A young American Hip-Hop Recording Artist from Jersey City, New Jersey with a mastermind !, better known simply as ''Pressure'' or ''Mr. Whut It Dew ?''.
At the age of 16, Darryl Sanford known to the entertainment industry as Pressure has done more than most teens do all day. Wake up, write down a hot 16, head to school, hit the studio to record, attend a scheduled photo shoot, then do it all again. With a style all his own and a swagger that captures the eye of many, Pressure is a Hip Hop phenomenon that writes his own lyrics and delivers them with a powerful confidence that puts him amongst the best in the game. Pressures talents doesnt stop there, he is an amazing graphic designer that designs and develops his own CD artwork, and has now began recording, mixing and producing his own music and videos.
Born in Jersey City, New Jersey growing up in Curries Woods Housing Projects, also known as "Da Woods", he has been no stranger to negativity. But as quoted from one of his songs entitled "Pressure 4 Mama" he spits "As a single mother she raised me with her best ability, responsibility is what I was shown with positive energy". Pressure obviously decided to take another route. Inspired by such musical influences such as Joe Budden, 50 Cent, Method Man, Dmx, Jadakiss, Fabolous, Jay-Z, Lloyd Banks, Drake, Rakim and Juelz Santana, he began writing at age 9 with poetry and by the time he reached 11 he wrote his 1st rap song. As his skills began to develop, his number 1 fan Deneter S. Sanford (his mother) decided to buy him the proper recording tools he needed to take it to the next level. After 3 short years of perfecting his craft, Pressure put a few songs and mixtapes together. Through a friend of his mother Richard "Big Sing" Singletary, his music landed in the hands of Jersey City's own production duo The Dream Team (Produced for 50 Cent, LL Cool J, Keyshia Cole, etc...). Together they have been working on his debut album, mixtape series entitled "Apply That Pressure", and Pressure's Online Music Videos directed and filmed by Now Is The Time Productions.
