BETA Records - Your music matters!

Had problems with gaining acceptance from father, so turned to gang life; but never joined. This is where I adopted the name “Lidl’ B.” Attended Bethany College where I recorded my first track in the college radio station production room, called, “Funeral Bells” in 1996. Applied “Funeral Bells” onto MP3.com in 1997 against unknown recording artists, “Outkast” and maintained number one on the charts for 4 consecutive months. Was e-mailed by NITTO tires to promote their products using their slogan, “Show Your Tattoo” in 1997, but never followed up with it. During a 9 year period I had my heart broken when I found out Eminem was the next white rapper to appear BIG time. Sent another song I recorded entitled, “Street Dreams” in 2001 to Rick Derringer, who gave me contact to B.J. Shapiro. From 2001-2005 I lost many jobs, gotten a divorce, am losing my kids, faced losing my respect and position in my family, and all financial stability. In March of 2005 attempted suicide and landed myself in a psychiatric ward of the Brownsville Hospital of Brownsville, PA. Upon leaving the Brownsville hospital, I met a beautiful nurse who instantly fell in love with me and my music. We are currently together in a full time relationship and she supports everything I do to this day.
