Moses Uvere

Born and raised in Dallas Texas, Moses Uvere was the first born to Patience and Gabriel Uvere, immigrants who came to America to seek the "American Dream." Being brought up by parents from a different country, Moses witnessed first hand what the "American Dream" was all about - and saw the struggle to achieve a better life. Living in poverty stricken areas, Moses had an up close view of growing up poor; sharing clothes with his brothers, wearing hand me downs, and not getting much during the holidays. Moses was an active kid who always played sports and was a fine football prospect in high school. His sports career was cut short due to the fact that his mom left the family - Moses, the eldest of the four, had to grow up quickly to help his dad raise his two little brothers and his little sister. "The things in my life didn't break me, but made me the man I am today." Music had always been apart of his life and after being in the group Minority Authority for a few years, Moses struck out on his own. He met up with Dustin Cavazos who produced his latest release, From Worse to Better. The album is a reflection of past experiences that he has seen and lived, and is influenced by artists such as Kanye West, Common, Pigeon John, Issac Hayes, and Musiq Soulchild. Moses had performed alongside notable artists like Paul Wall, Grits, Playaz Circle, Chingo Bling, Deepspace 5, and Manafest. He has also appeared on the television show "Family Net" with In Touch Ministries and Dr. Charles Stanley, based in Atlanta, Georgia. He was the 2008 West Texas Talent Show winner. He has toured nationally 4 times in the last 2 years with the extreme sports tour (3 times) The Back On My Grind Tour with DJ Promote from syntax records(once) and already has performed in festivals such as Atlanta Fest and O.N.E. Festival. He will be touring nationally this summer for the Third year. If you would like more info please visit at: www.mosesuvere.com Read more on Last.fm.
