Anthony Parker, Jr. A.K.A. WORDSMITH claims many areas as his home. The son of an Army officer, he has resided in New York, New Jersey, Maryland, Virginia, Georgia, Delaware, Texas, Kansas and even Germany to name a few. After moving around so much, Parker found rap as an outlet. He spits an aggressive, yet metaphoric lyrical style. He is influenced by Redman, Big L, Nas, Rakim, Kanye West, Jeru the Damaja, A tribe called Quest, Krs One, Gangstarr, Das Efx, Public Enemy, Ice Cube, 2pac, Eminem and his own cousin Roc Marciano, formerly of the Flipmode Squad. His debut albums will be released separately on the same day. The Hip-Hop album, Classic Material, is somewhat of a throwback to the golden era of hip-hip (92-96) with its lyrical nature (Rakim), its revolutionary sound (Public Enemy),storytelling roots (Slick Rick) and Jazzy flavor (Digable Planets). The Rock album, Rockstrumentals, is a new age experiment between Rock and Hip-hop. This may be the first Rock oriented album to be totally produced on a beat machine; no live bands behind this MC. Run-DMC may have done walk this way in the late 90’s with Aerosmith, but this album takes a real MC and puts his lyrics to hardcore rock beats. If you enjoyed the promo songs from Wordsmith's future LP, "Classic Material" let me introduce you to the Freestyle Files. These are nothing, but exclusive joints featured on some hot mixtapes. You've seen the Classic flow, now check the street flow...
