The “80's baby,” New York rapper, plans to make her mark in the music industry by staying at the top of her game forever. Given the name Cess Wonder, also known as Wonder Woman, was named thusly by her cousin when he recognized her ability to exude great strength and tenacity through tough times. The name stuck because it illustrated her powerful persona and she continued to exude the characteristics of a wondrous woman. The youngest of three, Cess Wonder grew up watching her two older brothers write and recite raps regularly. Being raised in a household where all types of music were constantly being played, it soon became her passion. At the age of eight, Cess Wonder began putting together local talent shows, where she would host as well as perform.

In her early teens, Cess Wonder had the honor of opening up for hip hop icon A.Z. at the The John Harms Theatre, now known as The Bergen Pac.

THE BIO OF R.H. BLESS FOUNDER & CEO OF BLOCK EXCHANGE
Heads lift up and ears tune in whenever Brooklyn emcee Rasheen “R.H. Bless” Hill serenades a microphone with his tales of graphic street reality, introspective consciousness and witty lyricism. While Bless has been featured on projects alongside some of the most influential and innovating artists such as Talib Kweli, Royce 5’9, Lord Jamar of Brand Nubian and Lil Wayne to mention a few, it is his multi-faceted approach to the music that has given him a strong leg to stand on.
Bless is the founder of his independent imprint, Block Exchange Entertainment. Under the Block Exchange umbrella, he has begun producing, shooting, and editing videos for his team and several other underground hip hop artists. Bless’ multitude of talents and abilities has helped bring forth his movement.
He has released several mixtapes and street albums including The Struggle, the Hustle, the Prayer (2004); and Heart and Soul of the Streets (2006) just to name a few. Bless has consistently appeared on mixtapes from coast to coast and across the pond in Europe on DJ Ophax and DJ Pimp tapes.
The Red Hook born emcee grew up listening to legends like Rakim, Big Daddy Kane and Kool G Rap. From Rakim he learned how to be authoritative with his lyrics, while he picked up Kane’s style and grace and G Rap’s street appeal. Fellow rapper and cousin Shabazz the Disciple, an affiliate of the Wu Tang Clan, also influenced Bless by exemplifying to him that great music was embedded in the heart and soul.
Nothing though is comparable to Bless’ ’09 grind. With the release of Bring That Beat Back Vol. 1 in May, Bless is set on dropping his Unsignable mixtape this Summer with the second installment of Bring That Beat Back to follow suit. And that’s not all, a fourth mixtape featuring his Block Exchange family: Cess Wonder aka Wonder Woman, Preech and Duss Smittoooo entitled Disturbing the Streets is scheduled for release later this year.
Yeah, Bless is going hard and aside from being an emcee, he created the Hip-Hop DVD magazine B.L.O.C.K. Report in 2007. With the DVD’s emphasis on the business, lifestyle, objectives, culture and keys to success in Hip-Hop, he’s established a medium to support up-and-coming underground artists.
“My mind is like a diamond: multi-faceted, many sides, each side necessary to make that diamond a unique one even with the flaws its still a diamond. That’s what I show you with my words,” Bless says.
Bless non-stop work ethic has taken him as far as Brazil to tour. In his own backyard Bless has caught the ear of college radio station deejays, receiving exposure and airplay within the New York City tri-state area.
Bless has laid the groundwork and foundation for a solid standing in the music business and has aligned himself with some great talent to collaborate with. Speaking as the heart and soul of the streets he comes forth with a passion and heartfelt realism that is promising to uplift his struggles to success.
