ATTIC RECORDZ bi***!
Why this name?
In the beginning, I was freestyling for the fun of it at the lunch table in high school. I had no stage name so I was just going as "Ant." A few months later my big sister heard me rapping one day and she was like "I didn't know you rapped?" I was like "yea a little something like that." She said "cool I'm about to see you in concert soon right? What's your stage name Mr. Alexander? Alex? A-lex?" I was like yeah, "A-lex" it was on from then.
Do you play live?
Yea. Performed in Florida, CT mainly. Performing is cool, always like to see the reaction of the crowd after your first three words. You can tell if they feelin you or not. I remember I won an open mic contest and was invited to a lyricist lounge show. It was crazy.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
Internet changes the Industry because it isso easy to go Independent now. Start a label, make your music, Sell online, you good.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Naw, they be raping niggaz!
Your influences?
Fu- Schnickens and Tribe Called Quest were my first loves as far as Hip-Hop music. WHen I heard Wu-Tang for the first time, that made me want to get into this sh*** heavy.
