Born and raised in the Bronx, NYC, TempOpmet aka People Without Shoes is a product of his environment. With hip-hop running through his veins, his resume dates back to when he recorded his first two PWS demo tracks at the young age of 12 years old. A few years later, now in his teenage years, the 15 year old emcee came upon a chain of events, all which led to the introduction to producer Melvin Gibbs. And the hype began.
People Without Shoes released his debut single “Green Shoe Laces” in 1994, on cassette and vinyl formats, receiving heavy rotation on all the hot radio stations,and praised by critics as a versatile emcee with unlimited flows, well crafted lyricism, complimented by a voice that alone would stop you dead in your tracks and keep you listening.
1995 came and the hype only grew. The demand for more music was met with 3 more well crafted singles/ ep's released on Rage Records. Still a teenager, he now had a video on BET' RapCity accompanied by an interview with Joe Clair, featured in Numerous publications such as Billboard magazine, Word Up, Rap Pages, CMJ, Ego Trip , and a few praised singles under his belt. Next up, People Without Shoes was on tour promoting the upcoming album “Thoughts of an Optimist”, an 11 track masterpiece produced in its entirety by Melvin Gibbs (named best bassist by Time Out ).
Fast forward We started 5420 Records and People Without Shoes are back with the Boom Bap releasing authentic
hip hop for the world to enjoy.
