Butta Verses, a Bronx-bred rapper who now calls Fort Lauderdale, Florida home made his debut appearance on De La Soul’s 2004 release The Grind Date. Butta’s name was bestowed upon him by fellow MCs at local ciphers but once his mixtape reached the ears of DJ Maseo from De La Soul, his rhymes started reaching neighborhoods around the world. Maseo signed Butta to his label and he began touring with De La Soul to promote The Grind Date. Butta went on to release several mixtapes while playing over 200 shows on De La Soul’s international tours and began recording with his crew GCD (Glee Club Detention) as well as Seattle’s Vitamin D and Bean One for his debut album "Brand Spankin".
