Being half French and half Jewish Met came up battling on street corner ciphers and local Mc competitions with a mission to prove himself as an mc. Met attended LaGuardia “Fame” high school of the performing arts as a vocal major in the late 80’s and began searching for a path to follow in music.
As a concert pianist in the 50’s, Met’s grandmother was a big inspiration and attribution to his natural ability to play keys and produce music. Big Daddy Kane was Met’s first influence to writing rhymes. Kane said “you could put wings on your tongue and still couldn’t say nothing fly” and met thought it was the most genius thing he had ever heard. After he heard that line, met sacrificed every minute of his day thinking of clever punch lines, metaphors, and wordplay to show off to the neighborhood hip hop heads. This is where the name “Mr. Metaphor” was born. He started calling radio stations like Martin Moore and DJ Meham, Stretch Armstrong and Bobbito, and any other radio station he could get his voice heard on.
He began making a local buzz for himself. After internal conflict with his first group “SUB 4”, met decided to accept the invite from the other local Park Slope group making noise “Zooty Zoo”, and joined forces with Building Block (Block McCloud) and Will Tell. The 3 artists formed the group Word A Mouth and went on to be featured on the Lyricist Lounge Volume 1 album hosted by De La Soul. This Album was released in the golden era of hip hop and opened up an audience to Mr. Met so detrimental to his success today.
Soon the legendary Pumpkinhead, another Park Slope native MC came into the picture and the chemistry between the artists was like none other. They formed the Brooklyn Academy and went on to release a number of independently released records that topped college radio, billboard and dance charts.
Mr Met released his first and only independently produced album “Metropolis” in 2005. Experimental and mainly self produced, met composed a play list of no sample songs he created on the Triton Keyboard, playing different melodies and chords, singing his hooks, and experimenting with his bi-lingual capability to rap and sing in French. That same year met traveled to Cannes France with the Lyricist Lounge for the “Midem” conference, and made some strong business contacts with many international music companies around the world.
Along with experimenting on the musical side of hip hop, met decided to step into the business side of the entertainment business and began event coordinating and throwing parties. He started Remarcable Entertainment which has now gained a very respectful reputation for its brand. Met has worked with Funk Master Flex of NY’s hot 97, DJ Gold finger, DJ Red Alert, Stretch Armstrong, Rich Medina, and has gained relationships with hundreds of DJ’s in NYC. As a solo artist met has toured England, Canada, France, and has performed in Vermont, Albany.
New Jersey, and countless venue’s in NYC. As a member of Brooklyn Academy Met has toured all over the world and countless cities up and down the east coast and the Midwest. Met is a highly respected artists. He is your favorite artist’s favorite artist. His witty lines, advanced flows, bi-lingual raps, and incomparable ability to write a song separates him from the over saturation of mc’s in the hip hop game. He is a true professional song composer made for the entertainment business.
