T.R.A.C.
Bass Fueled Mischief, 4HERO, HELLFIRE MACHINA, MC ASTRO, TRACE MOTIVATE, LEWIS PARKER
Influences:MJ (the Great), Run DMC, JB, ATCQ, Rakim, Pete Rock n CL Smooth, and a host of others Band Interests:To keep good music alive and be a successful artist...Living thru music...cant ask for anything more...Biography:
When it comes to Hip Hop, Brooklyn New York is home to many great Mc’s and artist of many genres. To anyone who has ever visited the borough knows that Brooklyn has many different types of cultures, ethnicities, and renowned musicians living within some of the most historic neighborhoods in the world. Growing up within the melting pot has inspired the MC known as T.R.A.C. His name alone clearly states what his intent is all about….” To Rule And Conquer”.
T.R.A.C (aka Terry Nickz) is Brooklyn born and influenced. This NYC resident is a crafty songwriter/ lyricist who can adapt to many different styles. He takes pride in being original and “pushing the envelope” while still keeping that classic Hip Hop sound in every song he touches.
T.R.A.C.’s influences range from early 80’s to mid 90’s which is often dubbed “The Golden Era”. Being the student at that time has shown him many things through the sounds of Rap, Classic soul, R & B to Classic Rock. His is mind is very much open to world so when he expresses himself it becomes an emotional ride. If not for the lyrics then TRAC definitely has the voice.
The BK Mc’s first real taste of music came from an experiment in the NYC Drum n Bass world. He along with legendary Dj ICUE created a song called “Next Level #hit”. Released in 1999-‘01 on the “This is Liquid Sky” compilation, the song fused Jungle and Hip Hop 2gther bringing something a little different and refreshing to the world. This kind of music was labeled ‘Hip-Step’. It was an underground DnB success and is still is played from time to time. The experience has showed TRAC’s true passion and love for music and has given him a lot of respect in the music scene. Thru his 10 yr career he has entertained and hosted in many spots throughout North America including Canada.
In 2007 TRAC was predominately featured in a Boosey and Hawks Project which was produced by UK Hip Hop Legend Lewis Parker (Home Grown Hip Hop). This compilation had cinematic beats laced with street gritty/conscious lyrics. The tandem eventually worked out for the better as it was released by the Famous movie scorers and planned for a re-release forthcoming.
In the Present, TRAC has been hosting and doing plenty shows, prepping his mix-tape, as well as putting the finishing touches on a future project with world renown Producer Marc Mac (of 4hero). The routes of paying dues were heavy but things are finally looking more rewarding for the veteran MC. His songs will be a familiar one in your player. He came to Conquer.
