Success in the music industry is notoriously difficult. Whether it be the obstacle of not
having the backing of a major label, or the lack of respect and support from superstar
rappers and fans alike, the road to stardom is far from easy. Many people have fallen at
the hands of these hardships.
One man who has thrived in these conditions is California rapper Roccett.
Born Jerome Rockett in 1983, and raised in the rugged streets of Carson, CA., the 24-
year-old MC learned about hustling and working hard at a young age. The rough
surroundings of crime and gangs in Carson molded Roccett into a strong individual, and
gave him the necessary experience to share the struggles of what many people face. After
his initial dream of a basketball career didn't materialize, he discovered he had a passion
for hip-hop at the age of 16. With his eyes clearly set on his new goal, he began laying
out the foundation for his success by performing shows throughout Los Angeles.
Coming from the West Coast, a region that has produced stars like Snoop Dogg, Dr. Dre,
N.W.A and many more, and famous for its unique lifestyle, Roccett embodies what many
West Coast rap fans love, while at the same time displaying a versatility that makes him
appealing to hip-hop fans across the world.
His charisma and strong stage presence, combined with his ability to craft stories about a
wide array of subjects earned the young rapper the respect of fans and caused the industry
to take notice.
His talent and drive caught the attention of Get Your Green Up Entertainment in 2004, and
his partnership with the company, which has worked with notables like Usher and
Tupac, has produced a sizable buzz. Having already worked with established stars like
Young Jeezy, Fabolous, Killer Mike, Knoc'turn'al and other rappers like Young Buck and
Akon at this young stage of his career, as well as having critically acclaimed mixtapes
under his belt, Roccett's talent is clear.
With so many dues paid, his industry knowledge and the groundwork set, Roccett is
poised to make lasting impression on hip-hop.
