"I was 15 years old when we got signed to do the Power Move single, shit was mad crazy one minute we where all kicking rhymes on the street, dropping little demo's and then the next thing Bam! We had this deal, a single, then a tour, next thing Underground Street Tapes which was a hot label for it's time invited me and Steg.G down to their office. They laid out this project and plan and offered us to front their roster, that's when "The Next Level" was produced.

The Hip Hop fans stood up and took notice, praise was heaped upon this young rapper and it was without doubt that a follow up to the U.S.T debut would not be far behind and when it came there was to be no disappointment. Captivating rap hungry fans with unique and innovative lyrics Freestyle Master dropped the amazing "Mind Games" EP. The biggest selling Scottish Hip Hop joint at it's time also enjoyed the success of mass media attention, one track in particular was added to play lists throughout the country "It's Fresh" was the hailed as "an innovation in British rap." Tim Westwood became an admirer of the Freestyle Master after picking up on Mind Games and has become a fan of his releases since.

"Back in the day's John Peel and Tim Westwood broke everything that was hot for the moment so for the two of them to be play listing me on my second EP and describing tracks like "It's Fresh" as (put this in your Top 10 tracks of the year) everything was falling into the structure we were building for our Hip Hop career."

All hail the "The Journey" LP described by Hip Hop Connections magazine as "an album which will go down in the annals of UK Hip Hop history". Even Lenny Kravitz expressed interest after hearing the album he attempted to sign Freestyle Master and Steg.G to a new label he was creating in the UK. Deciding that the time was right to create a fresh new label Steg.G created "Powercut Productions" the label which they felt had everything to offer. Freestyle Master placed his future in the hands of the indie master of quality Hip Hop.

"Everybody wanted something out of Hip Hop in the UK back then and rather than letting someone who just wanted to tap into something which was the hot minute, we knew this was our life and decided to get our own label up off the ground and that's when Powercut was born"

Collaborations with some breaking names in the UK, Freestyle Master developed a taste for quality finished product and that is what came next in the EP "Universal" with the big hitting track "The Realm" featuring Gamma, this created new avenues and gained new fans who where being swayed by the enormity of the whole new sound coming from the Powercut label. No more disappointment as the label released their collective artists album "Clyde Built" LP with the Freestyle Master dropping one of the hottest joints of the year "Trouble Maker."

"Right now I've got my album "Natural Selections" just about to hit the street. The whole track list from start to finish is without doubt my Master Piece, this is what I've been working hard on for the past year and it's what I've been working towards since I started in Hip Hop."

Explosive - sums up the new Freestyle Master LP. Probably the most significant rap album in UK Hip Hop as nowadays it is hard to find a flawless musical journey in British Rap but this album not only does just that it should buy a return ticket because there needs to be a follow-up.
