Brotha Lynch Hung (born Kevin Mann) is a rapper from Sacramento, CA. Lynch's lyrics are notorious for featuring highly explicit themes, including murder, gang violence, drug use, rape, and cannibalism. Lynch debuted with the 1993 album 24 Deep, which featured stories of the struggles involved with being affiliated with a local street gang in Sacramento's "Garden Blocc." He has also collborated with artists such as E-40 and C-Bo.
His's second album Season of Da Siccness in 1995 proved to be the one of the most gruesome and mysogynistic Gangsta Rap albums ever released, graphically chronicling a life of drug use and sale, promiscuity, ultra-violence, rape, infanticide (he often spoke of eating & killing his baby momma's children while still in the womb), and supposed cannibalism. This is Lynch's most commercially successful album, as it has now achieved gold album sales status.
Lynch's lyrics are described as sicc -- having the same meaning as the word sick but utilizing the double "C" which is characteristic of local Crip gangsters (loccs) in Sacramento, CA and other parts of California. Lynch has stated in his song "24 Gone" that he himself is a Crip, residing in Crip areas of Sacramento has had an influence on his lyrics. He has since released Loaded in 1997. The next Lynch album was released in 2000 called EBK4 after a dispute with Black Market Records. The label allegedly restricted his creativity by featuring artists on the album against Lynch's will. Lynch asked his fans not to buy the album. He said "I don't care how they get it just don't buy it or steal it".[citation needed] Brotha Lynch released the DVD of Now Eat in 2000, which features a blood thirsty and cannibalistic Lynch who goes on a rampage, killing and eating many people.
Lynch released Blocc Movement and Virus in 2001, Appearances: Book 1 in 2002, and in that same summer of 2002 he released his first DVD, Plague. Lynch's newer work includes Lynch by Inch: Suicide Note and Uthanizm in 2003, and the Now Eat DVD in 2000. In 2006 he released a collaboration with rapper MC Eiht entitiled "The New Season."
Brotha Lynch's next album, "Dinner and a Movie", is expected to be released in 2006.
