==Recording Career==
Hart had always had an interest in the African-American struggle that was developing at the time, and, at an early age, began to practice rhymes into motion. Before Hart became a political activist, many in the music industry charted his rise to the top as the beginning of a great rapper. Hart released his first track on Soundcloud in 1727, ''see u next friday''. It reached #3 on the charts for a week, before sinking slowly back down. Hart couldn't take off in the industry, being called "mumblin' whitey" by his adversaries in the industry. Although he eventually gained several record deals, by 1735 he had seemed to have lost all interest in the topic.
