New York, NY (Top40 Charts/ Wu-Tang International) Kinetic 9 aka Berretta 9 is a member of the incredibly artistic group KILLARMY, an affiliation of the legendary group WU TANG CLAN. He is a gifted, talented MC originally from Steubenville Ohio. 4th Disciple, another Ohio native and group producer of Wu- Tang Clan introduced Kinetic to the group. Through hard work and determination, they became one of the earliest and most successful groups that emerged out of the Wu-Tang camp in the early 90's. They went on to record three successful albums "Silent Weapons For Quiet Wars [1997]; Dirty Weaponry [1998], and Fear, Love & War [2001].
Kinetic has worked closely with Wu Tang's mastermind "The RZA" to collaborate on some dynamic songs. He appeared on all three of RZA's album.
The second album "RZA As
Bobby Digital In
Digital Bullet" is where he exercised his valuable skills by appearing in many songs, i.e. the hit single "LA RHUMBA".Kinetic and The RZA fused their talents on the numerous tracks such as "Take Swords Part 1" which was featured on Afro Samurai
Soundtrack soundtrack [2007].
Kinetic's international efforts included touring with RZA. He also paired off with Killarmy's brother SHOGUN to be the headliners of the successful European "Killa Bee" concerts in 2007, and paired with other Wu affiliates. With the warm greeting and support of the European fans, Kinetic plans on continuing and pursuing more overseas dates.
Kinetic is striving and ready to push his efforts towards a solo album. He recently dropped two mixtapes for his loyal fans, which is distributed and available at his shows. He is diligently working hard on his solo album for which he aims to highlight his individualism, but parallels the best sounds of his Killarmy and Wu-Tang's genre.
Not only is Kinetic a performer, he has expanded his creative talents into producing. Kinetic has finally started producing for brilliant artists such as Method man (4:20) and a host and handful of Wu affiliate such as Freemurda, Leggazin and more with the hopes of making sounds for other rap lyricists alike. Currently working on numerous projects, Wu-International caught up with Killarmy's own Beretta 9 to find out about his contribution on the Achozen project, a project he worked on with Shavo, The RZA and Reverend
William Burks, Killarmy reunion album, Orphanage project and his latest and current project with Czech artists IronKap expected to drop sometime soon. This is part one of the Kinetic tic and IronKap interview with Kinetic, part two will be posted tomorrow... Enjoy!
