C-Rayz Walz
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
C-Rayz Walz is a rapper from The Bronx, New York. He is currently a member of the underground record label Definitive Jux and NY hip-hop syndicate Stronghold. In addition to releasing four LPs and one EP, he has appeared on many other rappers' records, including Aesop Rock and Immortal Technique, and has done work with such artists as Percee P and Messiah J & The Expert. Immortal Technique is reputed - by Walz himself - to be the only MC who can hold his ground against Walz in a freestyle battle.[1]
On June 29, 2005 he appeared with Toki Wright on MTV's Made series as "MADE Coaches" for a caucasian teenager named Nile Greenberg (son of Steven Greenberg) who wanted to be made into a rapper. This was the premier episode of the second series and featured Ghostface Killah, Snoop Dogg and The Game. He also appeared on the 2005 compilation album Wu-Tang Meets The Indie Culture.
