Band/artist history

I've been writing rhymes for fun since I was about 12 or so; started taking writing and spittin altogether more seriously at around 14 or 15.

Have you performed in front of an audience?

I haven't really had too many booked 'shows' but I've had some chances to get out and do my thing in the Burlington underground scene. Truth be told, I'm more of a lay-low cat who would rather write than perform. You mighta seen me around town though... When I'm wasted I usually get up and rap somewhere, be it downtown or bogartin the mic at your favorite emcees' shows, lol.

What equipment do you use?
