Album Notes

Originally from Denver, CO, raised in Houston, Charles Reynolds a.k.a. "Charlie ReDD" is a 19-year old Hip-Hop artist currently on the rise as a superstar of the up and coming independent record label Keep Bangin Music. Charles considers himself a product of the hip-hop environment, having started rapping at an early age and forming relationships with individuals of whom he affiliates, like Made Real- minds at the end ready to enter another level. The influences behind Made Real are a combination of older families formed such as, SOLID-(Suns of light in darkness.) and HEIGHTS, both Made Real allies. Charlie ReDD of SOLID met up with Kash of HEIGHTS in Houston, Texas on Broadway Square (home of Made Real, where the fam was formed). Charlie ReDD was chosen to broadcast this new era with the release of Code ReDD (the album) on the record label Keep Bangin Music. This debut will ignite an eternal flame for Made Real, plus claim their spot in Hip Hop history.

The contents contained in this record are a mere reflection on this youngster's life and his day to day struggle to take the good, the bad, and the ugly and transform his game to new levels, while having a sense of direction through it all. Code ReDD was produced by NROB (Nathan Robinson), who is the co-founder and COO of Keep Bangin Music, LLC. The two (ReDD and Robinson) met while trying to get on at another label in 1999, in two different situations.

Charlie ReDD is looking forward to a bright future and bringing other members of his team along the way to accomplish goals and dreams set in the beginning. His fans can expect nothing but serious flow on this album, combined with hard-hitting tracks from the man behind the music, producer NROB. With the album Code:ReDD, to be released in Spring 2002, expect ReDD and Made Real to be highly visible on the scene. Chon!
