Born and raised on the Eastside of Indianapolis, Indiana (USA), Pariah came up from a very diverse upbringing and learned the values of life through his family, mainly his mother, and music. He grew a natural interest in playing the drums by watching his oldest brother who self taught him how to play at the age of 6. Not known of his own ability to write rhymes, he went through many hard times and tribulations that made him mature at a young age. Then after a sudden tragic event that occurred between him and a very close friend at the age of 15, he decided not to talk about his emotions and thoughts, but rather write them down through poetry. His mother, teachers and students realize that he possessed the ability to capture ones attention with the words that he wrote. He decided to name himself Pariah after learning its meaning in Etymology class. It was only then that, as he continued to write, he had friends that heard him speak the words that he wrote and realized the rhythm and power behind his speech. He decided to seek instrumentals and say his poetry over beats./ Bashiri Asad has been on the local music scene for only a short while and In this time, his gift has touched the lives of many.
