With that in mind however, Snook would graduate from high school and decide to head down south in where he enrolled at Benedict College in Columbia, South Carolina to purse a higher level of education. There Snook would major in Business Management and become well-liked among the entire student body.

Within a year Snook would decide sadly to leave Benedict College , a major dream for his mother and focus more profoundly on the path in which his heart was truly aligned in; which was to become a part of the hip hop/rap/entertainment industry. Being born and raised in the north and now calling the south his home brought both challenges and endless opportunities to become well-versed in both areas. Snook had no idea on what was about to happen but yet he was ready for the ride that would forever change his life.

Through hard work and endless hours spent in organizing a record label with college friends, Southern Dynasty would be formed and it was the springboard Snook badly needed to meet collab and showcase his talents to the hip hop world.

Snook would go on and complete his freshmen album “4.5.6 New Banker” where much production was done by Kevin “Khao” Cates (Grand Hustle/Intraprize Records) and Polow da Don (Zone 4 Ent.). Snook’s first single, “Meet at da Bar” was a hit in the Columbia and surrounding areas and it featured Sean Paul of the Atlanta group, YoungBloodz. This second single from this album featured Lil Mo and this track was titled, “Could it Be” and it too was a hit.

Snook received radio spins in several markets both locally and shows being packed Snook seemed to be breaking through the very fortified wall that didn’t allow unknown artist in. However, with the tragic lost of his father, Snook would become isolated and question himself on the very thing he loved so much and that was entertaining the people that loved his music.

With several months of time back and forth to New Jersey to be with his family in which his sister too became ill and Snook was able to redefine himself. His lyrics would become more meaningful and the way he worded his punch lines became more evident that the love he had for hip hop didn’t die in the pasting of his father but elevated him to another plateau in his music career.

Snook has been featured on a host of mix tapes from Dj Cleves “Drought Over”, Dj B-Lord “From a Minor to a Major” COMING SOON, several local artist mix tapes, Dj Ames (London), and Dj Michelin (Toronto) just to name a few. Snook has hosted and performed to open shows for Ciara, The Ying Yang Twins, Lil Wayne, Young Jezzy, Mike Jones, Slim Thug, Trina, Crime Mobb, Lil Scrappy, Young Buck, Jody Breeze, Trey Songz, and The YoungBloodz just to name a few.

Snook has also hosted and performed at Benedict College ’s homecoming concert and step show and performed for Hot 103.9 Back to School concert that had over five thousand attendants. Snook’s new album will include tracks from T-Pain, Lil Boosie, Yo Gotti, Scrilla, Princess (Crime Mobb), Mista Raja and Piazo. The new single that’s being push features Lil Boosie “Models” that is in the process of creating an EXPLOSION the music airwaves!!!

Their new single, “Grindin” featuring  Def Jam recording artist Lil Ru, has already penetrated major markets, extending the group’s sound to a major level.

“We always had a grind to their lives, we come from the struggle meaning we never  had much so it is reflected in our music” – Flames.  The Hustle Boyz currently have a blazing new mixtape with DJ Dirty called “U See Me Now” which also features “Grindin” and R&B hit, “Chocolate Girl.”

“ South Carolina is one of the most slept on states as far as music, but with the success of Lil Ru, Lil Brod and Team Irac the Hustle boyz are the next “thing to talk about. We make good music, we make strong music, we make music to be remembered by”- Dot.

These are the thoughts of Florence, South Carolina native and emcee, Daniel Johnson. It’s a far cry from the fictionalized/embellished tales of drug lords and pimps you currently hear on the radio. And with the current state of affairs in Hip Hop and in the world in general, Dan Johns’ (Daniel Johnson’s rap moniker) dose of reality is so necessary right now. It’s not often you find an emcee whose sole goal in making music is not to make large stacks of money or become famous, but just to make a connection with the fans based off of the music they create and the life experiences they share with them. Dan Johns is that guy.

Dan Johns’ Hip Hop career started off modestly. Inspired by arguably the greatest emcee of all time, Rakim, Dan Johns put together a make-shift studio in his room to record demo tapes in his spare time. At the time, he was just making music purely for the love of the art form passing them off to friends so they could have something to bump in their cars. Eventually this method of circulation lead to his tape landing in the hands of a mutual friend who’d put his demo in the possession of William Washington, a budding label owner. Under William’s tutelage Dan Johns would become the flagship rapper for Peach Phuzz Records. There, he would transform from exclusively a freestyle-spitter to an artist well-versed in song formats and beat production.

His next major move was going off to Atlanta, Georgia to attend Morehouse College. It was there he’d have the opportunity to improve his craft battling emcees from all over the nation. This exposure to various styles increased his hunger to improve and grow and he did…vastly. At Morehouse College, Dan Johns ripped through countless spitters while hitting up every open mic he could to get his name buzzing. At the same time, he’d travel back and forth to South Carolina on the weekends to record. Dan Johns ran into a gift and a curse when his mentor, William Washington, would go on to pursue a production career putting an end to Peach Phuzz Records. This forced him to create his own imprint, Magnum Opus Records (aka Mag-O), another milestone in his career.

Upon conquering numerous statewide freestyle competitions in South Carolina, Dan Johns decided it was time to improve his song-writing ability so he wouldn’t be pigeon-holed as a battle-rapper. But life dealt him a serious blow taking him to his lowest point ever when his, then, fiancé passed. This was a major turning point in his career as his focus would shift from trying to impress listeners with style and wordiness to genuinely trying to affect them with his life through music. It’s this passion that he rocks on his sleeve that garnered respect from fans and peers alike. Dan Johns’ released The Book of Daniel, Yesterday’s Redemption, In the Face of Danger and Tech Files (with Alone) to critical acclaim which lead to shows with the likes of Brand Nubian, KRS-1, Masta Ace, Little Brother, Supastition, Chaundon and many others. His work has been lauded on several Hip Hop sites and blogs including XXLMag.com, HipHopDX.com, RapReviews.com and more. His mixtape, Rebirth of a Dying Breed, embodies who he is as an artist: passionate, gifted with the flow and more everyday man than Superman. Expect his name to be ringing bells in the Hip Hop community for a long time.

“I’m not the next anybody/I’m the first of my kind”
