Can't Let Go (Rough) - Featuring Ron Verbal Can't Let Go (Rough) - Featuring Ron Verbal
Verbal and I did this joint the same night as the one under it. Angelo hooked us up again with the beat, and Amato hooked us up again with the engineering. Although it's very rough, the emotion is there.
Untitled (Rough) - Featuring Ron Verbal Untitled (Rough) - Featuring Ron Verbal
Verbal and I agreed to do an album together, and after Angelo played us this beat, we knew this was the first joint we had to do. It's real rough right now, but will be completed soon.

I'm just speakin my mind man...Band/artist history
I started writing rhymes out of boredom one day in 7th grade math class. Somehow, I ended up writing bars every day until I graduated high school. After graduating high school, I kinda lost interest and did my own thing for a while. Around 2002, myself and a few friends started freestyling just for fun, and I ended up doing that every chance I got. Then one day, I decided to enter a battle down at Rutgers, and I ended up having to battle (and destroying) this dude Chivy, who ended up winning 7 straight weeks on Freestyle Friday on BET's 106 and Park. After that motivation, I moved on and won battles in NYC, DC, PA, Montclair State, and Seton Hall. As time passed, I jotted down a few bars here and there, but never really started writing until I got down with a collective of poets, dj's, mc's, and other artists known as Guerrilla::Words. Aside from hosting a monthly Open Mic in NYC, Guerrilla has provided support to artists such as myself in numerous other ways. Through G::W, I have been blessed with the opportunity to share the stage with the likes of Immortal Technique, Pack FM, Tonedeff, Substantial, Thought Breakers, Louis Logic, Poison Pen, Pumpkinhead, Flo-Brown, L.I.F.E.Long, and Percee-P. As Guerrilla::Words continues to expand from humble beginnings, I am simultaneously growing with the movement. The mission is simple: to enlighten the masses by showing that there's more to art and hip hop than what's on television and what's on the radio.Have you performed in front of an audience?I've performed up and down the east coast.

I don't waste my time with internet MC's and text MC's. Anyone can write a decent battle rap if you give them a pen, paper, and some time. If you got somethin to say to me, bring it to real life, OFF THE DOME. If you talk shit but can't freestyle, don't even try to talk to me. If you talk like you're doin big things but nobody knows you, dont' talk to me. If you claim to be nice with it or claim to be the sickest around, but yet haven't proved nothing and haven't spit for anyone except your boys, don't waste my time, just give up your dream. Don't get me wrong, I'm not claiming to be sick with it, nor am I claiming to be celebrity status. All I'm saying is that I've got a lot of other things to do and projects to work on, so I don't have time to waste on dreamers. Don't mistake my bluntness for conceit, I know I ain't big or blown up (nor do will I be anytime soon), and I know I have my flaws as well.Contact
