about
Brick Casey is an old school, Boston-based, hip-hop artist, composer and producer. Born Casey Staton, on July 4th, 1970, the young artist was bred on the streets of Boston’s urban neighborhoods. By age 11, he was performing rap, theatre and dance and growing into one of the key players in the emergence of hip hop during the eighties. In 1992, he was signed to Polygram/Mercury Records, where he worked with prominent A&R hit man, Bruce Carbone. He recorded his hit "Smooth", which was remixed by the prominent club and remix DJ, Kenny Diaz, a.k.a. "Kenny Dope." This ultimately led to a production deal with Peer Music, Ltd. in conjunction with Underground Productions, Inc. In 1995, the DBK Label chose four of Casey’s titles for Street Poets -- a compilation featuring Boston’s best rap artist -- "Out Ta Flip", "209A", "Neighborhood" and "What Cha Need".[1] At the time, he went by the name Polecat, and his songs received heavy airplay in college radio and international record pools. After his deal with Mercury Records expired, Staton signed on with Underground Productions as a recording artist and composer for BUMP, Underground Music’s publishing arm. With this newly acquired position, he landed film and television song placements [2] on shows such as Melrose Place, Weeds, The District, Hidden Palms, Sox Appeal, Turntable (the movie), and many more. He wrote the theme song for the Joan Rivers reality show, How’d You Get So Rich, with Underground Production’s owner/producer Dow
