As young teenagers, the talented duo group "Double Barrel", also
known as the twins, were very into and influenced by the music
culture of Hip-Hop growing up in Yonkers, NY. Listening to artists
such as LL Cool J, Jay-Z, B.I.G., Nas, DMX, Cassidy, 50 Cent and many
more. Knowing that they were inspired, they decided to pursue a
rapping career. As they started writing rhymes, trying day after day
to perfect a flow, and increase their skill, they were writing and
recording hundreds of tapes in their house till they decided to take
their talent more seriously and take it to the next level. Receiving
a bunch of beats from their cousins and friends and going to their
houses to record on 4-track mixers in home studios. Double Barrel
would usually spend a lot of time away from home so they would have
tons of rhyme books, writing in school and even at work.
Although They are rappers they also produce their own music.which
they started doin a couple years back. when asked why they started
producing there own music they say"because they got tired of waiting
on other producers to hand them exclusive tracks" which in return
helped them with there classic material.
Up until 5 years ago, this music thing was all a hobby for Double
Barrel. The professional aspect of there rapping began when they did
a street mixtape and sold them to people they knew and outsiders
in/out of yonkers. they created a buzz for themselves which was easy
because of the twin recognition.Immediately after, they found out
about "DJ Superior" threw a family member gave him a mixtape got
introduced to most hated entertainment and the rest is history. DJ
superior is also DMX’s former DJ,who is now the CEO of Most Hated
Entertainment Records.since then they dropped a mixtape called "lets
get it poppin" moving like several hundred units here and overseas,
and still counting. and there second mixtape "hottest twins in the
hood " which is getting great feedback & there currently working on a
new one named "twin society" which is highly anticipated ans expected
to do very well on streets,overseas, & digitally!!. since then theyve
been featured on multitude of mixtapes.
