Back in 1996, former manager turned entrepreneur Chauncy Banks started a Mom and Pop music store on North Texas Street, one of Fairfield's the busiest intersections. He named the store The Fonky Chicken and then later renamed it Chauncy's. He had already worked with artists like E-40,Mike Mosley, Selfish, and The Funky Axtecs before running his own shop. I worked alongside Chauncy Banks and E-40's longtime road manager R.J. Alexander at the one-stop selling CD's and forging close relationships with artists and customers.

But that was 20 years ago and I'm still having to prove himself. Why the unessary resistance? It's not like I don't understand the music business.

Back in 2007, I recorded an entire album with one of 2Pac's closest friends and collaborators Mike Mosley (All Eyez On Me, In A Major Way, Hall Of Game, Til' My Casket Drops, Explosive Mode) called Turf Monstaz and a remix that I recorded back in 2006 was added as a new song on the reissue of Mac Dre's 2001 CD, Mac Dre's the Name, contributed to and generated traffic to several sites (Siccness.net, Thizzler On The Roof, In Ya Ear Hip Hop, Bay Area Compass, Westcoast Aftershock, Lunch 'N Leftovers, and most recently Mobb Report Radio's official website.
