Biography

Born in the heart of Detroit in 1984, Daran McCullough is a true testament to overcoming the odds that were so clearly stacked against him. While Daran was a youngster, his father succumbed to the addiction of drugs. Raised in a single parent home, Daran was only15 years old when he was forced to provide for his family. He too was caught up in the inner-city life, but only for a moment.

Against all odds, Daran performed well in high school by maintaining a 3.0 GPA and graduating in 2002. At 19, while attending college, Daran came to the realization that he possessed the characteristics of a natural-born leader. However, his medium was unclear until the next year.

In 2003, President and CEO of Hot Lava Records, Crane Novacane, overheard Daran rapping. Immediately, Crane knew Daran had the talent to become a multi-platinum artist. Therefore, Stretch Money was born and the medium for Daran's gift was found.

Stretch's allegiance to Hot Lava and Crane extends far beyond money. It is based upon the belief that the Hot Lava family will create a legacy that will endure long in the heart of Detroit.

In the subsequent years, Hot Lava assembled a world-class team to manage and promote Stretch. His debut album, Takes Money to Make Money was released on September 18, 2006. Three music videos promoting the album contributed to the album being well received by listeners. Stretch has performed on nationwide college tours and has opened for national acts including Rick Ross and Young Jezzy.

Knowing that his young fans can relate to his background, Stretch has been committed to giving back to the community. He has participated in the Salvation Army's annual Coats for Kids drive. He has spoken at Cease Fire Michigan rallies alongside many community leaders such as radio personality Reggie Reg Davis and Wayne County Prosecutor Kym Worthy.

Currently, Stretch is back in the studio working on his sophomore album Time is Money. Fueled by the success of his recent mix tape, The Punishment, Stretch and Hot Lava know that his fans are anxiously awaiting this new release and it is sure to be a hit.

With Stretch's focus standing firmly on the future, surely there will be many more great accomplishments. Stretch's story is truly an inspiration to all who face overwhelming odds. It is proof that in one brief moment, a man can change his start in life.
