Back It Up
A strong Lyricist and a soulful R&B Artist, Giovanni is making waves in the music industry! Born Christopher Blake, Giovanni is a Fort Worth, Tx native. His drive and passion for music was nurtured and groomed in church, where he grew up singing with his family and playing musical instruments. Since, the age of 11, Giovanni spent days and nights freestyle battling in the streets and writing his own music. Giovanni's highly anticipated mix tape, "Everybody Hates Chris" will release in Oct 2011. His hit single, "Let Me Touch That" is getting rave reviews and spins from DJs across the world! Giovanni will drop his debut album, "Fort Worth the Wait" in the Summer 2012. After high school Giovanni enlisted in the United States Army, where he continued to develop the discipline and focus which drives his passion for music. While most of us can never imagine combat in a war torn Iraq, Giovanni served his Country with pride and dignity. While serving in Iraq, Giovanni continued to write music and press on. After serving his country, Giovanni returned home and focused, full force, on building his music career. With the release of several successful mix tapes, he took on an aggressive schedule performing open mic concerts and showcases, producing, songwriting as well as ghostwriting for local artists. In 2005, Giovanni decided it was time to launch his own independent label, which he named "Is It Live" Records/ L.U.C. Productions.
