Born & raised in California's San Francisco Bay Area, bE! takes influences from all walks, and sides of life. Formerly a high level athlete (noteably college basketball), he has applied the same tenacity to his life long passion for music, showing much promise along the way. bE! has recently been finishing the final stages of releasing his first retail work, "The CollidescoEP". A culmination of insight into the artist he has grown into, as well as the factors that influence his passion. "Art, to me, is simply a creative expression of life; music seemingly the most universal form...I'm learning how to control that expression." The project features fellow Bay Area Artists Mistah Fab, Indecent The Slapmaster, Bonafide, Alex Carbonel, Fedi Hayek & FM; as well as his ChangeUp Entertainment label mates. Baked with immense hometown support in Fremont, CA, along with it's neighboring cities, coupled with the ever-growing esteem of his peers, bE! is planning to open the eyes of a dying industry & genre. "It's difficult to imagine who I sound like. Most tell me I have a unique delivery & soothing voice...I'll take it!" He adds, "I'm a student of Hip Hop & have had an eclectic disposition to music since an early age. My most 'mainstream' or 'rap' influence was a living Tupac Shakur - the list stops making since shortly thereafter. I'm still a direct product of the 90's so I manage to stay relevant." When bE! isn't writing, performing, or in the studio, he's usually helping with ChangeUp Entertainment's label tasks or utilizing his graphic design, photo & video production abilities. This has enabled him to take full control of his career & awaiting success. All SERIOUS Inquiries To: nick23thomas@gmail.com bE! releases frequent FREE MIXTAPES.
