SoundClick artist: Mic Doja - I make all the beats and write all the lyrics. I represent real music

The new era in Hip Hop is here and Mic Doja is here to lead the way. Since 1993 I’ve been involved in music production. Music in Hip Hop now is dead. The music culture has been commercialized and exploited. My music is here to bring REAL music back to the Hip Hop culture. My music speaks of real issues dealt with by real people. Not everyone in Hip Hop is a D-boy, or a gangsta, or even baller. My music is not about drugs, killing, or any other negative aspect currently portrayed in Hip Hop music. Hip Hop is about reaching out with good music, bringing unity, and becoming empowered. And that’s what I’m here to bring to Hip Hop.
Some of my musical influences are; Tupac, Nas, Mos Def, Outkast, E-40, and Kanye West to name a few. The goal of my music is for you the fan, listener, and even critic to hear good, positive, fun Hip Hop music that’s made by a real artist for real people. For over 15 years I've been involed in music here on the west coast. The time for the west to come up is now.

Why this name?

My name was given to me by my hood and has evolved into Mic Doja, because Doja is the best of the best and that best descibes me on a mic.

Do you play live?

Local clubs, venues, parties, you name it

How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?

Internet and the Mp3 have revoutionized the music industry greatly by making it more artist friendly in getting our music to the rest of the world.

Would you sign a record contract with a major label?

Too be honest I'm not sure if I would or not. It would mainly depend on the label and the specifics of the contract. Whether I signed or not I would be happy to have the opportunity offered

Band History:

There's really not too much to say. I started music in 1993. First performance was in 1997 for audience of 200. Stopped performing until later in 2004. I have recently started the recording of my anticipated debut album, "The Rise".

Your influences?

I love Tupac, E-40, Too Short, and other great west coast artists as well as a lot of east coast artists like Jay-Z, Lil' Wayne, T.I. etc.. I'm not for all the negative association to hip hop fro some of these artists but I still like'em.

Favorite spot?

The Bay Area

Equipment used:

My computer, magix music software, adn occasionally a keyboard.
