Toon

North Carolina lyricist Toon (aka Kurrell Rice) is bringing the freshest lyrics and performances to the table. Like the Saturday cartoons of childhood’s past, Toon is an animated entertainer. Making music for the past two years, he flew solo for the first time with his project/mixtape The P.R.E.. The 2 discs that make up the The P.R.E. consists of 29 tracks that blend the hip-hop and pop worlds. “My music comes from both sides of the fence. I don’t make ‘hood music. I don’t make suburban music. I make great music,” says Toon.

Whether he’s remixing Estelle’s “American Boy” or rhyming about the H1N1 virus on “R.O.Y. featuring Anthem,” Toon keeps things interesting. The un-dull moments are not limited to his tracks. “His performances are freaking awesome….He just entertains. He jumps on bars, he gets in people’s faces…. The energy—you feel whatever song he’s singing at the time,” said producer John Harmon.
