"Music is my Mistress, and she won't take being 2nd to no one." - Lou Rawls Born June 1, 1985 and raised in Garland, TX, a suburb located in the Northeastern area of Dallas, Stoney C has been in a longstanding relationship with his music for awhile. Antwone Shonerick Coleman-Pace, better known as Stone or other monikers "Stoney C" or "Stone of G-$quad," has had to compete for a place in the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex music scene since 2004 and and has done so in exceptional fashion with the weight and scrutiny of the Garland, TX city and label on his back. Growing up in a 3-bedroom house in East Garland with his Mom, 3 sisters, 2 brothers, 3 aunts, 6 cousins and his 2 grandparents, he not only learned how to survive and make the best with what he had, but soaked in alot of old-school Soul/R&B music and Hip-Hop music to later influence his whole style later in life. Stone is very chill, suave and cool. Some would say he's quiet, but he's only that way when he chooses. It's always the quiet ones you have to watch out for and with Stone's musical talents, people eventually did just that. He is versatile and has been intriguing the ears of listeners of old and new since his origin group G-$quad, solo career as an artist and now as an Executive Producer. All he asks for nowadays after doing countless songs and shows for his city (Garland), his state (Texas) and his region (The South), is that yall respect is pen.
