Had a bunch of total crap names, and this one fits cuz it pertains to mentally unstable rhymes.

When I am confident it will happen.

The real creative artists are making it big with little or no money on the internet, and that means us home musicians can get a piece of the pie too....that is a good thing to me. (though I prefer cake)

If I could improve my family's life so they dont ever have to work again....and so I can rap for a living....and eventually invest all my money on stuff other than rap, yeah...but I'm not gonna let idiots rip me off, I'd get me a REAL GOOD agent first, and make sure he's not a crook as well.

Been messing with raps on, and off since about 1998. Just some thing I do every once in a while to cope with stressful times.

I barely listen to any one but me, but if Im partying out------> Necro, Ill BIll, Goretex...Metallica...Deftones...Eminem (old CD's)..DZK FOR DAMN SURE...Slipknot...TWIZTID AND ICP.....THREE SIX MAFIA...Tupac...Esham....Natas...Bone n Thugs...Snoop Dogg (old Cd's)..Blaze ya Dead Homie, Soulfy, Necro, Dayton Family, Nirvana, Brotha Lynch.....I got more, but Im tired of typing.

That's what I listen to, but when it comes to influence I get 94 % of it from my own life, the sick sh*** is merely immitating horror movies I grew up watching as a kid, but turning it in to music.
