First off, 412 stand-up. I've been rhymin since I was 11. Its a positive way to express my thoughts and emotions. Summer 2005, me and some of my boys formed a group called The KRUNK Movement or Da Movment. CD, ONUS IN STORES NOW!!! U can also purchase tracks online. $9.99 for album 99 cents/dl.
Why this name?
Its sorta like a split personality thing. When I'm spittin hardcore shit, it represents my rough energy, delivery and punchlines... my rhymes incite riots, haha. When I'm on some lyrical philosophical shit, its an acronym, Much Enlightened Lyricist, Educatin, With, Evidence.
Do you play live?
Schools, parties and other similar venues /w Da Movement.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
It can be a great tool to gain exposure. Not yet a primary source for industry success, but getting there. Look at Soulja Boy, (not saying he's a really good artist, but you've gotta respect em. The kid got signed by making songs and promoting himself through the web). Also, a number of producers have been discovered through the net. In many ways the web extends the talent pool, because more samples of artists' work is readily available than ever b4.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
If the conditions were right, sure. For now though, I'm focused on the college thing. I attand Hampton Univ., the real HU! Onyx VIII all day! Black Diamonds all day!
Band History:
The Center Of Life organization requested funding in the amount of $10,000 for operation portion of the music and health initiative called the Krunk Movement. The Krunk Movement is a music and health initiative that communicates a positive message about mental and physical health to middle & high school students 14-18 years of age. The grant proceeds will be used to engage a University of Pittsburgh GSPIA Intern to coordinate the initiative. In addition, proceeds will be used for consumable supplies and equipment in order to carry out the health initiative.
Your influences?
B.I.G., Pac, Big L, Nas , Jay-Z, Lupe Fiasco, Big Daddy Kane, J.R. Writer, Weezy, Royce Da 5'9
Favorite spot?
Pittsburgh, PA. The home of Heinz Products esp. ketchup, haha. Home of The Steelers (never forget the Steel Curtain), Dan Marino (the greatest quarterback in NFL history bar none), August Wilson, Teenie Harris, Andy Warhol and many more...
Equipment used:
Lexicon Omega Mixer, MXL V63M, Cubase LE
Anything else...?
Cop Onus or various tracks on iTunes, CD Baby or digistation (Realer Than You Think is a must have. Racism and Shang Tu Sung and the Anthemn are also good jams.)
