Why this name?
I thought of it for a while until i put everything thing i am as a person and an artist is in real life. Im blunt, very straight forward, and tend to say alot thats on my mind. Im not the type of dude to beat around the bush. If I have a strong feeling about something Ill say it. Without any problems. I was 17 looking the dictionary and came across the definiton of Explicit. I was like yup thats me. Then I went by Xplicit only a couple years till dudes i kicked it with started calling me X. Or X to tha P. So i just stuck with it.
Do you play live?
Ive been on stage and done numerous shows through out Colorado. I love that feeling of everybody watching you do your thing on stage and feel it. Theres never a better feeling.
Back in 2002 My crew and I went to perform in Wyoming for some contest. It was in the center of a mall. Man! we tore the roof off that peice. After our performance, People came up and greeted us and asked for autographs and all that. We felt like celeberties that day. Was one of the best days of my life and my music career.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
I think its great. Gives artists such as myself a oppertunity to be heard through out the world. Thats all i really care. knowing someone in New York or California is bumping my music is just a great feeling in my soul.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
I definitly would take advantage of an oppertunity such as signing with someone major. Not for the money or the fame. Just to have a chance to work with big time artists and legends. Also a chance to perfom in front of bigger crowds.

Your influences?
First and formost my numer one influence is my baby boy. Hes everything I am to this day and has changed my life in many ways. My family has alot to do with my influences. My older brother who is a extremly huge part of why I am an artist. Hes the one that showed me the sounds of N.W.A, Dj Quick, Sir Mix Alot, Run DMC, and all the other old school rappers too many to name. But if it wasnt for my older brother I wouldnt be X. My little brother is another influence of todays music. Hes not only a beginning artist hes also my new hype man at shows. My wife is a big deal of what Im about as well. She belives in me and has my back 100%. And my fans and friends are also a big role of why i do what i do. This music thing is so big in the world that everyone is playing a role in this hip hop nation. Im just thankful for my fan base and who feels the material i put out. Last but not least is my old crew. Flawless.. If it werent for them X would just be a past. But im the present and the future.
Favorite spot?
Id have to say my hometown Greeley Colorado. I got mad love here
Equipment used:

Anything else...?
I just wanted to say Im thankful for the oppertunity to be able to put it down and have the talents to do what I do. Im not trying to be big time, Im not trying to have the houses and bling. I just want to be heard. Im thankful for every fan and every friend. Im also thankful for every dude hating on me. You know who you are. My love gos out to you. Thanks for taking the time to read and listen to what I leave. God Bless you all. Your boy XP
