YBless was born into struggle yet decided not to the let struggle define him, but rather he chose to define the struggle. “Life is a lesson if you just listen and learn from it” states Bless. Always having a true love for music Bless began to write at the early age of ten and quickly transitioned into producing as well. Understanding the benefits of working smarter not harder Bless decided to learn from the mistakes and triumphs of others, carefully watching what the industry leaders were doing and customizing those elements to fit his mold. Bless feels his style stands on its own, that there is no one quite like him which makes him confident that his time to shine is now. With a goal to bring back the love and respect to the game, Bless intends to showcase his personal struggles for others to relate to thus creating a connection to build from. “My Struggles are not your struggles, my pain is not your pain, but the elements that create them share a common bond”. With an inner drive, passion and pure determination Bless knows that he has much to offer the industry and his fans, now he just needs his chance to prove it.

On April 6, 1988 a star was born.  William L. McAllister III better known as FRE$H PRINCE was born and raised in the low income housing projects of Tampa, FL.  Before there was a FRE$H P he went by the rap name Bill B.  He began rapping at a young age when he found himself getting in trouble in elementary school.  Always being on punishment he started to write poems and music to pass the time by.  At this time in his life the industry artist that inspired him were Eminem, Ludacris, Kanye West, and TI.  He loved the way they used music as in escape from the real world to express themselves in many different way; imaginary and realistically.  The name FRE$H P came about after William went away for college in Miami in 2006.  After he did a semester in college away from home he figured it was time to revamp his whole image, move back home, and start taking his musical craft more serious.  After moving back home to finish school and also start his music journey; he earned a Bachelor’s of Science Degree in 2011.  Shortly after that milestone he enrolled in the US Army in 2012.  While in the military he recorded music still and did open mics in Washington DC, Virginia, and Maryland to prefect his craft on the stage.  After leaving the military in 2015 FRE$H made a promise to himself.  That promise was that he would be the reason his family lives a better life.  In 2015 he began to let God take the wheel in his life and let him point him in all the right directions to make his promise come true.  In 2016 FRE$H dropped his 1st video to 1 of his singles called “My City”.  The video began to get him notice amongst his peers in the city; which opened up more doors for him.  He was offered a chance to be on the 1st Tampa Cypher hosted by Big Ray Nuccio; which opened up eyes and people took notice in his lyrical ability.  He began to do shows at Pegasus Lounge and local open mics like Smoken Words.  Soon he was brought on board by 2 different music squads (Marijuana Mafia and ILL2Def) to expand his brand.  Later on that year he was blessed with the opportunity to open up for Young Thug and Smack URL at Club Skye.  It was when he and his ILL2Def teammates went against another group (Powerline) in a group battle that he separated himself from the rappers in his city. FRE$H P became the total performer.  He believed that anyone can rap back and forth across a stage for 3 to 10 minutes, but not all can entertain and put on a show while doing it.  He being to think outside the box and mix his motivational/soulful music with a comical twist of entertainment to make him the total package.  It paid off.  After FRE$H help lead his team to a victory that night; he was offered a chance to open up at J Roc Jones’s Album release party.  After an outstanding performance at J Roc’s event, FRE$H P was offered a chance to be a part of Tampa’s 1st every Rap Skool concert.  FRE$H P continued to entertain the people and DJ Shizm took notice.  DJ Shizm put FRE$H P’s hit single “Party and BS” in rotation on Tampa Bay’s Hip Hop and R&B radio station 95.7 The Beat.  FRE$H believes that his drive to keep his promise will continue to make him a force to be reckoned with.  His ultimate goal is to create a new sound and make more music that people of all ages can relate too.  He believes he will get his voice heard not only by his local community but also by the world.
