The Nathaniel Hardy Project Nathaniel S. Hardy, Jr. Douglasville Born in Baltimore, Maryland. (B-more). At a very young age I knew that my interest has always been creating music. By the time I was 17 years old I was making numerous beats for the "up and coming" New York City "hip-hop" artist who are now known the world over. To keep myself out of trouble I joined the Cherry Hill Junior High School Band and started playing the Bass Cello when I was in the 7th grade; however it proved too heavy for me to carry home after many months, so I switched to the Trombone and played it until the 9th grade. Performing as a front man in three local bands by the age of 16, and after numerous failures in the different bands and my disappointment with the major record label we were signed to (I swore "NEVER" to sign with a label again, even though I still receive offers) and an uncertainty of where my life was headed I joined the U.S. Navy were I met some "brotha's" who were VERY talented that could sing, write, as well as play musical instruments; but lacked the courage and hunger to go out there and make their dreams a reality, some of them had no sense of direction and were very "negative" in trying to achieve their "so-called" passion in music. "That was my inspiration! God gave me the talent. I need to use it!" I learned that my "passion" is and has always been music. "What was I thinking?" "Being an "Independent Artist" there's nothing that I feel I can't do when once I put my mind to it!" "If there's anything that anyone has learned about me it's that I'm dedicated more than you'll ever imagine when there is something that interest me." If there is not interest then it can "Kick rocks!" Music is my interest! I decided to change my artist name to "The Nathaniel Hardy Project" because I managed to get my projects done by myself because music is a part of my life even though I only have a few tracks at first. Music has taught me one thing, and this is my saying and don't let anyone tell you any different: "NEVER depend on anyone else to put you in a place that you want to be!" I have had numerous promises that ended up to "Nowheresville." I am "The Nathaniel Hardy Project" Google me!!! "A "Brotha'" that is from the "streets", and who can mix all the different beats!" - Nathaniel Sidney Hardy, Jr. Users who are followed by The Nathaniel Hardy Project CARLA Christian Robidoux Christian Robidoux Ed Eagle Nick Naranz Nick Naranz BernieStone Gillingham, Kent OG_Nard BIG OG Miami dade
