Seventeen-year-old Cyco of Stone Mountain, Ga is the first of a new wave of young hip- hop artists set to recreate the southern rap scene. With the complexity and lyrical depth of artists twice his age, Cyco stands alone in comparison to his peers. His sound is first and foremost southern, but he has the natural ability to narrate stories and dialogue with a hard-core edge.
Christopher "Cyco" Pitts is one of three children born to Michelle Pitts and to date, an estranged father, in Stone Mountain, Georgia. Cyco’s childhood was that of turbulence and pain. At the tender age of 9, he witnessed the brutal slaying of his brother by an older cousin which would forever alter his perspective on life. The death of his brother opened up an emotional gate that music has allowed him to express. An experience like this is what separates Cyco from the current set of young rappers. His life has created a dialogue from which he raps.
