagnosing problems. Working with Pro-tools 7.0 and various plug-ins can be confusing sometimes for some people. Being in show business, artists have to put 110% in whatever they do in order to get noticed. Bigg goes at it full force 150% to get the job done. He believes its all worth it, as long as someone listens to and learns from his music. |
