iKidduNot Entertainment was started by spoken word artist, author, lyricists, and freelance writer J-Kidd. Kidd is an IET graduate from the University of Southern Mississippi. He was born December 30, 1985 in the small town of Decatur, MS. Despite his engineering degree he proclaims that his heart truly lies within the English, reading, and music realm. He started writing poems and indulging in the art of hip-hop around the tender ages of 15 and 16. Shortly afterwards, he realized he had an uncanny ability to turn his feelings into poetry.
It did not take Kidd long to realize his poetry had a voice; however it did take him a while to find that voice. He transformed his words into music and began recording on a computer with a small microphone. He nurtured his talents through inspirations such as 2pac, Outkast, No Limit, the Hot Boyz, and other various artist of that era. He shared this passion and love for music with a few close knit friends in the community. J-Kidd and these friends formed a group and begin to write and record songs together. They later bought equipment to create and in-house studio and coined themselves as D3. The group recorded under the indie label Get Ya Mind Rit Entertainment and made multiple mixtapes and albums.
D3 had a high success rate in local and surrounding areas, but the group has yet to find their big break. Despite this, J-Kidd has never let go of his passion for writing. He still stays up wee hours of the night jotting his thoughts down but his focus is catered towards spoken word and books. He recently published his first book entitled "Black Bold Beautiful But Still Not Free." It can be found on Amazon.com and ordered upon request in your local book store. Kidd has high hopes of one being able to leave his 9 to 5 and live off of his ability to write. In his free time, he can be found at spoken word venues among many other talented artists performing and selling his books and apparel.
