***Milot***

Albanian born artist Milot Krasniqi is generating an undeniable buzz in the Underground New York City Rap & Hip Hop Circuit. Quotes ONEDEEP Management founder Joseph “ONEDEEP” Brown, who handles Booking & Promotion for Milot, “There's only one reason – He's hungry”. Born in Prishtina, Kosova on September 16th, 1981 to Rexhep & Mejreme Krasniqi, both established chemists in one of the city's laboratories, Milot was faced early on with the conflicts & oppression of a country in political and social unrest. By 1989, tensions in the region had escalated to a degree where Milot's parents felt driven, for the sake of the family, to gather what savings they had and relocate outside of Kosova – Their move was to the United States. The transition to a new country and a new language was extremely tough on all fronts. With many obstacles against finding gainful employment and housing, initially renting a small apartment in Coney Island, Milot's father was forced to work several jobs so his mother could care for the young children, Milot (7) and his sister (9), at home. Through struggle and persistence, his father was eventually able to secure a job in Manhattan and moved the family to Mid-Town, where they lived for 11 years, and more recently to Upper Manhattan, where they've been living for the past 6 years. Milot, through circumstance and conscience, began working at the age of 13 to help support the family. Looking beyond his hardships and social & financial barriers, Milot saw the chance for a better existence and was pushed, through often grim reality, to fight for what he really wanted to do in life. In the Mid 90's, Mobb Deep's “The Infamous” Album was an awakening inspiration and connection to Milot - he was soon writing his own rhymes with surprisingly instinctive, prolific, and natural force - from that point on Milot refers to this discovered passion as a “Wrap” on his calling in life. In 2002, Milot recorded and released an album in Kosova with a former Albanian Rap group called the “Bloody Alboz”(Bloodyalboz.com). A few of the songs on the album are still getting spins throughout the region, most notably on Prishtina's Urban FM 103.5, hosted by well known DJ Sport Billy. Milot has had a breakout year in 2005 on the NYC Underground Scene, playing noted clubs and venues such as Webster Hall, Pyramid, Remote Lounge, and Upscalez. He is currently on the city wide “Uncrowned King Of NYC Tour” hosted by HOT 97's DJ Megatron. The Albanian Rapper is scheduled to perform in Europe in 2006 and is currently in the studio recording tracks for his debut solo album “MILOTsophy”.
