RICK.I.E

Hi, My name is Rick.i. E am a rapper/writer/producer of my own music thats why sometimes it takes me some time to download music on sound click, What i think i need to do is to spend more time on my lyrics because i think i give positive or negatives vibes but whats most important i believe is the music for the people. Am 24 years old and some rapper dont become known until they are at least 28 years old, i been writing lyrics since i was in high school for some 8 years. But am going to continue to get better until i get to the level that i think people would like, am not yet at a professional level although i treat myself like a professional and i try to behave and write professionally. Althought in reality am just a newbie, i think for my next album, am going to focus more on making sure that all my tracks are perfect, my beats, tempo and everything before i even begin to write because i would like to write an album that people would respond and listen to. My biggest weakness is that i speak alot about the troubles in our society and people already know that, maybe i should write lyrics about positive escapes but for right now, am just enjoing the experience of being a writer even though i might only have one fan in the whole world at this point, i will keep pushing myself both lyrically, beat, tempo, pacing, timing and volume control and rapping breathing speaking, and using a more defined vocabulary if its more intellectual words or not. I need ya support to give me feedback on what am doing wrong so i can improve from my mistakes and make the next album 500 times better than my last. Although everyone i meet tell me that each of my albums is better than the next, i guess i have to be persistant with it and determined to see myself at the level which will cause people to be like i need that album or i want to hear what RICKi E has to say. Till later peace out.

I started this Rap group back in 2008, i joined the Marine corps in dec 2007 and i decided that i would like to dedicate a good portion of my off time to pursuing the music industry i believe that i still have a lot to learn about marketing strategy distribution, consumers but am learning it at the pace that when i do hit the right combinations it will be a lasting thing not just a fade so am enjoying reaching my goals in the process to become successful.

I would like to play like up to this point i have never played live, i have performed but not rap or singing many people that know me dont even know that i can spit or write lyrics at first it started out as a hobby afterwards it became kinda more something i wanted to do to express myself so i always like it.

My music influences no lie probably KISS, The Beatles, Michel Jackson, JAY-Z, Eminem, DMX, Young Money, My CHemical romance, Linkin Park and Greenday the black eye peases all alternative music, i guess i also listen to alot of reggae like daddy yankee, don omar, and tego calderon. But i also like listening to the smaller unkown groups that are just making poetry and struggle for it.

I use the drums, i also use garage band for the basic beats, i have this microphone that does some kewl effects but i only use it sometimes because its a major distraction from what am trying to-do.
