MC Kase
I make everything by myself, and I like it that way. I used to be in a rap group. That was fun, but I needed to do my own thing. I think I've got some beats and lyrical content that you do not normally here.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Rap group PSU/UOK? 1992-2001
Solo 2001-Present
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
I am a DJ too, so yeah, but I haven't performed really as a rapper. I would do it for money.
Your musical influences
I grew up as a young skater on punk and gangster.. NWA, Decendents got me going back in 3rd/4th grade and soon I discovered the east coast stuff, which really flipped my lid. Eric B and Rakim, BDP, Public Enemy helped me have a curiosity for social commentary. NWA, Too Short, Rodney O and Joe Cooly, Spice 1, Compton's Most Wanted, Dre Dog, C Bo and Mac Dre and others (I could list Bay Area oldskoolers ALL day) helped cultivate my casual disregard for everything.
I can be lucent and socially aware at times, or off the fucking deepend completely.
What equipment do you use?
Computer loaded w/ all softwares available. 2 Technic 1200 MK3's w/ Pioneer DJM 707... Sen mic w/ glass tube amp, pantyhose covered doughnut etc.
Anything else?
Want a track or a rap? Hit me up. I'm not trying to make money off of rap, I have everything I want already. I just love making tunes.
