A Conversation with Munch-Dog

Munch-Dog’s interest in music began as a young man growing up in St. Mary’s County, Maryland, when he heard two prominent hip hop stars-- “2pac” and “Scarface.” Their gifts, talents, and passion were expressed in a real way that could be related to, understood, and felt deeply by audiences of varied status, culture, and ethnicity.

With this inspiration, in 1993, he started freestyling. He would spend time practicing in his bedroom alone, and with his
group of friends. They quickly became some of the best freestylist in their area.

In 2000, Munch-Dog, Izy-O and two other members decided to form the rap click and record label “K.O.A.” (Knowing Our Aim). They made three mixed tapes and a compilation album. With the help of producers, “JT” and “Stretch” they became known for their lyrical ability and music beats. Performing all over the DMV with fellow KOA member “Relentlezz Dre” they became known for their stage presence and ability to draw a crowd.

In 2008, Munch-Dog embarked upon his solo career. He has accomplished the following:

• Recorded and released on iTunes, his first solo album, “Finally Here”
• Has opened up for artists such as: David Banner, Knowledge (from the Grammy award winning group, “Diggable Planets”), and more
• Recorded his
first music video-- “Baby Let me Know,” with the three time, DMV award winning, Skinny
Corleone
