Ready Rock C
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Clarence Holmes[1] (born April 1968 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania),[citation needed] better known as Ready Rock C, is an American Hip hop record producer, beatboxer, rapper, and a record producer. He is best known for his early career with Will Smith and Jeffrey Townes, then known as DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince.[2] According to Holmes, he left the group in 1990 because Smith "wanted the spotlight all to himself."[1]
Holmes sued Smith and Townes in 1999, claiming he was owed one-third of the group's profits. The case was dismissed because the statute of limitations had expired.[1][3]
