Release Notes:
Hailing from Dallas, the artist B-Hamp was best known early in
his life for being a people person and class clown. At the age
of 7, Hamp or B Dash as his friends call him, was captivated
by rap music and would spend hours watching the television
show æThe BoxÆ memorizing the videos and lyrics to every song.
B-Hamp always craved to be the center of attention so he would
dance to be noticed by his peers and started freestyle rapping
in the 7th grade in the lunchroom. Realizing he had natural
talent Hamp started to write rhymes in junior high and soon
would help form the group Texxxas Made. The group spelled the
name with three xÆs to be unique and would generate a moderate
amount of success selling mixtapes, their most successful song
was entitled, æTwo PieceÆ a street classic which was featured
on a number of battle tapes throughout the South.
While with Texxas Made, B-Hamp also joined a second group
named Supreme Records/ 20 20 Clique and started to perform at
shows and continue to sell more mixtapes. The group had a
breakout single with æWork Your ShouldersÆ and the single
featured catchy a verse by Hamp and was the beginning of his
first solo hit æDo The Ricky BobbyÆ. With influence from his
friends, Hamp decided to write an entire song around his
original verse driving on the way to work one day. The night
before he watched the hit cult movie Talladega Nights starring
Will Ferrell, which would be pivotal in his concept of the
song æDo The Ricky BobbyÆ. He took what he wrote, recorded it
at his producer YoungstarÆs house and went the next day with
the single in hand to the local label, CKB Entertainment based
in Texas and Oklahoma. CEO Rickey Booker excited about this
new artist, decided to work with B-Hamp and urged him to
create a dance to go along with the hit song. It wasnÆt long
before æDo The Ricky BobbyÆ dance started to sweep the country
as the latest dance craze. ôI think we have something special
here with B-Hampö, says Booker with a confident smile on his
face, ôitÆs been a long time since I have been a part of
something that has taken off so fastö.
æDo The Ricky BobbyÆ single has been on BillboardÆs Top 100
for the past 8 weeks, and is one of the most requested and
added song on radio stations across the country. B-Hamp has
been featured in several major publications already including
a full page in Entertainment Weekly illustrating the dance
moves of the æRicky BobbyÆ. He also has a sponsorship deal
with Rockport Shoes through Big Tex Marketing and Yumms
Clothing secured by his management company Cold Frunt
Management.
Currently on tour Nationwide, B-HampÆs future looks bright,
ôIÆm just humbled by all of this and excited to keep moving
forward with the album and my projectö says Hamp, ôif you
donÆt believe in what youÆre doing than you donÆt need to do
it, and honestly I want people to see I am the real deal not
just a rapper with a catchy dance songö
