Lawrence Fuller AKA Meta was born January 19th, 1981 in Munster, Indiana and raised in Brooklyn, New York by a working father and a minister mother, Meta was introduced to and involved in music at a very young age. After moving to Minnesota at the age of 8 Meta’s mother became the minister of music at Pilgrim Baptist Church in St. Paul and it is there growing up listening to the Sounds of Blackness where Meta got his musical start. At age 9, he was cast in the Sounds Of Blackness play, “Let The Children Sing.” A quiet, yet outgoing child, the spotlight was both a gift and a curse. He went on to direct the church’s youth choir, The Spirit Of Christ, at age 15. Teaching parts to tenors, altos and sopranos broadened his ear for melodies and it was at that time he learned the importance of stage presence.

Meta first made his name as a rapper in the Twin Cities by becoming a successful battle rapper consistently winning local battles. Since his early days as a battle rapper Meta has become more known for his amazing stage presence, intelligent lyrics, witty punch lines, and his whimsical sense of humor. Inspired by such rap legends as Outkast, Common, Jay-z, and Nas, Meta has an unrelenting drive to take his own music to new levels, perfect his craft and deliver his message through his music. .
