ABOUT SPORTN' LIFE RECORD'S ARTISTS
D.Black
Born and raised in Seattle, D.Black's musical roots are deep, with his mother and father both involved in pioneering hip-hop groups in the Seattle music scene. In 2006, D.Black released his debut album, The Cause & Effect, a huge regional success, allowing the emcee to share the stage with Nas, Freeway, Bun B, Clipse, Paul Wall, The Boot Camp Click, and more. He recently launched his much anticipated new album, Ali'Yah. D.Black's sophomore effort, which features production from Jake One and Vitamin D, is D.Black's first album since 2006 and represents a defining moment for him as an artist.
Praised for his polished rhyme flow, D.Black's new record, Ali'Yah (Hebrew for Ascend) and the sound he self-describes as "deep-rooted soul with heavy slapping drums," will help define him as an emcee and a person. D.Black says, "Ali'Yah captures me in the midst of a spiritual journey that has altered my way of being even in my physical life."

Fatal Lucciauno
Sportn' Life Records signed Fatal Lucciauno as their second act, releasing his debut album, "The Only Forgotten Son" in 2007. Fatal has a smooth, rugged sound, like Tupac. He's been writing poetry since he was 8-years old, he values history and is also a credible voice of the street. From being homeless as a kid to hustling the streets of the Central District as a teen, he's seen it all. Fatal's music takes you through the many challenges he's overcome, making it a powerful expression of tenacity and courage. He credits his mother, respected Northwest Jazz and Gospel singer Josephine Howell, as his inspiration. For more information, visit http://www.myspace.com/fatallucciauno and www.sportnlife.net.
Spaceman
In 2008 Spaceman became the breakout artist for Seattle based hip hop label Sportn' Life Records. After a couple of years hyping label mate D.Black, Spaceman set off on his own and has thrust himself into the current position of one of the areas most sought after rap acts.
