Samuel Christian....... Born in Fayettville N.C.. The oldest of four had no doubts about his career choice. Even as a young child, his mother had him performing for family. That finally paid off when he hit JR.High,and started recieving 1st prize in local talent shows, and singing the national anthem for varcity basketball games. By the time he graduated he recieved his first backround contract from the singer "Joe" who was then signed to "Mercury Records". In 1993 he left the tour and moved to Los Angeles C.A. after he met a girl on his visit to L.A.. Subsequently that same girl introduced him to "Bernard Edwards JR." now known as the producer "Focus". Focus showed showed him the L.A. music seen. After learning the ropes, Samuel decided to venture off on his own. He later met Michael Mavroles who introduced him to Sebastian Jones,owner of "M.V.P." records. M.V.P. released a compilation called "Most Valuable Players" where he released his first single "Sista Cali". The single got alot of votes from Sprite but for Samuel that just wasn't enough. Well, his luck changed in 1996 when he signed to "Loud Records". He then recorded the underground classic "The Documentary Vol. 1". One of the songs from that album was picked for a movie that Loud was doing called "Black and White". The song was " Y.O.U",Samuel Christian featuring Mos Def, that was the song that finally gave Samuel the notability he was looking for. He later went on to write, perform, and record such titles as, "MUZIK" with Knocturnal. "Can't Wait" with Sleepy Brown and OutKast. "The One" for Earth Wind and Fire. "Till your legs start shaking" for Sleepy Brown, and "Doctors Advocate" with The Game and Busta Rhymes where he wrote and is singing the hook for "Doctors Advocate", for those of you that weren't sure.
