Bobby Bradshaw became attracted to the imagery and sounds of Hip Hop at an early age. His Dad (Clyde), a former member of the Black Panthers, cautioned Bobby and his brothers (Gerald and Leroy) against listening to it because, in his opinion, it romanticized violence. Since the songs Bobby liked echoed the black male experience in urban America, Hip Hop was sort of like a soundtrack to his reality. He'd later discover how, after the death of his father, Hip Hop filled the void he left behind by becoming instrumental in shaping how Bobby viewed the world around him.
