HYPE PACINO BIOGRAPHY

North Carolina is the birthplace of many talented and major Hip-Hop acts, including Roc Nation rapper J. Cole, So So Def founder Jermaine Dupri, former Death Row Records signee Petey Pablo, beatsmith 9th Wonder and his group Little Brother, and many more. Next in line to breakthrough from the North Cak is an aspiring and much sought after rhymespitter by the name of Hype Pacino (born Daronta Lee), who is already rocking the underground circuit for more than a decade in the South Atlantic States. Being featured in major media outlets such as AllHipHop.com, YoRaps.com, ThisIs50.com, and Hip-Hop Nation (Sirius XM Radio), Hype Pacino (formerly Lil Hype) is no newbie to the oversaturated Hip-Hop circuit. Standing out with his extravaganza personality and street related music content, the ‘North Cak Representa’ is ready to leave his mark on the southern hemisphere. Hype Pacino already collaborated on tracks with established Hip-Hop acts such as Strange Music leader Tech N9ne, Playaz Circle member 2 Chainz (formerly Tity Boy), Cashville rapper Young Buck, and Atlantic Records signee Alley Boy. From the very first start, the self-professed “Hood Star” began constructing his very own street tapes, working with local acts, and quickly making a name for himself in and around the greater North Carolina area. Known for his blazing and street certified mixtapes like “Hood Star” (hosted by DJ Chuck T), “Trappin’ While I’m Rappin’”, and “Da Streets Callin’ Me”, Hype Pacino is heavily affected by the streets that raised him. Influenced by southern rappers Hot Boys, 8Ball & MJG, and UGK, Hype Pacino follows in a lane that was paved by these artists. “Hype Pacino is a true product of his environment — born in the streets, life in the streets. What you see is what you get when listening to my music — no fake sh*t and phoniness!” explained the aspiring and much talented emcee. Hype Pacino aka The North Cak Representa is not only a breakout rapper, but also an aspiring entrepreneur who is running his own independent label, illest Records.
