Although Breadcrumbs true birth parents are unknown, it has become accepted that his birthplace is New York, NY, back stage at a Doug-E-Fresh concert in early Sept '83. While there were no witnesses to the birth, sources say he was found near central park fighting ducks and pigeons for moldy bread with a Run DMC shirt for a diaper and a concert V.I.P wristband on his ankle. This early struggle for survival has been credited for Breadcrumbs edgy rap name as well as his gritty lyrical flow and well deserved street cred.
From this park, the infant Breadcrumb was said to have been rescued by a tap dancing street bum named Smitty. Even though Smitty was homeless, he was hungry… for a better life. So before giving Breadcrumb to more suitable caretakers, he shared with the youngster all his knowledge and love for dance, which is where Breadcrumb developed his impeccable footwork, which the world now gets to enjoys.
Just before Breadcrumbs first birthday, Smitty came up eleven bucks short on a ten dollar lap dance at a local strip joint. To pay the tab, Breadcrumb was offered as currency. The dancer accepted. Her name was Barbara, but everyone called her "Sprinkles." Some say that she was ironically a distant cousin to Breadcrumb's eventual sidekick Confetti, but that has not been proven. While Sprinkles was no brain surgeon, she had a good heart and tried to help Breadcrumb the best she could. She taught him to read by the age of two, but the only books she could read were Dr. Suess, which left Breadcrumb unable to speak without rhyming. Sprinkles' co-workers adored Breadcrumb and did their best to help raise him. They baby-sat Breadcrumb when Sprinkles was on stage and can all agree that his first word was "Sideboob".
As an early adolescent, Breadcrumb developed an eye condition. Whether it was from all the second hand bar smoke or the cheap stripper perfume, the only prescription was cool flashy shades. While many looked at Breadcrumb's reliance on dope eyewear as a disability, doctors say it may have been his saving grace. Tragically, he got mixed up in a run-by water ballooning while leaving his thirteenth birthday outside the local Chuck-E-Cheese. No suspects were named in the attack, but sources say Breadcrumb did have the high score in Skee-Ball that day, which could have provoked gang violence. This traumatic encounter with death was a wake up call and Breadcrumb vowed to turn his life around. After months of drying off and rehabbing from the multiple bruises and Charlie-horses to his forearm, Breadcrumb was able to perform a few tap dance solos on stage with Sprinkles. His dancing was a success, plus it was during happy hour, which earned Breadcrumb enough Washingtons to afford a bus ticket any where in the country. So he wisely decided to head south to a city where a 14 year old man could make a name for himself….Ocala, FL.
On the bus, Breadcrumb became inspired, leading him to write the lyrics for 3 full 15 song albums on the side of a Styrofoam Taco Bell cup. Rumor has it that after writing this masterpiece, Breadcrumb developed an uncontrollable craving for a bag of cheetos. After approaching every other passenger as well as the driver he returned to his seat to find his cup of lyrical gold missing. While no one has ever claimed responsibility for the missing cup, many rap fans say its genius was responsible for the creation of "The Chronic", Biggie's "Life and Death", all the 2Pac albums, and both of "Blue Prints."
Arriving at his destination, Breadcrumb was devastated by what he'd lost. After a risky mixing of a Happy Meal and countless Shirley Temples, Breadcrumb consequently passed out cold. He awoke the next morning in Gainesville at the feet of the one they called Mr. Confetti, Confetti for short. Confetti was also a 15 year old dancing and rapping entrepreneur with a fairly normal upbringing. The two became instant allies. This moment in time has been referred to by astronomers as "The Second Big Bang", also know as the birth of the Random Tandem.
