Busta Rhymes

Busta Rhymes (born Trevor Smith in Brooklyn, New York on May 20, 1972) is an American alternative rap musician of Jamaican heritage who began his career rapping in Leaders of the New School before breaking new ground in the hip-hop community with a successful solo career. His zany, hyperspeed delivery and wordplay, and verbose lyrical similes distinguished him as being among the most recognizable rappers to ever hold the mic. At the age of 12, his family moved to Uniondale, a suburb of New York City on Long Island, where he was raised and eventually met up with other MCs from the growing New York area hip hop community. He attended and graduated from George Westinghouse High School Downtown Brooklyn. The same high school produced famous MC's Notorious B.I.G. and Jay-Z
