This is L.C. Santiago, I perform under the rap name Lystic to make it easier for people to differentiate between my works (I am also a unpublished Author). I am a fan of artist like Mos Def, Talib Kweli, Serious Nas and Tupac, Mike Shinoda, S.O.B. and basically serious hip-hop. My music reflects that I think. I also enjoy other types of hip-hop and almost any other genre of music. Right now, as a artist, I am working on music that will probably never make it to the mainstream but I think the music is important and the topics I touch on most occasions need to be discussed. Maybe I can spark a though in your mind that could change the world, maybe not, but we will see.
Why this name?
It was given to me by a friend when we tried to make a rap group, I'm solo now and also work with Juan G. and The Prophecy
Do you play live?
I have plans to tour a Christian circuit but that is still int he works.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
It will make people try harder in the future, when the industry can't take the losses anymore, new artist will be looked for.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Possibly, depends on many thing, but most likely in my life time i will never get the chance, and I'm ok with that. the music is what matters.
Band History:
I started writing around 1999 and I consider myself more of a writer then a performer but I practice a lot and try to make the best music I can, I would like to write for other artist if I can. I worked with Juan G. and plan on working with him on and off forever and I also work with The Prophecy and hope to do more music with him. I am doing solo music for a free mixtape and plan on making a solo Inspiration album
