Album Notes

Ain’t Nothing Greater, A.N.G., has been rhyming for more than 10 years. Born and raised in Brooklyn, from the same hood of Jay-Z, M.O.P. and the late Notorius B.I.G. He's spit with the best of them, opened for the best of them, mixed-taped with the best of them, and has even ghostwritten for a couple of artists. Junior M.A.F.I.A., Mase, Lil' Kim, Jermaine Dupri, 112, 69 Boys, Redman, Cam'Ron, Charlie Baltimore are part of his background, he touched the stages as well with the studios with them. He's rhyming since he was thirteen. "It's all natural", he says when he lets his pen do the thinking, whether it's about what he's gone through, what he's seen, some of the things he wants to go through, with a beat, without a beat, beat box he proclaims "it's all natural". Assassins By Law (A.B.L) started back in the ‘80s, when A.N.G. and MC Terror and Gren first started rapping with the name A.T.G. The group separated in '93 but kept in contact and kept their pen games on point. A.B.L. formed a little while before the break up of A.T.G., and then added ANG’s brother MOE, and future Virgin Records artist Sonja Blade. Ain’t Nothing Greater was on his way to stardom, doing shows, sign to local record company Dech’m Records, when, in 2000, an untimely incident occurred causing him to get incarcerated for assault in the first degree. He was sentenced to 3 years and 6 months in the bin, starting 2002 until 2005. During his time away, Greater stayed positive knowing that they couldn’t hold him forever. His body was locked up but his mind was free. Feeling like the weight of the world was on his back, he used his pen to relieve some of the stress he was going through. It was there that he wrote the song “Look In My Eyes”. Fresh out of the pen, he became even more determined to make his mark in the rap game running into his old friend G-Fontana and after years apart the two recorded numerous songs in 2006, ready to release in 2007 under the new label Explode Records. In December 2006 one of his freestyles was broadcasted by Marley Marl’s Future Flava show and generated local buzz. Featuring club bangers as well as street issues and personal feelings, Ain’t Nothing Greater’s new album, “Lighter Fluid” will be in stores on March 13 2007 in the New York Tristate area and on the web.
