Dresta is one of the most popular and richest Musician who was born on April 18, 1971 in Compton, Compton, United States. Andre DeSean Wicker (born April 18, 1971), better known by his stage name Dresta, is an American rapper. He is best known for collaborating with Eazy-E on the 1993 single “Real Muthaphuckkin G’s”.

On January 14, 1994, Tyrone Thomas (also known as Tony Bogard), Andre Wicker and Rodney Compton were involved in a gang confrontation in Imperial Courts housing projects. Thomas and Compton were former PeeJay Watts Crips and Thomas had helped to organize a truce between Crips and Bloods in Watts, Los Angeles in 1992.

He is the older brother of rapper B.G. Knocc Out, who is also featured on the song. Together, they released their only studio album Real Brothas, in August 1995, which peaked at #128 on the Billboard 200. In 1996, the album Murder Squad Nationwide was released including Dresta and his brother B.G. Knocc Out along with other West Coast rap artists at the time.

After B.G. Knocc Out’s incarceration in 1998, Dresta worked with Death Row Records and appeared on two tracks from Death Row’s Too Gangsta for Radio compilation, but never actually signed to the record label.

Thomas and Wicker were subsequently hospitalized in Martin Luther King, Jr. Multi-Service Ambulatory Care Center, where Thomas was pronounced dead. Wicker was in critical condition while arriving to the hospital, but received a surgery for a gunshot to his left arm and was released the same week. Compton was wounded in the arm and treated at St. Francis Medical Center in Lynwood. He was later charged with the murder of Thomas, but was released from jail after pleading no contest to one count of voluntary manslaughter on May 31,

Wicker was sentenced to one year probation under terms of a plea bargain.

While Dresta was serving his five-year sentence, he started writing lyrics and rapping, gaining some notoriety. Within months of Dresta’s release, he and B.G. Knocc Out signed to Eazy-E’s Ruthless Records and made their debut on Eazy’s 1993 multi-platinum EP It’s On (Dr. Dre) 187 Killa on the single “Real Muthaphuckkin G’s” (which was censored to “Real Compton City G’s” in order to garner MTV and radio airplay). The song itself was a response to Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg’s various ‘diss’ records towards Eazy-E on Dr. Dre’s debut album, The Chronic.

In 1995, Dresta and B.G. Knocc Out released their debut studio album Real Brothas, which remains their only album to date. At the end of the same year, they made three guest appearances in Eazy-E’s posthumous album Str8 off tha Streetz of Muthaphukkin Compton.
