About Me

Harlem has undoubtedly etched its mark in the hip hop wall of fame. From producing highly acclaimed rap pioneers like Doug E. Fresh, Cash Crew, Kurtis Blow, Big L, and Mase to new age acts like Camron, Loon, Jae Millz, and Jim Jones, Harlem has played a major role in the evolution of hip hop. Harlem rap sensation Doc “00” Johnson represents the elite and talented new generation of hip hop artists emerging to bring the glory back to one of the founding cities of hip hop culture. When mainstream hip hop fans think about modern day Harlem-based rappers, Dipset instantaneously comes to mind along with rhymes about flashy living, the drug game, womanizing, and simplistic sing along hooks. Looking for an artist that manifests topics of substance and change? Tired of commonplace “bubblegum” raps? Want to follow someone who relates to and represents the masses? Then “00” is the new artist you’re checking for. Just as the Johnson reveals that the “00” in his name symbolizes how Johnson is “starting from scratch, coming from nothing,” his music wipes the Harlem hip hop slate clean, as he and his crew, the Numba Runnas, take it back to a time in history before the drug game took hold of the streets, a time when number running, bootlegging, prostitution, rent parties, church events, and other means of survival formed an underground economy that fulfilled the needs of the community. Doc “00” Johnson and his Numba Runnas crew use beats, rhymes, and life to bridge the gap between past to present, creatively educating the masses on other methods for survival by any means necessary. Says Johnson, “I have something new, a different story to bring to the table where I don’t have to try to emulate and be some kind of gangsta or mobster, I can just relate to our true roots, where we came from, you know, how our families survived before people was talking about going on the corner and selling drugs
