Richard “RICH LAW”
Lawson Jr was born May 16 in Chicago’s south side. Everyone always
knew that music would play a major role in his life. Listening to the
tune of his uncle’s guitar as he played and did shows with his band,
led to a love for the music most unheard of for a youngster.
The moment of clarity came when he bought LL Cool J’s cassette tape
called “I’m bad”. From that point, he knew that Hip Hop was the path
of life he wanted to pursue. Growing up in the Englewood area of the
city posed a stumbling block for that dream, as “Hustling” became the
#1 focus, putting music to the side.
After all the ups and downs it took a close friend to make Richard
come back to reality and recognize the talent he had to offer. Ever
since, he has recorded numerous hits, did shows all over the city and
in different states, and also has collabed with some of the hottest
artists and producers becoming a force to be reckoned with in the
world of “Hip Hop”. Now with the right people and the right connects,
“The Road to Prosperity” is looking very bright.
He also has been featured on many new mix tape cd’s such as, DJ
Slugo’s “Respect My Grind”, DJ Drama’s “The Stimulus Package”, and
also DJ Smoke’s “I’m Dat Nigga” and “Independantz Daze” mix tape. He
recently won a spot in the November issue of Eigo Magazine.
(my-ultreigo.com) and a spot on Coast2Coast mix tape with a major
artist.

Hip hop as a whole is making a turn for the better....people are tired of hearing the same crappy music from the same crappy artist....a new wave of talent and creativity is making its way back in the game and I'm ecstatic!
