A.P. The Apostle was born and raised in Dallas, TX (Plesant Grove). Has always had a knack for Hip Hop music beginning with his love for the Wu-Tang Clan, Nas, Rakim, Kool G Rap, Gangsta Pat, Scarface, Spice 1, Master P and many more... A.P.'s lyrical content is different from many other southern artists and this is a characteristic that separates him from from typical Southern Hip Hop Artists. A.P. makes you put your thinking cap on but in reality it's really simple if you think about it. One Def Jam Records A&R Representative stated "A.P. bring the streets and church together and makes it gangster". A.P. is a star in the making
