I'm classified on this page as general rap. It's a good classification, because I like to try my hand at all types. However, you'll also find actual songs on here, as well, in the near future. My band consists of one person. Me. Though I must give props to my LORD, JESUS CHRIST, for the gift that I have. It was HE who has saved my life time after time. It is thanks to HIM that I am here today. So, in that respect, there are actually four members of my band. Myself, and the TRINITY.

Have you performed in front of an audience?
Closest thing to live, so far, was opening for a couple local shows; a few freestyle comps; and some "open mic" stuff. But I love the music!
Your musical influences
I like DMX. You can hear that influence in a lot of my music. I've also been nfluenced by Run-DMC. That's why my flow tends more towards the "old skool" style. Some other influences: Papa Roach, KayCi and JoJo, P.O.D., TuPac, B.I.G., Eminem, Bone Thugs N Harmony, Poison, Limp Bizkit, I.C.P., Aaliyah, Sting, City High, Metallica, Shania Twain, Bon Jovi, Van Hallen, SEAL, R Kelly, Mo Thugs, Creed, etc. the list goes on! Christian artists who have also influenced my style include: Carmen, Stven Curtis Chapman, DC Talk, P.O.D.(bet you didn't know that, did ya?), Amy Grant, Micheal W Smith, MC Dash, OGGz, A1 Swift, White Heart, Magellian, King's X, Skillet, Newsboys, Mortification, CMC's, again, the list goes on.
What equipment do you use?
I have some techno beats, but that doesn't qualify me as a techno artist. However, the thing I use most is my PC.
Anything else?
I would like to point out that most of tha music ya'll hear on this page is unfinished... It has yet ta be mastered, filtered, balanced, etc... Sooo, enjoy my rough drafts!-----R.E.T.S.
