Kulu Snakes, born Andre Stevens, comes from the North side of Pittsburgh, PA. He has lived all over the city though. Father not around, mother struggling with addiction, having been in foster care with younger sister, incarcerated for first time at age 17 and given a 10 year sentence for robberies and gun charges, Kulu Snakes is no stranger to struggle. "I slung on corners, out of houses and things of that nature as well," says Kulu Snakes," but everything aint meant for everybody. I loved rap music ever since LL Cool J. I Started rapping myself around the age of 15. I used to freestyle with my god sister and my long ago homies back in the day. My old head Ju Ju aka Nikki Scarfu who was trying to start a record label in the 90's gave me the name Kulu Snakes. it's just a cool way to say crazy venom... in which I spit." Being 32 may seem kind of late for this gritty, rough voice rapper. But judging by his punch lines, witty lyrics, and vocabulary, the time couldn't be right for hip-hop. "I rap because I love it. I pursue a career in rap because that is what lost loved ones of mines wanted to do for a living. I rap in hopes to change the world for the better. My inspirations are Tupac, DMX, Notorious B.I.G, Snoop Dogg, and Jay-Z."
