Jersey, Rodney had a knack for poetry
at an early age, often free-styling for
fun with friends, at family gatherings and
local high school talent shows,
Graduating from Orange High School,
Rodney went on to attend Benedict
College in Columbia, South Carolina.
Then he joined the U.S. Army, where he
was stationed in Wertheim, Germany.
His fellow soldiers also took notice of
Rodney’s poetic flare.
After his tour of duty was over, Rodney
moved to Atlanta, Georgia, where his
mother relocated. In Atlanta, he and his
cousin formed a rap group. A demo was
cut and they performed at several local
venues around town.
Rodney reinvented himself as a poet and
spoken word artist.показать меньше
