Hittman

From Rap Dictionary

Real name Brian Bailey, Hittman was born and raised in Inglewood,California. He was supposed to be Dr. Dre's next big discovery, and he featured prominently on Dre's second album "2001". In a interview for MTV in 2000 Dr. Dre says:Well, Hittman is our next protege. He's the next person that we're going to groom and try to build into a superstar, super hip-hop star. He's incredible. He could sing, his rhymes are ridiculous, and his delivery is incredible. That's why he's heard on the album probably more than I am, you know what I'm sayin'. He's incredible. And he's a real cool, laid-back guy, you know, so I know, outside of the studio, he's not going to do anything to ruin his career.

Hittman signed to Aftermath Entertainment and in 2000 his first album "Murder Weapon" was released. But soon after recording the album he left the label.

Hittman released "Hittmanic Verses" in 2006. There is only few new songs in the album and it didn't sell good,too.

Hittman is one of the most talented rappers but he was not a successful artist and has fallen off the map since Dre's second album "2001".
