Kid Crab, also known as Lamontiz, is a rapper from Milwaukee who has had a non-traditional path to success. He rose from battling bullies in his neighborhood to becoming both a police officer and hip hop artist. His career as an officer was stressful and conflicted with his love of hip hop. After leaving law enforcement, he pursued music full-time and networked widely across North America rather than just his hometown. His albums "Waitin' To Excel" and "Worldwide Hustle" demonstrate his skill with both hard and soulful rhymes. In 2002, the legendary Paul Hardcastle discovered Kid Crab's talent and they began a musical collaboration that has spanned over a decade

1. For rapper Kid Crab aka Lamontiz, the road to success has definitely been non-traditional.
This Milwaukee native, pioneer and legend ascended the ranks from battling bullies in his hood
to battling rappers in the neighborhood streets and stages; to fighting crime on judicial stages.
Although he considered it a noble profession, being an officer was stress filled and many times
a conflict of interest with his love for hip hop. Being once shot and wounded in the line of duty
made matters even more difficult going forward for him despite the honors of becoming a
recipient of the Purple Heart Award. Years later when his days of being an officer concluded, he
searched for ways to continue making a living while pursuing his dreams in a manner that
would be complimentary to both professions.
He immediately began to network and distribute his own brand and music widespread
throughout the North American region as opposed to marketing within his hometown city
limits. Having worn several hats and experienced life on 2 sides of the fence, his lyrical gift can
appropriately best be described as “sharper than a double edged sword”; far reaching with the
ability to penetrate diverse audiences and genres. He has clutched the microphone and blessed
tracks with his strong delivery of a combination of hard and often soulful rhymes.
He demonstrates this on his last two albums: Waitin’ To Excel and Worldwide Hustle.
In 2002, while filtering through tons of demo cd‘s, Kid Crab captured the attention of legendary
multi-platinum recording artist, award winning jazz musician and Grammy Nominee Paul
Hardcastle, who came across a Kid Crab disc. While listening, Hardcastle instantly recognized
Crabs' skills which were superior to the rest and immediately contacted Crab from overseas.
After nearly a two hour phone conversation, many musical collaborations between the two
would follow and the rest is history. To date, their history, spans over a decade, and includes
feature performances and credits on several BILLBOARD chart topping albums such as
“Jazzmasters 4”, “Desire”, and “Hardcastle 4” which hit #1.
