sweet success

If at first you don’t succeed try, try again. That
seems to be Atlanta rapper SupaStishun’s motto. “I started singing at first and
wasn’t really good at it so the next alternative was to rap,” says the winner of
Blackplanet.com 2007 Amplify Talent Search. BlackPlanet.com is part of the
Community Connect Inc., a family of niche social networking sites that has more
than 16 million members. Delivering his music to the masses was important to
SupaStishun and something Blackplanet.com helped him achieve.


“I am
trying to accomplish multiple things in the music. You have to satisfy yourself
as an artist and a fan of yourself and you have to satisfy the public and what
they want to hear. And you have to be able to evolve with what’s going on in the
music industry since its changing [every day],” he says.


This newfound
success has not slowed SupaStishun down. He is currently finishing up his first
album. “I am titling my album, The Grady Baby Album, [because] there [are] very
few [native Atlantans]. I think Grady Hospital [was] the [birthplace for a lot
of people]. No disrespect to people [who were born in hospitals other than]
Grady. But that’s the city hospital and whether you came from the ‘hood or
didn’t have any money, they brought you there for free. That is the [tentative]
name of the album right now.” – His current single, “Lollipop,” produced by
Baybe Lolife, can be heard at www.blackplanet.com. –adrienne
