You Know My Name... lets do this in chronological order: Geneva: started rappin at age 12 with my homies Saad and Asad AKA Thundercode and Killereye. Killereye retired due to the unprofessional and unconventional methods we used to record back then. Paris: met Red Tiger and started recording with him. (Life Is A Sad Song) which features Niko. Formed a group called Underground Renaissance, which was pointless due to the fact I left France. Pakistan: formed a group with my homies Reza, Bile and Badha called T.B.A (To Be Announced) and recorded Blinded and Cloud 9. Did some solo work with Reza. Met Nicole hence all da love songs, but hell, you write what you feel right? thats how you keep it real. Egypt: met A Rush, Poetic Justice and Dizzy Dane and joined their group called Madd Skillz Empire (MSE) and recorded an album called "The Return". Unfortunately, everyone decided to go their own ways. Worked with Poetic Justice and A Rush on solo terms. Performed a last show but we all knew it was ending soon. Performed at the AIS talent show with Elly and won first place. I always have time for the occasional collabo with RnB queen Amy. Now im just doing whatever I can, trying to expand my horizons by intertwining rap with rock, funk and blues. Song Suggestions: A Toast to the Wasted Time Cinderella Become Mind Games Something You Said ft. Reza Along With You Sandman Letting Go ft. Amy

Lyrics
Understanding the game it all starts off with a paper and pen u rhyme and try to sound like Dre or Eminem u try to write but u have no idea how much time it takes to find ur own ID u make a song and u think its really hot but when others listen to it they tell u its a flop ur off the beat and ur style is really weak long way to perfection so u break down for weeks u dont realize that skills dont come over night so u drop the pen, u givin up the fight u try to wonder why u sweat so much behind the mic whether the crowd intimidates u, or was is it stage fright was it cuz u chocked and they booed u off or someone better than battled u and chewed u off stage, rage, builds up inside so u go back home again and u start to write understanding this game, time to write i feel pain, but i gotta keep my head up (my head up) understanding this game, i got rules i can play, but i gotta keep my head up (my head up) here we are in chapter 2 now ur skillz improved now u start feelin like u got somethin to prove if a bitch step up u know u not gonna lose cuz confidence made u feel good in ur shoes and oh next day its da talent show shud i go perform or shud i stay at home? the confidence fades but comes back again u decide to sing the last gig at the end not a single sound as they call out ur name u get on stage and drop ur lines like rain suddenly, the crowd begins to respond ur gettin in a mood now so u bringin it on rhyme after rhyme u keep singin ur song minute after minute ur friends is cheerin u on u spit the last line and u leave the floor they call u back, they want an encore see there u go u saw for urself, things work out wen u feel good of urself now the next step is maintainin ur skill and keep improvin ur words but u need the will u gotta fight to win like u gotta fight to kill cuz in this game u gotta fight to spill words on a record to be heard by da world if u reach the top, its kool u know ur assured until then just keep ur feet on the ground try to avoid the 2faced people around u gotta be wise smart alert and real dont take shit from noone thats the real deal u fight for survival before ur arrival cuz the minute u in, u got urself a damn rival so hold on tight and grab on to the mic let loose and let it tell da story of ur life!
