A few blocks from Howard University, in a dorm-like apartment, with empty Hennessey bottles, posters of Tupac, Bob Marley, and somewhat artistic images of half naked women, a self-described positive gangsta creates intricate works of art. Drawings of gothic visions, socially conscious poems, and music with vivid imagery are born in this chamber. XP is a mere 22 years, but his songs dive into a maturity even he doesn't always understand. Take a ride down the streets of DC and listen to the lives of this ghetto poet.
A live show is where I can really vibe with a crowd and release tons of energy.
Nas, OutKast, Bob Marley, Funkadelic, and Earth, Wind & Fire
