Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
I've rocked shows with some of the biggest names in hip hop(ie.,B.I.G., Wu Tang, Busta Rhymes, Mobb Deep, Tupac, and many more), and made noise at all of them. I love rocking live, that's what this is all about, an MC, a MIC, some BEATS and a CROWD to listen. That's what RHYMIN' was meant to be.
