C-BO was born on January “14th”, 1972 on the West Coast of Sacramento, California. He lived in a neighborhood known as “The Gardens”. The Gardens were one of the neighborhoods where crime and gang activity thrived. While The Gardens weren’t the best place to live, they offered valuable insight for C-BO on all the things that we don’t really hear about on TV – how life truly is and how our system isn’t as perfect as people might think it is. But, C-BO never saw himself as a bystander, bowing his head while chaos erupts into The Gardens.

He used his talent and created his music, through which he stood up for his rights, life and sent a powerful message – “We know what is happening. You can’t lie to us.”

C-BO’s rap is often called controversial, Tracks like F*# the Police and Another Brick from his latest album relased TODAY on his C-Day, Animal. In the 1990’s his lyrics surprised the rap scene, the listeners and changed the game completely. He stood up, he told the truth and he sent a powerful message with every song he released. One of his most famous titles – “Autopsy” and “Tales from the Crypt” have become the fan favorites, increasing his fan base immensely.

“One Bo Loc has begun, Two there ain’t no f*?king with my crew , three we kick knowleg from the streets, four nothing but the hardcore.” -CBO, Straight Killa

However, some of the songs brought trouble for him. He was arrested because the lyrics of the song “Deadly Game” under the charge “promoting criminal activity”. In the “Deadly Game” C-BO talks about his life, and how the system is never on your side. No matter what you do, you end up getting the short stick of the end. His frustration is obvious and he stands up for himself, conveying a message – “To hell with you all, I am going to tell my truth even if it gets me in trouble.”
