deciPher

Born Danny

Chung and raised in Philadelphia, Decipher experienced more ups and

downs in his youth than many go through in a life time. To call his family broken would be a huge understate-

ment. Conceived by a woman he would grow up calling “aunt” and a man that may have fathered him but

was never a father, his biological mother was left with no choice but to give him up to be raised by her sister.

In addition to all the family drama came financial struggles as well. He saw first hand how hard his immigrant

parents struggled for that slice of American Pie as they worked their way out of the ghetto only to find the

taste was fleeting and bittersweet. Incidentally, his newfound life of hard-earned luxury wasn’t meant to

last. It appeared lady luck held a grudge against the Chung clan, and before you could say ‘Good Life’ it was

straight back to the ‘Hood Life’ for them all.

Despite the tumultuous drama and turmoil, Decipher was able to find the one thing that remained steady

in his life. Thanks to an uncle that moonlighted as a party DJ, he got his first introduction to a music that

served as the voice for a people that needed to be heard because no one else could speak for them.

Young Decipher had discovered Hip-Hop. The renaissance of this genre in the early 90′s served as the

aural back drop that shaped and inspired him to understand the power of true honest expression. It

wasn’t too long before he realized that the very voices blaring through the headphones of his walkman

weren’t just those of the musical artists; they were also his voice. These MC’s weren’t just speaking to

him, they were speaking for him. This epiphany helped him to realize his life should no longer imitate

art, rather it should create it. He had found his identity and it enabled him to stand firm in the midst of

the twists and turns he was constantly experiencing.

Even when starting off as a battle MC, it was immediately apparent that he possessed undeniable

raw talent. Decipher not only had the requisite wit and charisma, but more importantly he had

the heart to turn ordinary words into a powerful message. It should be no surprise that he quickly

found himself in the company of other like-minded artists. After linking up with Johnnyphlo and

the independent label Treble & Bassment, Decipher worked hard to share his voice, releasing criti-

cally acclaimed mix tapes and albums while collaborating with some of the best Asian American

talent such as Ailee, Andrew Choi, Chan, and Shogunna. Fast forward to the present, Decipher is

now with MuZo Entertainment, the spiritual successor to TnB; and he continues his mission to

make sure he is heard. Just as the Hip-Hop MCs of yesteryear provided a constant influence that

shaped his identity, Decipher aims to do the same for today’s alienated Asian Americans who

also struggle to find their place in a society where there are too few voices to properly represent

them. Decipher speaks for anyone tired of having big media America dubbing over them like a

bad kung-fu flick and is here to provide the raw audio track where subtitles arenot necessary.

Because now he isn’t just speaking to us, he’s speaking for us.
