Action spent the next 6 months in the studio recording 58 joints. The idea was to find the right investors, go independent and clench a major deal. Action decided to shop for 6 months to try and get a deal. 550 Sony, Relativity, and Atlantic were eager to sign Action. The artist was expecting to probably close a deal late February early March 2000, but on January 3, 2000 Action was shot and paralyzed for five months. By mid 2000 Action returned to the studio to record 32 new tracks as he prepared to try to get a deal and be heard. He also returned to the road opening shows for CNN, Lil Kim, Shyne, Ja 'Rule, Lil Zane, Carl Thomas, Limp Bizkit and Tela. Currently a few labels have told the artist that they have their eye on the 20 something year old M.C.. Action is preparing now to independently drop his 2nd album in hopes to rise from the underground to take over the mainstream.. Several radio stations are now playing his hot new joint "Flow", and labels like Priority, La'Face, Universal , Interscope and J Records are starting to inquire about the rapper. With the right push, Hip-Hop should make way for its new star. Point blank, if you 're looking for a hot new rapper who's original, unique, and dope with a capital D, then you need not look any further. If you 're looking for an MC who can flow East, West, Midwest, North and South, whom is versatile and raw wit it, your search is over. If you 're looking for that high- energy performer, party rocker, crowd-pleasing rapper, a rapper with the rhymes, the style and the look, well look no more. You can put Action right on the level with Silk Mystical, Snoop, Xzibit, Eminem, Nelly, JayZ and DMX. He is that caliber of an MC. Rather freestyle, a written full song or even a hot 16 bars this artist stands to be one of the best commercial or underground. So be aware, it's time: Lights! Camera!
