At a young age i started listenin 2 rap(2pac) and i really never dreamed of doin music or even meetin my most favorite artists.Now 4 years later ive learned alot of sh*** 4rm the ppl that already been wher im at, im slowly gettin the hang of bein known in my town.I was givin the title of "freestyle king" in my town, and when i realized ppl were goin around the lock playin songs i had recorded on sum cheap ass equipment for fun, i started 2 take is seriously.I bless god that i have the talent 2 rap, and i thank all the homeboys 4rm my old hood that always stood behind me durin my hardest of times and gave me that lil push i needed.I hope 2 touch alot of ppl thru what i have 2 say, i only speak on what ive seen 4rm both my own eyes, so theres no fake energy glowin off my person. If you are readin this right now, i appreciate the love and support, i owe you(the fans) all the love and acknowledgement you deserve, witout you 2 listen 2 my music, i am juss a man speakin 2 4 walls and hearin only what i feel inside, this A-One Signin Out
Why this name?
The homeboys started callin me belly when i first started freestylin, after gainin a small fan base, i met sumone at a party that said there were rumors goin around of me sayin "i bust yayo", the the homeboys started callin me A-Yo, i finally said f*** it, if they wanna beileve sum bullshit like that, i might aswell make the best of it and make it seem like im doin the sh*** coke fiends dream of, now stands b4 you "A-One" lol
Do you play live?
I play live, usually tournaments and conventions, but i havent been on my toes lately, i been busy pushin an album, but i will be performin at Borders in Turlock Within a few weeks, come check out me and the fello EPT soldiers do our thang on stage
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
For me personally, it helps get my music 2 places i never dreamed of. I like knowin i got fans in diffrent states and now even diffrent countrys, its a trips, Natural High lol
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
At this point yes, i realize how hard it actually is 2 run a label, i aint lookin 2 blow up and kick down MTVs doors, but i would like 2 have a established name in Cali
