In 1974 Catherine Burks and Larry Bratcher gave LIFE to a baby boy named Jason Leroy Bratcher. He was the cutest, most loveable kid, mild mannered and very respectable. He went thru the NYC school system but acquired his GED in 1990. He was always an artist from the time he could hold a pencil he's draw the comics from the Sunday newspaper and anything else he could get his hands on, his brother Larry helped him perfect the art of drawing, he was literally a true Picasso if not BETTER, way better than Larry (lol) if you know you know. He then took on a love for poetry where he then put music to the words and became one of the best hip hop rappers of all time. Later He then met Desha Anderson who gave birth to his first child, Zayana Quintae in 1991. Later He met Lynea Jackson who then gave birth to his son Polite Jason in 1998. He was closely affiliated with the entire Wu tang clan where he got to show the world what his craft was and how good he was at it. Him and his ICEWATER team & Wu Tang brothers produced and album "POLLUTED WATERS" where he truly got to shine in his craft. He was a little guy with a voice you couldn't disguise. He was always kind and polite to everybody... Which is how he gained his Nick name "POLITE" on August 1,2023 God called him to enter a new LIFE where he was made whole... No more pain.
