HaLS pronounced (Haus) was born in Miami, Florida and raised in Syracuse, NY. This talented Mc has a strong love for the hip hop game. He started dappling with Hip Hop back in the early 90’s as child. HaLS was introduced to Hip Hop by his older brother, who use to have HaLS rhyming over Chubb Rock and KRS-one instrumentals. Being raised in a predominately black community HaLS always looked up to a lot of great Hip Hop figures as a voice. Someone who has the same values as he does, coming from the same crime-infested environments so it was easy for him to relate. His father was an alcoholic, always intoxicated, so during his childhood it seemed like he was growing up in a single parent home. He went to the U.S Navy in 2000. His mother not really have any money to support him through school, HaLS was forced to find a new route to make it on his own. So at the time the navy seemed like the only legal answer he can come up with. During His 4 year stint he really started to feel alienated and lonely so he began to take music more seriously and really began to jot down his feelings and memories from what he learned from his environment, as well as his family. When HaLS left the military he continued to write and really put his experiences into music. Hals came out with a mixtape in the summer of 2006, which was received with a lot of great praises. After receiving positive feedback, HaLS continued to pursue music more and more, which eventually led him to a freestyle contest hosted by Ghostface, after winning the competition and realizing his talent HaLS started to send his music out to Dj’s and Records Labels. HaLS drive has landed him on several Dj mixtapes including Dj Green lanterns myspace invasion pt 2. HaLS has just finished up his latest Project called “The BlackLight (the street album)” and it’s been receiving alot of positive energy.
