RAPPER/TEACHER/LAWYER PREPARES NEW ALBUM!!!!
TRIPLE THREAT IS PREPARING TO STRIKE AGAIN!!!!
It's rare when you find a person who's been able to successfully maneuver two careers at the same time but what about three. That person would be Houston rapper Swiff Haywire (stage name). The Houston resident has not only broken into the music industry, he's a certified teacher at the Houston Independent School District and he recently graduated from law school. Haywire began his career by writing songs for such movie soundtracks as the Mario Van Peebles' movie "Panther". From there he wanted more, so Haywire decided to pursue his college education and became a teacher and just last year he graduated from law school. But Swiff tells The Insite his passion is still music. So he's preparing to release his latest album in the next couple of weeks. It's a follow up to the 2004 release "Good Boy, Gone Bad". So if you're at Barbara Jordan High - you can find him teaching, if you're in court you may be able to catch him handling a case or turn on the radio and you could hear him dropping lyrics. Keep your ears to the ground for his next release.
Now that's a positive role model for kids. How come we're just hearing about him.
ReplyDeleteWhy can't I find Panther on DVd or Video? I found one copy on ebay, they were asking for like $200. No kidding! If anyone know why this is so, or where I can find one, let me know. Also, Lydia Harris has a new book out, "Married To The Game", it says that the same guy (her husband) that started Deathrow Records, started Rap-A-Lot Records with $200,000 in seed money...
