Born in the Riggs Park section of Washington, D.C., Lyriciss (ne’ Robert Bailey) knows both sides of the fence, as he was raised between DC and the Prince George’s County, MD suburbs. Now, at the age of 21, he’s already developed the mind of a businessman, focusing on the growth and future of his career. In 2009, he entered a situation with DMV-based label Inner Loop Records and has signed a production deal with EQuinox Professionals. He has also been inducted into a group of elite musicians with URB Magazine’s Next 1000 Program and has built a strong presence as an up-and-coming force, being posted consistently on the world’s most credible music blogs and websites, including 2dopeboyz.com, illroots.com, and many more. With the recent surge of attention brought on to the DMV (DC/Maryland/Virginia) hip-hop scene, Lyriciss is asked if he feels any competition in the race to get signed. “None at all”, he replies. “Why? Because, one: I know where my skills are with the lyrics…I know it, the people that hear the music know it, and that’s the end of that; two: because anyone in this area trying to make it and have true love forf the music, I show love to them and I consider them family. So competition isn’t even an issue to me. Hell, I’m not even worried about getting on, so much as getting my message heard. I have something to say, something that NEEDS to be heard. And when that happens, the world WILL listen.”
