Buggsy Capri
aka
Knockout Ned
Buggsy Capri aka Terance Gerard Joseph Jr., was born and raised in South Central Los Angeles and doubles as an Emcee and in-house producer for Unkanny Music (a record label based out of Los Angeles). Grooming his skills as a ‘battle rapper’ in L.A.’s underground hip hop scene, Buggsy has won countless emcee competitions and has been dubbed both “a freestyle specialist” and “a genius.” His style (and production) flows back and forth between hipster hop, to underground, to revolutionary, to alternative. Armed with clever wordplay and an underground emcee’s delivery, Buggsy is set to release his debut album “Mu.sick to get Awesome to!” later this year.
