Band/artist history

I started Freestyling for fun back in 98, when I was 11. I never really did it around any one accept my band-mate until about twenty oh two. (The Mid-Bush years) When I was hanging out with some kids around my neighborhood who all laughed at the prospect of A "White boy" freestyling. So I drowned their laughs forthwith with the waves of my flow putting it all in prospective. So now I've been doing it pretty much where ever I feel like.
I started to write songs about 6 years ago but I mainly spend my music time freestyling and mixing. It wasn't until recently That I've been Writing Song after song Witch most if not all of my songs have been written in 2 hours or less.(That's time actually at the keyboard)
Most of the better ones have been written in as little as 20 to 40 minutes in entirety at one sitting. (Refer to "I'm Dope")  over all I'd say, "I'm not done,I'm not done by a Longshot."

Have you performed in front of an audience?

Whenever I can. Wherever it really doesn't matter to me. Yes.yeah once at the country club in Canyon lake Texas I preformed a freestyle on "Stage" in front of 50+ middle aged White folk. It absolutely erupted as soon as I finished. Free beer a runaway golfcart and being confronted for using the womens restroom... By a woman.Fun night.

Your musical influences

It started when I was 8 or 9, with Al Yankovic  believe it or not. I remember hearing this song "Amish paradise" And I thought to myself... "Hmmm... He can make an entire song up around the basics of an existing song and still make a living doing it, Why can't I make original music?" The answer of course  is I can... and have and will continue to do so.

What equipment do you use?

Olympus brand Digital voice recorder,  Acoustica MP3 Audio mixer, LK-90Smart media Casio Keyboard, Honer Harmonica(Key of C), and My Big ass Brain.

Anything else?

do not worry about my politics, the core message is love yourself enough to love others and laugh at every chance. Learn your own way, be your own man.
