Kiddricc

Kiddricc, (born as Keven Williams on March 30.1987 in Sacramento, California), was born into music. His mother was just starting her career as a gospel singer, so music was apart of his life from his very first day. Later in life, his father left when he was 7 years old, but before that he was in and out of the house. Keven was forced to be a leader at a young age. Growing up in the mean streets of California, Kid got involved in the gang life with the neighborhood gang, the 57th street Crip’s. At an early age, he was always seen with his father around the robberies and killings. It was almost like a common thing in California. Kid and his father was shot when Kid was the age of 14. Kid ducked to save his life but it was almost a reality check and one more chance to follow what God had planned for him, He spent days in the hospital with his father and he realized that his talent was way more important then the streets. A couple of months later, he would move to Minnesota and pursue his career. He battled kids anywhere. It didn’t matter. He also was known to be very athletic and as popularity grew amongst the high school, Kid would grow confidence in his music.

Throughout high school, he would do talent shows and win. Anything that said “SIGN UP” meant that Kid was there. Kid teamed up with his first cousin “O.N.E” to form the group “Blackout”. They would later come out with one mixtape tape which sold 700 copies in the neighborhood in 3 weeks. The group would later break up and Kid would join the Midwest Mafia Group that included Diamond Levy a.k.a Flaw and Walter Taylor a.k.a Trouble, after a former member departed from the group. The group’s first performance was at Central High School in St. Paul where 20 percent of their fans came from. The Mafia put on a classic show and it was greatness in the making. They would later record what they dubbed “the best shit ever” in the basement of one of the members former producers. The group is now working on mixtapes and albums and the friendship moved from friends to brothers. Just starting off 2008, the group decided it was time for a change and wanted to say “out with the old and in with the new”. They changed their name to “THE NEW ERA” with there self titled album called “Sounds of A New Era”.
