Early Life
Uncle Murda, real name Leonard Grant, is a rapper from Brooklyn, New York, and grew up in Cypress Hills Projects. He was called L.G. (for his initials) and then onto L-Murder by people who knew him. He received his name “Uncle Murda” from Murda & Uncle being added by the kids in his neighborhood projects to whom he would generously give money.[1]
Musical Career
Murda started to take rap seriously in 2006 and was heavy in the underground circuit of New York City. He was linking up DJ Green Lantern and DJ Cut Master C for mixtapes but it wasn’t until he released his hit single “Bullet Bullet” that he finally gained mainstream attention, followed by another single “Run The City”. Uncle Murda has been known to be “Too hard for hip hop” because of his Hardcore lyrics about his lifestyle as a gangster living in the ghetto. He has his own rap crew named GMG which is an abbreviation for “Getting Money Gangstas”.
In 2007, DJ Green Lantern and DJ Clue introduced Uncle Murda’s music to Jay-Z. The Brooklyn born rapper/CEO signed Uncle Murda to Roc-A-Fella Records soon after. They started to promote him immediately by placing him on a track with popular label-mates Fabolous and Jay-Z for the song “Brooklyn” (Featured on From Nothin’ to Somethin’ album) and everything seemed to be going well for the rapper.
