KEMIST DA KIDD, (born October 18,1986), is an American rapper, songwriter and entrepreneur from Dallas, Texas. Born in Atlanta, GA, where he spent the first six years of his life, until his parents separated and he was up rooted to Freeport, NY. At the age of 15, the family again relocated, this time to Dallas, Texas.

Each state had an influential impact to his style of rapping. Music has always been a passion for Kemist, but his drive to make it his career came from his older cousin, who taught him how to freestyle, and what started, as a hobby quickly became his passion. By the age of 12, he had honed his skills to next level status and began actively working towards getting signed. Kemist performed everywhere from the school playground to his neighborhood street corner. Kemist began garnering the attention of not only his peers, but industry executives as well. At the age of 14, a family friend arranged a meeting between Kemist, his mother and an A&R for Bad Boy Records. He thought his prayers had been answered. After sitting in the meeting for hours, rapping his heart out about any topic the A&R threw out, it was clear that Kemist had raw talent. A second meeting was quickly scheduled and again,he left the room in awe. After two successful meetings Kemist felt sure that he was on his way to becoming a national artist. With his dreams on the horizon, he was completely devastated when his mother announced that they would be moving to Texas in a matter of weeks. He begged his mother not to make him go, but leaving him behind was simply not an option, so his mother and four siblings moved to Texas. Though it wasn’t his decision to move, he refused to let this situation deter him from his goal.
