Album Notes

Agonee is a 21yr old Bronx native that has never lost a freestyle battle that he’s participated in; including the invites he received to perform in the infamous “Fight Klub” at venues around NYC. He is a feared lyricist in the battle rap environment where he occasionally does his thing against anyone willing to challenge him.

Once a rebellious young man but also hungry, with a pen and a pad, he feels he can make the world especially the streets stop and feel his words as if it were theirs. Agonee felt the need to take the surroundings he was exposed to and convert it into something more positive. To him it was music. Over the years he has grown to write lyrics of his own through experiences he has gone through and seen.

Agonee was influenced immensely by the late but great Biggie, Jay-Z, and Big “L”. These artists have had an enormous impact on his life and steered him to, as they did, bring something different to the industry. Motivation, hunger for success, and versatility is what Agonee is bringing to the game. Quoted from Agonee, "When I arrive on the scene you gonna have to work in order to survive."

The new cd NEW YORK 1 is compiled of 10 origial songs and 5 freestyles showcasing Agg's lyrical skills described above. It is definatley not the popcorn style of hip hop or rap you hear these days on mainstream radio. Take a listen and decide for yourselves
