Lee Da Rhymin' Master
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
I wrote my first songs while in the 5th grade, so in about 1996 or so...For a while I was in a semi-group with another guy who's no longer in the business...After a while, I joined up with a few other emcees and together we formed M4 (Money Makin' Master Minds...A line from a song I had previously wrote). Within a few months we disbanded and I decided to fly solo...After a few attempts at album writing, I'm finally in the postion of having plenty of material I'm satisfied with enough to share with the public...
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
Of course I play live...What real Hip Hopper doesn't? Actually, I think my music is a better experience live. There's so much more energy you can get from a crowd than in the studio...
