Why this name?
Leonardo Divinci was one of the greatest artists who ever lived and art is my first love. Besides making beats I draw and paint as well (visit my portfolio site). To me music is just another medium to express myself. I'm an artist before anything else.
Do you play live?
Not right now, but when that happens it'll be under my rap alias D-Vex.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
The mp3 is one the greatest innovations ever to hit music, it's a beautiful thing. What's wrong with the industry is that instead of using the mp3 as a tool to distribute and promote their music, they demonize it and see it as threat. That's why when I start Omega Online Muzik for real, it will revolutionize the industry, embracing the net instead of rejecting it.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Naw. Major labels are shady. Ever see VH1 Behind the Music?
Your influences?
My biggest influence is Bone thugs n harmony. That's evident when I rap and that's what my beats are taylored to. But I'm also influenced by Nas and 2Pac, two of the greatest lyricists EVER and also by DMX. As far as beats go I like DJ-Uneek, Swizz Beats, The Neptunes, and Dr. Dre.
Favorite spot?
The bedroom, u can do anything there.
Equipment used:
I use different software to make my beats, mainly one called TU2 to generate my sounds and then I mix using Internet Audio Mix. I also use Acoustica for sound editing and occasionally I'll use a loop based program like Hip-Hop Ejay, but that's rare. I like my beats to be completely original.
Anything else...?
One statement I gotta make is hip-hop is headed entirely in the wrong direction. It's becoming hip-pop. From Nelly to Ja-Rule the industry is feeding us these bubble gum rappers and I'm sick of it! The only commercial acts that are any good right now are Eminem and 50 but all these other cats gotta go. So turn off ya radios and get down with the Online Revolution!!!!!!
