Since the early 90′s Shabere Dorsett’s combination of a powerful love for hip hop, and a fiery passion for creating honest and real music, led him to become a front runner of the North Carolina rap scene. With his strong, raspy vocals combined with brutally honest and accurate lyrics, Shabere has developed a diverse fan base, which respect and appreciate his messages, honesty, and lifestyle. After graduating from Smithfield Selma Senior high school, and becoming a well respected local rap phenom, Shabere decided to expand his world view and join the US Army, where he served four years across the globe in countries such as Germany and Korea (south I’m guessing). While gaining life experience and seeing the true ills of the world, Shabere decided to leave the Army after 4 years, come back to Smithfileld and do what he does best: create visions with his words. First inspired by Master P, UGK, T.I., and Big Pun, Shabere felt that the music has to be honest, it has to paint the picture, and if you can’t build your fans at home, you can’t build your fans everywhere else. When his debut album Shabere is Here hit the streets, it was a firestorm of buzz. People from all across NC wanted a copy after years of anticipation. 15,000 copies later, the legacy of “The Johnston County Giant” still stands, and moving forward, the outreach will only grow. His next project, “Shabere Is Here 2: Gangsta|Gentleman|Go-Getta” has the streets ready for more of the same excellent music, provided by the purest of the struggled but self made men of Joco.
