Career

In 2001, Mr. Envi' started releasing mixtapes locally catching the attention of a local radio personality at 107.5FM in Uniontown, Alabama, where he's originally from. This soon led him to his first single "Break His Jaw", to be aired on local radio. Shortly after, he moved to Louisiana where he felt he'd have a better opportunity to break out nationally. Mr. Envi' released his first album "Rydaz Redemption" in 2011. The album debuted at #3 on the CMJ National Hip Hop Add Charts. Rydaz Redemption was later followed by two EP's, "Kollaborationz" in 2012 and "Point of No Return" in 2013. He went on to sign a non-exclusive distribution deal with Oklahoma-based Tate Music Group, releasing one album entitled "The Recap" in 2014. In 2015, he partnered with the New Jersey-based marketing company Mia Mind Music to release "Damage Kontrol". The album was distributed by
