15 years ago (during my Mick Boogie era), I put out a mixtape w/ Busta Rhymes that changed my career.

Entitled “DILLAGENCE,” it paid tribute to his dear friend #JDilla. 

It became a classic underground treasure + I was (and still am) honored to be a part of it!

Seven the General – is an award winning emcee/actor/songwriter from Detroit, Michigan with a Bachelor of Science (Music Business) & Inductee into the Detroit Institute of Arts (Hip-Hop archive by Jenny Risher) 

At 17 wrongfully convicted and sentenced to 10-25 years in the MDOC he would spend nearly a decade educating himself and perfecting his craft. “The Back 40” bka the prison yard is where he earned his respect. The title of “The General” was given to the undefeated emcee based on his ability to mobilize massive crowds of followers at times disrupting the security of the facility. Since his release Seven has not allowed his past to be neither crutch nor badge of honor, he is very active in the community as well as the Detroit Music & Film industries. The Detroit emcee first starred in and co-produced the now infamous crime documentary Detroit Murder City Film, which is, now stored in Michigan collegiate library’s as a reference tool for Criminal Justice courses. Seven the General continues to build his acting resume along with his music experience, he has worked and wrote on a wide range of successful projects including R&B Detroit native K’Jon’s #1 Billboard charting album “I Get Around”, Bizarre “Friday Night at St. Andrews”, J Dilla’s “Dillatroit”LP, Multi-Platinum D12’s Return of the Dozen Vol. 2 as well as Esham’s independent film soundtrack “Death of an Indie Label”. Off first glance combined with his history, you’d instantly want to categorize him as a street rapper but Seven The General‘s ability to mold and transcend both sub-genre scenes of rap is nothing short of amazing. As of late Seven the General appears as a character on the Detroit Hip-Hop based video game “Detroit On Fire” (by Shannon Williams)
