Influenced by hip-hop legends such as Nas, Jay-Z, 2pac, Big Pun and The Notorious B.I.G., the Dominican emcee has loved and admired hip-hop culture since embracing it at a young age. After finding himself as an artist and mastering the craft of emceeing, Carlito soon found himself delivering rugged rhymes of street strife, drug-dealing, and everyday life situations. Through his monstrous work ethic and creativity, his music easily traveled from the streets of New Jersey to exclusive mixtapes features from popular DJs including: DJ Green Lantern, DJ Vlad, DJ Lazy K, 4Sho and many more.
His debut mixtape, This Aint a Movie Vol.1 hosted by DJ 007, sold over 7,000 units in the streets and online. The mixtape was labeled an instant classic and proved that Carlito was a fixture in the industry. In the summer of 2007, Carlito was chosen to record a track for DJ Green Lantern |
