About mc breed

Born in Flint, Michigan, Breed launched his career in the Detroit hip-hop scene, and was one of the first nationally successful rappers to come out of this scene. Breed's first album was released with rap group DFC and was entitled MC Breed & DFC for independent record label SDEG Records. His solo debut was 1992's 20 Below, after which he released 1993's The New Breed. He would go on to have a very extensive discography and have a very long career that was at times successful, but he never fully broke into the mainstream. His highest-charting album was 1994's Funkafied, which peaked at #106 on the Billboard 200.   Through his career, he would align himself with various rap scenes; some of which were early in his career with DFC. He and the group were independents, making them one of the first groups out of the Midwest. However, later in his career he aligned himself with the West Coast, taking on more of a G-funk sound and befriending West Coast rapper Too Short. Still later, he realigned himself once again with the dirty south for 1995's Big Baller.

Breed released two more albums with Wrap Records—1996's To Da Beat Ch'all and 1997's Flatline—to fulfill his contract with the label. In 1998, Breed signed a deal with Power Records, who had distribution through Roadrunner Records, and released the album, It's All Good, in 1999. 2 for the Show, a compilation showcasing some of Breed's famous collaborations with 2Pac, Too Short, and more, followed later that year. In 2000, Breed starred in the straight-to-video movie, Dollar, alongside Shannon Greer, and released a soundtrack for it, which featured his hit, "Ain't No Future in Yo' Frontin'". Breed also released a compilation that year titled The Thugz, Vol. 1, and featured Too Short, Richie Rich, Bootleg of the Dayton Family, and more. It would end up being his last release with Power Records.
