Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Immortal Suspect 97-2001
(Jade Klaw, Lui Delgado, Desperado (now TopNotch Des), BlakDrag)
I then focused on solo projects with production from FlawBeatz (Flawless) and eventually formed ...
SG (Str8 Gutta)
(Force, Veteran, K-Stizzy, BlakDrag)
This led to ...
Wildlife Records
(SG, GodSpeed and Desperado (FirstBlood), Solo)
Now, I mostly work with longtime fellow mc TopNotch Des. We've completely several projects together and continue to expand. I've also focused heavily on solo projects in the recent years. This include projects with DJ Mercury. I continue to get production from many beatmakers including Flawless, Coach, Prince G, Lonely Skies and etc....
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
Randomly...by request. I have performed and several cities and enjoy it. I enjoy the studio more though to tell the truth. A memorable performance was in Vienna, VA with Defakto and Nerg Ferguson (then Stress The Lyricist). Crowd was hype and crazy....
Your musical influences
Helter Skelter, Tupac Shakur, Styles P, Jay-Z, Notorious B.I.G., Joe Budden, Michael Jackson, Chester Moore to name a few. In addition, some local artist from around the way that feel the same way I do.
What equipment do you use?
Ancient Secret.... I won't tell. But I like that real underground sound. I stopped upgrading when Hip Hop started changing for the worse. I'm a dinasour.
