Hip-hop fans undoubtedly know one of his best performers - KRS-One. Under this pseudonym is Lawrence Krishna Parker, who was born on August 20, 1965 in New York, in the southern quarter of Brooklyn. The guy's rebellious character began to manifest itself as a teenager. Already at the age of 14, he left home, protesting against the school education system and excessive parental care. For some time he wandered, was convicted of hooliganism, theft. Nevertheless, he read many smart books, was especially interested in various religious movements, and became interested in Krishnaism. At one time he lived in a homeless shelter. There, for his addiction, he received the nickname Krishna. It is not known how many years KRS-One would have been trying to achieve success if not for a coincidence. Lawrence was given a room in a boarding house, and the neighbors were people sharing his passion for hip-hop. From that moment on, a creative career began and the emergence of the first collective Boogie Down Productions. The guys revolutionized music, introducing the world to gangsta rap, and KRS-One, as a lyricist, began to be considered the founder of this new style.
In 1987, a misfortune happened - the composer of the group Scott Sterling (pseudonym Scott La Rock) was killed. After that Lawrence radically changed the concept of creativity. The rapper's lyrics became instructive in nature, which led to the appearance of the nickname The Teacher (Teacher). The new texts touch on the problem of excessive drug addiction, focusing on racism. Along with music, Lawrence is also fond of cinema. The roles of KRS-One played in more than 20 tapes, mostly portraying himself. In addition, he has recorded soundtracks for some films. The musician's albums are still sold in huge circulations, and during concerts there are no empty seats at the venues.

KRS-One does not change hair color, giving preference to natural. The musician has a large, wide nose and a rounded chin. The musician is 193 cm tall and has tattoos.
