Emcee T, a.k.a. the Chinese King of the Bay (the C.K.O.T.B.), is stepping up as the first note-worthy Asian / Chinese-American producer & rapper to make a mark in the Bay Area rap game. Born in East Oakland, raised in Santa Rosa, and educated in Hayward & San Jose, T has been writing lyrics (and holding it down for the Asians) all over the San Francisco 'yay area' since 1995.
