Sooner or Later Entertainment, would like to proudly present "SKI MASK." Hailing out Philadelphia, PA, SKI MASK is the first artist out of the S.O.L. Entertainment line-up. Having practiced his craft for the last 8 yrs, SKI MASK is prepared to finally make his mark on the music industry. With the release of his sampler "They Gon' Hate Regardless," SKI MASK will put his stamp on the industry, while staying true to his own personal brand of hip-hop.
Why this name?
My name came from the way that my personality is. I'm a real private person. During most of the day, I "mask" the way that I feel. Rap is the way I let my true feelings out. Get stuff off my chest.
Do you play live?
No I don't play live, just with equipment.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
The internet has changed hip-hop tremendously. It's a new medium that has both positive and negative effects. It's a great way for new artists to get their music out there to the public, but also, it is abused by listeners who download new music and artists don't get the money or credit for it.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
If given the opportunity to sign with a major label, I would gladly look into the opportunity and make the best decision possible for myself. To make a long answer short, "YES."
Your influences?
As an MC, Jay-Z, of course. Nas...Big Daddy Kane especially, Treach of Naughty by Nature. Busta Rhymes and Eminem. Production wise...The Neptunes, Timbaland, Kanye West, Just Blaze.
Favorite spot?
My favorite place is Philly. That's where it's at! I grew up there. That's my hometown. Philly is up and coming with new artists, Beanie Sigel, Musiq just to name a few. It's such a real feeling there. If you wack, Philly will definitely let you know. That's what I love about it.
Equipment used:
I use the MPC 2000xl, ASR-X, Ensoniq EPS, SP-1200 sometimes for the swing timing, and Cool Edit Pro just to name a few.
Anything else...?
The production company that I am currently working with is Sooner Or Later Entertainment. S.O.L. is a collection of some the most innovative and creative minds that I know. Our members possess degrees from various universities, in disciplines ranging from communication to marketing. As a whole we are a dynamic group of eager entreprenuers seeking to put our lasting stamp on the entertainment industry. We have a line-up of creative team members ranging from producers, songwriters, musicians, singers, MC's, as well as financial advisors and marketing consultants. Our approach to success in the industry is by simply applying the knowledge we've gained to a small scale and eventually make major waves. Though, we are not focused on becoming a label, we are poised to handle many of the responsibilities of one. We are focused on supplying the music industry with many of our talents from orignal music production (original beats, production, song writing, etc.), to innovative urban marketing inniatives (marketing, public relations, etc.).

I would like to say thanks for listening to one of many of the selections of music I plan to release to the world. Enjoy, your journey into the world of "SKI MASK" has now begun. Stay tuned for many updates to come.

Thanks, God Bless!
