Bio

Some say that size matters. Look a little closer to talent other than the size of a city, and you will find one of the most talented unsigned artist to pick up a microphone. Young Trajik aka Rickey Harris was born on Nov.3, 1985 in Washington D.C...An army brat born to two soldiers at the time, he had a ok life as a baby, until his father and mother seperated when he was 5. His mother was from Ohio and his father was from Baltimore, MD. He and his mother relocated to Ohio with pretty much nothing but a car when he was 8 years old. Life was rough moving around so much when Trajik was young. He was the only child to both of his parents so alone time was frequent. They moved to metropolitan housing when he was about 9 or 10. The Fairview Gardens would be his residence until he graduated from High School. This place was a violent place for anybody at the time. A number of murders and shootings remain unsolved to this day. Music was Trajik's escape. When he was in elementary, he entered his first talent show. From then on out it would be his destiny. Performing in numbers of local talent shows and battle rapping would be the way trajik would make his mark. He and two other neighborhood friends started a group called "Non-Stop", which later changed to "The Harhittaz". They would appear in local newspapers and he even have a news interview when he was 16 years old. Warren was a small but very violent place. No one looked at this place for talent unless it was high school sports. Trajik realized his grind would have to be extra hard to excell in music. The group kind of went on their own terms after high school and Trajik found his own identity as a solo artist. Trajik would appear on local acts albums and expose his talent throughout the city. In the spring of 06', he and his cousin released his first mixtape "Hurrikane Season". He was featured on Slip-n-Slide records street team and was competing for a deal in 2006. After 2 months he had a buzz in Miami and Atlanta. The small town 21 year old rapper had people in these major cities finally talking about him. Since that time he has opened up for Young Buck of G-Unit,JUVENILE,has a roster of mixtape DJ's that he is working with including: DJ B-Mello, DJ Joey Fingaz,and DJ Streetz... and has done numbers of local shows to promote his upcoming solo Mixtape "The American Dream". Slowly but surely Trajik will be at the top of the game. His grind doesnt pause at all. The world will get to know "YOUNG TRAJIK" sooner or later!
