ABOUT F1 DIAMOND: After 6 years away from the music business, F1 Diamond seemingly emerges from out of nowhere with a fresh new perspective and approach to hip-hop. Born and bred in Milwaukee, WI in 1974; he began his quest into hip-hop at the age of 8-years-old and submerged himself into the culture and lifestyle. It was at this time when F1 Diamond, whose real name is Radontae Ashford, also fell in love with the perils of street life.
He can often be heard reminiscing about being reared and mentored by street gangsters at a young age. However, his love for hip-hop would serve as a buffer in his early years to prevent him from going too far into the lifestyle he was being groomed for.
Like so many others, F1 Diamond began to follow his pipe dreams of hip-hop stardom, recording under the name Mr. Do It To Death, where he released several local and regional albums on Infinite Recordings.
