Tone Status' Artist Bio

I haven't posted nothing new on here in a lil while, so i decided to give ya'll a big piece of me...My artist Bio!!! God willing you'll be seeing paraphrased versions of this in some of your favorite music publications very soons.

Harlem has been referred to as The Home of the Trendsetters for many years. Harlemite, Tone Status is here to change the way you view Harlem, musically first. "For Harlemites to be referred to as trendsetters is an understatement, we've been a huge influence on the world since the 1920's,especially musically." Harlem pride, strong opinions, out the box thoughts, left field delivery, and witty lines is what this 24-year-old Renaissance Man packs his product with. His Urban Prepster swagger, and his "I just won the lotto" bravado will soon have the masses following his unorthodox blueprint. His first solo project entitled TSUNAMII did really well on iTunes as well as other online distributors, with very little promotion. The lead track "Pop A Rubber-band" had much success in NYC area strip clubs. "My homie G-Dot gave me the beat, and told me he can hear me all over the track, I agreed, and the track was done in 20 minutes, funny thing about this song, Strip Club songs aren't really my lane." Tone Status' versatility has made him into a fine-tuned machine that's able to ride in any lane. Being apart of The Diplomat Family has trained Tone for this business. "The Diplomat experience gave me a chance to learn the Industry’s anatomy. Countless hours in the studio with Juelz Santana sculpted Tone’s work ethic as a recording artist." Mr. Status' motto is "Work All Day,No Play." If he isn't making his own music, he's assisting others to perfect their craft, and he's also an actor. In 2005, Tone landed a role in Cam'rons' Independent classic "Killa Season" He played a bold street hustler, who attempted to take over Cam's block. "This role was a stretch for me!" Although I've hustled before, I've always been a humble hustler; however, I was all about that quiet money. "

It's now 2010, “the game is wide open!“ yells the highly motivated artist. "It's time to let Tone in!" He's currently working on his 2nd project tentatively entitled "LEFT". The warm-up single "G-Lean" off the project has been getting a lot of praise online. "This song is very Harlem, I’m ecstatic that people from all over the world are still able to feel it. It's a real fun song that introduces my personality to the people. "Lines like "Cool, Calm, and Collected, but if ever disrespected-I get violent/Make the hood look like An Island/I’m hot and wavy, baby I change the climate/" definitely give you a feel for who Tone Status is. There will be a musical visual for "G-Lean" no later than April 2010. The "LEFT" project will take the listener into the "far-fetched" mind of this Harlem Globetrotter. "When I make music, I never duplicate what's On the radio, instead I create what I feel should be on the radio. Everything from the lingo I use, to my delivery is fresh out the box."

What differentiates Tone Status from the norm is exactly that, He's abnormal. "While everybody else went right, I always went left until it was considered normal, then I switch up on them again. This is my approach with music, acting, business, friends, relationships, etc…" The "odd ball" doesn't spend forever to make most songs. He feels like the longer you take to make a song, is the further your music is from your real thoughts. "This aint no act, when you hear me on a track these are my thoughts in the rawest form. I don't follow the mainstream when I make music, I construct my songs with hopes of them becoming apart of the mainstream."

Shoot Me Down Remix(Lil Wayne Ft. Tone Status)

Welcome To The Spacey Mind Of Status

What's good ya'll, It's ya boy Tone Status. If you know me, you know my mind is in tune with the moons and stars. For those of you who don't know me,let me give ya'll a little background on me and who I am.
Tone Status- I'm an Actor/Rapper/Ghostwriter/Lover/Fighter/Winner/ etc... Im basically a Renaissance man. I do it all, and I do it all at a high level. Im a Harlem,NY native, and I lived in the Bronx and Orlando at times too.
I've done everything from Broadway Plays to Feature Films. My biggest role was probably my role in Killa Season. This movie is a hood classic!!! Eventhough I got thrown in a truck with rats, I loved every minute of shooting this film. A lot of people had jokes for me, when they saw the film. I loved that part of the film too. Only a stand-up guy like myself,could take on a role like that, and remained respected. I remember being in L.A. @ Roscoe's Chicken and Waffles, a couple weeks after the movie hit the streets. I was on the West Coast for a music conference(ASCAP). So its, me,my man Kev from DC, and this female I probably knew for like 2 days we're walkin into the famous eatery. We hopped out this white Dodge Charger(When Charger's were hot,lol). The block is saturated with gangbangers, so once they seen the Charger, they was already watching. I done been in LA before,so I know bout all the rules(colors,how to where your hat,3 second rule etc....),so them grilling me aint bother me @ all. Its like 10 dudes looking at us, but this one dude in particular, really icing me. I walk in da spot, Kev mad nervous(lol), and the chic panicing saying "we shouldn't have drove all the way over here for some fuckin waffles"(lmfao). I'm the only one unphased, i'm telling them to just chill and order their food,"them dudes ain't worried bout u,why ya'll worried with them?" They calm down, we all order our meals. As I start to bite my chicken, Kev is like"oh shit! 4 of them dudes is walking in here." Im like "maybe they want some chicken." The chic is like "them dudes want ya car keys." Now my dude Kev aint no street nigga like that and I don't know this chic from a hole in the wall, so know i'm gettin a little nervous. I'm thinking if anything go down, its gonna be me versus the whole set(Lol). So I keep eating, the dudes approach my table. "Im like what up?" One of the dudes is like "Nigga where you from, I know you from somewhere!" Im like "I doubt you know me, I'm from Harlem, NY homie. The crew then order some food and sit at the table next to us. The whole time Im eating these dudes is just looking @ me and talking to each other, arguing over where they know me from(lol). They didn't pose no serious threat to me, so I kept eating. Kev suprisingly kept his composure,I thought he was gonna shit his pants,(lmfao). So we finaly finish our food, as I leave the table, I stop at the gangsters' table. I give them on all pounds and tell them to stay up. I While i'm at the table, the one that was looking at me the hardest was giving me this look like i killed one of his homies in adrive-by. He stands up and says "aye I know where we know this nigga from." In my mind, im like aww shit I got a twin in LA that done killed one of their peoples. The kid then says "this that nigga from Killa Season that tried to take over Cam block and got stuffed in da trunk. They all like "oh shit!!!!!!" and they started showing me mad love. Till this day, they keep in touch with me, sout to da Slauson Street Stunnas'. That was a long story,I know,but I love telling it. That's it for now
