“Mr 360.” The only justifiable way to describe the verble antics of Mr Live.
Born In the borough of Brooklyn, Mr Live developed a way of speak that would set him apart from the average M,Cee. In 1990 Mr Live (then JAELIVE) was signed to PROFILE RECORDS under the group E&JAE and was embraced by such artist as RUN DMC, DANA DANE, and SPECIAL ED. After this, the group changed their name to BLACRAYN and spent this time on the New York underground circuit where they received many accolades for there live performances. At this point Mr Live had performed with such artist as LEADERS OF THE NEW SCHOOL, EPMD, PETE ROCK AND CL SMOOTH, NAUGHTY BY NATURE, GANGSTARR and many more hip-hop luminaries. In 1995, Mr Live broke off from BLACKRAYN and went solo, hitting every open Mic and show case in New York City.
At this time, He joined a hip hop/poetry group called THE VIBE KHAMELEONS and then touring Europe, (ENGLAND, FRANCE, and SWITZERLAND) with SHA-KEY, and RAZEL of THE ROOTS..
After this, Bobbito Garcia (89.9 Tec 9 radio show) released the under ground hit “SUPADUPA” on his FONDLE EM record lable, Becoming one of the hottest selling singles out. Following this, Mr Live, Big Ves, and EARL BLAIZE (ANTI-POP CONSORTIUM) established a lable called GET THESE RECORDS and proceeded to put out such underground hits as ”PLACEBO”(88 Whatsanames featuring TONY BONES), “ALL DAY” and “SPLASHING OVER MONICA”. In 2002 Mr Live teams up with MR LEN, (formally of COMPANY FLOW) and releases the single “WHAT THE FUCK”. Mr Live then teams with EARL BLAIZE, STEELO, BIG TRAP and BIG WILL to form DRAMA CLASS. Deep, melodic flows, meaningful lyrical content, and a blunt translation of life, makes Mr Live one of the most versitile and explosive MCees coming out of New York.
