I make alternative and experimental hip-hop music. Some of it is just gritty, some old school sounding. It's really all over the place. These instrumentals are for sale.
Why this name?
The name comes from Bryce Courtenay's novel "The Power of One".
Do you play live?
Occasionally I will rip my own beats in Baltimore in places like the Depot, the Talking Head, the Sidebar, and the Ottobar. I do rather enjoy it.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
