Description:
With Atlanta filled with one hit wonders, rappers who portray lives they never lived and industry gangsters, the streets needed something new, something real; they needed Chiko. Chiko is from East Atlanta, Georgia - Kirkwood to be exact - is one of Atlanta's hottest new breakthrough rap artists. Considered by many local and national fans to be one of the realest lyricists out of the south since Outcast, T.I., UGK, and Jeezy. Chiko's music speaks directly from the heart of the streets, expressing real life pain and emotion through his words.
Chiko speaks the truth in his music; he brings life into his tracks, by testifying his experiences. While listening to his words, you can feel life in the streets of not only Atlanta but every hood, ghetto and project around the country. Chiko represents everybody trying to making it, hustling to survive, pushing and grinding until the last dollar is made.
After turning to the streets and a life of hustling at the age of 14, Chiko was arrested for trafficking cocaine in 2002 and served 42 months in prison. Shortly after his release, Chiko was arrested again and convicted to 26 months in 2007 for possession with intent. After returning home in 2009, Chiko returned back to his hustle but in a totally new way. Thinking about his family, who means the world to him, Chiko decided to follow the footsteps of his favorite rappers; 50 Cent, Tupac, Biggie and anyone else who stood strong for what they believed, and give the streets the voice they were asking for.
Changing his life wasn't enough. Chiko wanted to change the image of everybody in the streets by showing the world what it means to be a hustler."Hustling isn't just a word - it's a way of life. With a life filled with ups and downs, who could better represent what it meant to give your life, your all, and do whatever it takes to survive by any means necessary."
