PURE FIYA
PURE FIYA! ™
The fact that Pure Fiya!™ has a presence is undeniable. From his piercing jade eyes to his locs he conjures up visions of a mighty lion . . . with a roar thats equally intimidating and impressive. FIYAs!™ commanding voice enables him to alternate between pure street Hip-Hop and deep poetic philosophy in a single breath. Theres an aura around him that makes you want to stop and take notice.
Born in Washington, D.C., submerged in the Go-Go culture of his region, he was separated from the birth of Hip-Hop. But the day it was revealed to him, it was the spark that ignited the FIYA!™ . Self-trained in verbal combat he observed the masters of his time and in a short span, he too became a master of his craft. And as time progressed he eventually became a self-contained unit by producing his own music.
The world being what it is, FIYA!™ has met his share of trials, tribulations and unexpected twist and turns, but he continues to press on. Now with the hunger of a million starving wolves and the focus of a shaolin monk, FIYA!™ is prepared to take his rightful place in history.
