2013 release from the rapper based out of St. Louis. Stevie first discovered a love of music through his singer/choir director mother who introduced him to Gospel, Blues and Soul. An enthused Tech N9ne once called him a ''star'' and the brash emcee from the middle of the land has built a reputation for heavy street music, often backed by 808 drum patterns, and has proven to be a road warrior with two national treks in 2012. Staring down his sophomore Strange Music release, Stevie Stone hasn't lost the focus that made him the perfect candidate for the Snake and Bat's urban breakthrough.
