Dangerous Devil

BORN AND RAISED IN THE 801 (SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH), DANGEROUS DEVIL  HAS BEEN INVOLVED WITH HIP HOP SINCE THE AGE OF 6 YEARS OLD, WHEN HE BEGAN NOT ONLY LISTENING TO THE ART ITSELF EMERGING ON URBAN RADIO, HE ALSO WAS INTO "BREAKING", THE ART OF BREAK DANCING, WHERE HE AND OTHER KIDS IN GRADE SCHOOL P.E. CLASS WOULD HAVE BREAK DANCING CONTESTS. 

About the age of 11 years old, cds became affordable enough, he got his first cd player and 3 of Public Enemies'  albums from a local pawn shop. From there, he was hooked! He began listening to hundreds of different Hip Hop records, including: E.P.M.D., Gangstarr, Grandmaster Melle Mel and the Furious Five, LL Cool J, Heavy D and the Boys, Erik B and Rakim, World Class Wreckin' Cru and many other Hip Hop legends. 

But the breakthrough moment came when Dangerous Devil's  best friend won tickets from a local radio station to see Arrested Development.  He was hooked! And as soon as the pair got home from the concert that Friday, they began to write lyrics and come up with a name for the duo (P.risoner's O.f R.ap or P.O.R.). 

After a number of mixtape releases (that all sold out) over the years with his friend, multiple group name changes and a near record deal (with a major label), Devil decided to go solo and change his name to Dangerous Devil  in 1996.
