About Artist
B.B.D is in the poetical buisness, not the enertainment buisness. If you listen to one of his CD’s to end, it would be equivalent to sitting in a movie theater. He expresses morality over his talent, though he is not to be underestimated… B.B.D is known for his vivid imagages, humorous tales, and clever punch lines. Even though he could be a menace when it comes to battling, his main focus is to lift the ignorance of the Nation, and to give a message with spirituality in his music.

….. Clifford Steven Laforet was born on Feb. 9, 1996 in Greenbrae, California. After years of constantly gettin into trouble with differant things, his mom sent him to his dad, who lives in Naples, Florida, so he could hopefully straighten up his act. When he arrived to Naples, B.B.D was immediatley influenced by the large number of local rappers in the town and the many oppurtunities it had for them. So he decided to make a little rap on his own, takin the name…Yung Ice, because he was always wearing blue. Not long after this change, he was put on probation for battery and has been expelled from school… Twice! When he was on probation, B.B.D was a house cat, he decided to stay low-ki for a while so he wouldn’t violate probation. Later on, he changed his rap name to B.B.D (Big Black Dog) because his real name was Clifford, and he always been a tall black kid, people also called him the big black dog when he was little, so he took the initials of that joke and is now working on making it famous.During this time, B.B.D was constantly writing freestyles to spare time. One of the freestyles was called “The One Verse Cypher”, ft. Sparks. When he released this freestyle on the internet, it became a Major hit! It was shared on Facebook over 500 times when he shared it 3 times. B.B.D dropped his first mix-tap “The Renaissance”, on March 22nd, 2012. Later that year on November 22nd (Thanks Giving), B.B.D dropped his second project, “Respect Before Success. Right after his release, he was in the process of starting his 3rd Street Mix-Tape. It wasn’t long after the release that Steven Chubbs (Un4Given Sounds), a producer, discovered B.B.D on Soundcloud. He streamed through his music and left a comment on one of the sound tradcks..
“I like it alot. If you need work, let me know!”
After reading this comment, B.B.D, in return listened to the instrumentals of ‘Un4Given Sounds’ and agreed to work with Chubbs. As a result, B.B.D is now in the process of creating his debut album with Un4Given Sounds which is set to be released soon this year. ‘The Levi Project’ Prod. Un4Given Sounds, TBA.
