About Konvict -
Real Name: John McMullen Stage Name: Konvict Born: Jan.4th 1991 at St. Josephs Hospital Hamilton,ON.... .... Being born to a single teenage parent at the age of 15, life was rough. His mother tried to raise him the best she could and provide everything that is needed but at such a young age its alot easier said then done, but she never gave up working two jobs to pay bills and support her son. The life leading to Konvicts music career is to much to list all in here but listen to his music and you will hear nothing but truth from his past and what is still happening now. The name Konvict was chosen based on his criminal record. In and out of jail since 13 years old, convicted of everything from theft, assault to robberys, aggrivated assault and everything inbetween he finally realized that jail is not the place to be. Following Hip-Hop/Rap and R&B music since an infant it was seen as his only escape from the brutal reality's of life in Hamilton. A life that for some is rarely ever seen except what makes it to the news. For some its a choice to be involved in criminal activity for others they are born into it, with no other real options, forced to make the best out of what they have, even when sometimes its nothing at all. Realizing his lyrical talent while writing in custody Konvict knew this was his ticket, his only option to make something worthwhile out of life. After starting a rap group titled Steel City Movement after his release from custody oct. 07 he began recording with another artist. In the end it didn't work out and both artists went there separate ways. Alone in this game Konvict took a break with music and got involved in illegal activity again, getting arrested 4 more times before he met his girlfriend Sky Becker.She is what keeps him going day in day out thinking positive when life throws nothing but negativity at you. Since he has met her she has been his inspiration to make his music happen, She will be the mother of his child ( Due date August 10th 2009) and is the reason he keeps going when there is little or no hope left. Starting a new life, fresh, seemed impossible and it proved to be just that. All he can do is keep making hits and hope he is recognized for his musical talent. Until that day the struggle continues........
