Next to be added to the list of luminaries that comprise the southern takeover is SRC/Universal Motown recording artist Grandaddy Souf, (pronounced “sowf”). Born and raised in Orlando Florida, known mostly as a vacation spot, Souf’s childhood memories are a far cry from Disney World. His national debut entitled Chasing My Dream, gives his fans an intimate look into Grandaddy Souf the man, his music and the issues on his mind. The highly anticipated record set for release on June 26, 2007 is a high energy eclectic blend of Southern style club bangers and reality based street anthems that are headed to the top of the charts.
Born Anson Watts, the son of recovering addicts, Souf’s childhood years were spent under the guidance of his grandparents. He was living on his own at twelve, facing two felony charges by the age of fifteen yet he excelled in both sports and music. His passion for sports earned him a scholarship to the University of Arizona, where he played football and ran track until an injury sidelined him. With a college degree in hand, he returned to Orlando and eventually relapses into the pitfalls, which had plagued his community, the sale and distribution of narcotics.
“I got reacquainted with the street life,” explains Souf. “It wasn’t something that I was trying to make into a career. It was just me trying to survive. That chapter of my life is forever closed. All I can do is move forward.” Moving forward for Souf was establishing a business partnership with two friends on an independent record company in 1999, Parra Mo Entertainment. That same year, the trio released Souf’s underground debut Da Drought that was fueled by the single “F**k Da Law,” selling over 35,000 copies.
