 Alex Withersoon was born in Clarksville, TN December 29, 1986. His rap career started in Lincoln Holmes projects alongside Cousin Devin Wylie (Mac Greasy) at the age seven. He was then known as Lil A and his first song was called ‘Jenine’, where he vented about his second grade crush alongside Mac Greasy. His passion for music grew more as he grew up and continued to see more of the struggle and wanted an outlet and source to express his feelings. Being that the name Lil A was so simple his grandmother Wanda Jackson gave him the name Alleykat as a nickname, due to his sneakiness and street ways at that time in his life. Alleykat began free styling at local night clubs and started being labeled as the freestyle king. He started to showcase his talent throughout Clarksville battling other local artist and soon extended his buzz in the city. By the age of fifteen, the name Alleykat had stuck and he dropped his first album called ‘Dirty Alley’, which represented every young hustler on the Southside of Clarksville, TN mainly targeting the neighborhood where he grew up Main Street. Soon he collaborated with his two cousins Main Boi Xa and Mac Greasy along with other local artists from the North side of Clarksville to form a group called The Project Boyz. Soon they founded a label called TLE (The Line Entertainment) and were very successful throughout their high school years. They dropped their joint album ‘Real Recognize Real’, and after high school choose to split up, the reason being growth, and maturity into their own. Alleykat soon began working on his solo project titled ‘Greater Later’, which showed the more mature, versatile side of him. He soon however stopped doing music and called it his early retirement. Life had taken a toile on him and at age nineteen with the birth of his first born son he choose to put his music and dreams on the back burner.Years passed Alleykat choose to join the military and now understood that life had no limits. Outside of Clarksville there were so many new opprtunities for him. With his music career now taking back off, he tries to stress to younger artits who live this life style that they can prevail as well. Alleykat is not only a rap artist, but also a ghost writer, and singer as well. The passing of his Grandmother was the ultimat wake up call for him.She died at the age of Fifty-Six and he felt as though she hadn't fully lived out her dreams, and she would definitely want him to live out his. She blessed him with being his Grandmother and continues to shown him visions and dreams to be successful. Alleykat stated that "Everyday I wake up and I pick up a microphone I do it for her. And remember its Nu days, Nu ways and most importantly Nu Money. There is no more stopping my new label Nu Money Entertainment, its a movement.
