Born Ruben Johnson in Wursburg Germany and raised in Amityville NY. Rozewood has never been a stranger to life’s adversity.
Witnessing the murder of his uncle first hand he committed himself to not following the all too common path of street life. Instead he chose to hone his rhyming skills and aims to use those to pave his own pathway off the block and into the future.
Rozewood is the MC’s MC . As most up and coming rappers have he has been influenced by the greats like Rakim, Kool G Rap, De la Soul, JZ, Nas and the Wu-Tang Clan. His intellect and sharp wit are clearly heard in his deadly freestyling abilities. In fact while in college he battled Mos Def to a draw.
There is an honesty in his music that is rare in mainstream hip hop today. He has an uncanny ability to paint an accurate picture of the pain, passion and struggle that is real life. There is no need to exaggerate. The truth is raw enough.
His graphic & compelling story telling abilities serve as a reminder that with out a doubt success is not far off in the distance. Rozewood is the MC you may not have heard yet but have always been waiting for.
He will not disappoint.
