Murda
Verbal Murda, also known as M.U., is from
York, PA. M.U. is ready to start the path
to becoming one of the music industries
next Hip Hop success stories. M.U.'s wordplay
is matched by his ability to make hit
songs.
M.U. started out writing rhymes at age
12, but like most M.C.s, he kept his rhymes
to himself in the beginning. At age 15,
M.U. was convinced by a friend, who also
wrote rhymes, to join his Rap group. With
his best friend and another M.C. they
formed the group CASO. With his new group
members M.U. (who back then went by the
name 14th) honed their skills working
with local beat makers. In 1998 CASO released
a series of mixtapes that captured the
hearts and minds of York PA and its surrounding
communities. CASO continued releasing
solo and group mixtapes and independent
projects over the next few years, earning
a reputation for his lyrical ability and
showmanship.
During this time, M.U. and the group CASO,
opened up for major recording artists
such as: Jay Z, D Block, Nore, KRS 1,
Keith Murray and a host of others. Unfortunately
in 2001, M.U.'s partners were incarcerated,
leaving M.U. to focus on his solo career.
In 2002 M.U. released his first solo CD,
"The League of Extraordinary Men."
More recently M.U. has released a double
Mix CD, Murda in the 1st Degree, which
