Shyste

Albany, New York

Shyste, or, Shyste Chronkyte has earned the reputation of being one of the most prolific MCs in existence. Hailing from Upstate NY, 518, he has been destroying mics, vocal booths and venues for almost 20 years. He has forsaken pop recognition or fame, for the freedom to do the type of music he believes in. Simple and plain...He's that real shit.
