Str8 Business A.K.A Str8 B.I. is the most prolific individual with words since the late great Biggie Smalls, is the best way to describe this Far Rockaway, Queens New York native. Str8 B.I. is a high school dropout with a very unusual high IQ for a kid raised in Far Rockaway’s Edgemere Projects. The youngest of 4 raised by a single mother, a boy can find a lot to get into or a lot of things will try to get to him either of which should happen first it’s definitely suspenseful digging into the twisted tales and ideologies of this ghetto “Edgar Allan Poe “ to say the least.
