Guest Biography

I Dat Zulu am a Baltimore native aged 41. My real name is Robert M. Ward Jr. I am the son of Baltimore Jazz and top 40 great Bobby Ward. My musical history includes graduating with theSemper Fidelis Award for musical excellence in 1989. I am an Edmonson Westside Sr. High school alumni. Shouts out to Mr. Stanley Brown who was my hardworking band teacher and guardian. I was also a student at James and Henrietta Holliman Music Studio on Bond St. I am also a former Apollo Theatre finalist and a former member of the Baltimore Colts Marching Band. Bringin' It Back is a project I started and finished in 2010. Songs SHE DOES and HUMMIN' THAT I LOVE U are inspired by and written for my fiance of 1yr. ( together for 3) Brande Michelle Carter. LOVE'S MELODY is also written in her honor. Bringin It Back seeks to rekindle African-American pride in African-American youth as well as others by piquing curiosity instead of preaching. Words like Nguzo Nane (en gu zoe nah nee) which are the 8 principles I live by reach to spark interest in a culture lost to the streets and lack of knowledge. Truthfully speaking it is my mission with this project, to aid in restoring respect for Hip- Hop and black culture, thus: "Bringin' It Back." Listen and Enjoy. Thanks for your support.
