Details:
At 29 years old,Deadlock A.K.A (Darren Mattern)...has been a force to be reconed with in the Underground music scene for awhile now. Born in the Mid West in Canton Ohio 6-20-77 and raised in southern California...this average, suburbian, whiteboy who always loved music and hailed from the dusty streets of the HIGH DEZERT was Far from average. While playing nintendo at a neighbors house in 1986 he was first introduced to the Beastie Boys album Liscend 2 ILL and the smash hit "Fight For Your Right" where the young future MC was hooked from the jump. But being white had many down falls at the time and the thoughts of spitting never crossed his mind. He loved hip hop from that point on and made it a point to listen to every hip hop/rap album he could get his hands on including the Fat Boys and the L.A Dream Team to mention a few. Raised in a strict, God fearing,christian home, hard core hip hop was hard to come buy let alone even sneak into the house but determined as he was, young Lock started stealing cassette singles from the local K-Mart and thus began his journey into an all to familiar world of Dope slangin, Gangbangin, Prison and Murder. After a friend slips him a copy of N.W.A''s "straight outta Compton in 1990, his thirst and hunger for writting kicked in....but would soon fade as White Rap Artist Vanilla Ice arrived and quickly proved what everyone always knew was true...White Boys Cant Jump or RAP and quickly killed the young MC''s Dreams of ever becoming a recording artist. Fast forward to 1992 and a young Deadlock, streetwise and hardened by the absence of his biological father finds himself listening to "Jump Around" from the Irish Trio House Of Pain and is overwhelmed when he discovers the 3 are Whiteboys from New York. An Advid listener of all music it was artist such as M.C Eiht, and Above The Law (K.M.G) That were the young M.C''s first real influences along with East coast artist Boogie Down Productions (KRS One) and Rakim. Given a new hope to persue a career in music Deadlock begins to put songs together while immitating the styles of his favorite artist and even sometimes stealing a bar or two. By 1993 Lock has had several run ins with the law and struggles to find his place not only in his city but with his peers and in music. Never quite accepted among the thugs and dealers he met in the streets lock becomes alienated and distant from friends and family. (1993) arrested and sentenced to 4 months AZ Boys Ranch Meantime Dreams of ever even touching a mic are put on the back burner and Lock focuses on getting his life in order. (1997) arrested and sentenced to 4 years state prison : Armed Robbery, Attempted Murder and Assult While serving time in Avenal State Prison in 1998 lock listens and watches from afar as Black inmates rap on the yard while making beats with their fist on tables. Young lock studys the art while stacking folders of verses in his free time and honeing in on his skillz. Lock becomes a vicious freestyle lyricist and nasty with writting hooks and soon builds up the nerve to approach "Panama Red" a well respected "Black" rapper on the yard at the time. I emphasize the word Black because for those of you who arent familiar with prison politics....white boys and Brothas dont hang out in prison.... period so you can imagine the risk i was taking This dude was blown away by locks skills and told him to come up with a handle for himself....somthing differant and represented him....Thus DEADLOCK was born and the war to be a rap legend had just begun.... After 2 prison terms...1 gun shot wound...2 kids and 5 knife wounds later...2007 brings the now 30 year old M.C to new challenges and more heart break to bank on. Now with a Major Distribution Deal with (Universal) and a major lable deal for his managers Lable thru (Universal) Deadlock patiently waits for his time to come while holding down his city and shutting all bustaz down....Sit back and enjoy the music and feel the real.....Deadlock
