King Magnetic got his start in 1995 opening for groups like The Fugees and headlining his own local shows. During his high school years he began a string of incarcerations for assaults, robberies and drugs. After a 5-year sentence for robbery in 2001, he faced drug & gun charges in New York. Upon being released from prison Magnetic decided to slow start a family while building his music catalog. He could still be seen performing regionally, gaining notoriety for his flow, while producing tracks for some of PA's independent artists. Magnetic began receiving some national attention in 2005 when he produced the Philadelphia anthem "The Sound of Philadelphia" for Reef the Lost Cauze. The song would go on to air on ESPN Monday Night Countdown, a 76ers game & a British Documentary. In 2007, Magnetic began recording his 1st official iTunes released mixtape, Everything's A Gamble Vol. One which showcased his beat-making and rhyming abilities. It consisted of songs from 2003 - 2006 & featured underground heavyweights such as: Channel Live, Sean Price, Edo G, Chino XL, Copywrite amongst others. While mixing "EAG" in July 2007, Magnetic was invited to appear on the Army of the Pharaohs (AOTP) 2007 LP "The Ritual of Battle". AOTP is a collective spearheaded by Jedi Mind Tricks' front man Vinnie Paz & features Apathy, Celph Titled, Esoteric, Reef the Lost Cauze & others. After standing out on tracks such as "Drama Theme" & "Black Christmas", Magnetic earned a spot as an official member in the Army of the Pharaohs.

Shortly after making his cameos on AOTP's album, Magnetic shot his 1st promotional video, "I Don't Know You" debuted on Billboard.com, allmusic.com's Top 5 New Hip-hop Videos, ArtofRyhme.com & other music sites. In early 2008 he followed up with his "Crown Me" video & began doing more collaborations. Slowly becoming more visible, he entered a Red Bull Beat Battle, did some tour shows with JMT, and recorded with Young Guru and KRS-One for Stop The Violence 08. In 2009, Magnetic recorded for various projects including: Apathys Wanna Snuggle?, East Coast Avengers, Quakers project with Portisheads Geoff Barrow, the 3rd AOTP LP, King & The Cauze - Shadyville mixtape and album - a collaboration album with Reef the Lost Cauze & Everythings A Gamble Vol. Two.
