By: Keisha McCotry With messages in his music relating to people around the world, Starsky; born Shahid Thomas, is well aware of the effect his music has on thousands of hip hop fans overseas. In 2008, he traveled to Europe & happened to be on a mini-tour in Italy. “When I went over there [Europe], people already had my CD’s & t-shirts with my name on it. On my tour in Italy, I traveled to seven different locations and everybody knew my music, word for word. It sparked a light in me to provide more music to fans who appreciate conscious, real hip hop music,” Starsky reflects. Artist Profile Aptly known as The Voice of New Jersey, Starsky began writing and honing his lyrical skills at the young age of 12. Pulling influences from legendary artists Nas, Biggie, and Jay Z, Starsky released his first street album entitled Blast Fa Know in 2000.
