Im a true artist, ive been into music since I was a toddler, got a keyboard at age 5 and never stopped playing, found out in high school that I had a gift to write, was intrigued by sugar hill, I was converted by: grand master flash and the furious five: song: THE MESSAGE I was hooked. I love Funk & HARD ROCK, deadly combination, as a musician and lyricist. cover the spectrum as to subject matter, gangsta , ballad, horror , politics, militant black , sex, dance ive written #1085 songs to date, numbered dated, & categorized by genre. look to leave folks with a message you can feel, my trademark very rare to here me recite the same rhyme twice , never leave the subject matter of the particular song for rhyming sake, and I never not rhyme. smile
Band/artist history
Wrote my first rap in prison, on a bet, guy said I couldnt do it, I said I could, back in 1985, I never stopped writing from there it was a cool way to past the time and escape, ive worked with basicly the same musicians my whole carreer, namely myself, my boy troy temple, and my boy tim reed, there have been others but troy is my core affiliate when it comes to music, i dont say beat, because what he produces goes way beyond the category of beat, my man makes the coldest funk few have yet to here but that is soon to change very soon. my styles unique some love it some hate it, thats art, I just keep puttin out what I feel is Good to my soul.
Have you performed in front of an audience?
Yes, I love it, as a rapper I believe the proof is in the pudding, I love to watch the crowed transform, and get that look and feel and that knowing nod when you really start kickin ass doin something unique with feeling, the henry j kaiser was the biggest venue ive ever rapped at, located in oakland calif next to the collisium, I new Things were gonna go up from there, no looking back!

Anything else?
I believe all music has an audience , some small some huge, here is when the fuse is lit for me to see how big my bang really is, but know im a true artist and if nobody liked my cuts its cool, I really do love when I make a song, and im humbled and flattered when im allowed to perform, and most pleased when I can write something to impart hope or knowledge to anyone breathing. peace
