Fly Ry
My name is Ryan Johnson a.k.a. Fly Ry a.k.a. Dj Mind Time Machine. I'm from Houston, Went to school at Texas Tech, and I recently moved to Fort Worth, Texas. I started experimenting with rapping and producing beats about 6 months ago. I have a lot of songs and smooth lines I still need to lay down on wax, but I'm making the beats as I go so that is the one thing that is slowing me down a little bit. I learn more everytime I sit down and I think before long I am going to be putting out some real profreshional sounds.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Every day I'm Hustlin.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
I'm more interested in perfecting my art first, but I could throw down at any moment. Probably beginning of '09 I'll have enough quality that I could put on a good show. I also freestyle at times. 1 out of 8 times I wreck really hard.
