Ruthless aka Wise
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
I was born on St.Croix,US Virgin Islands. Started rapping at the age of 14, and been deep in it eversince.I have just started recording as a solo artist recently, I am in a group called V.I.P. (Virgin Island Poetz) along side my bandmates Ripstah, B-Z, and Lively. I am also in a group called Da Topp Dawgz..which is a collaboration of V.I.P. and 3 kings which includes Ancient One, Phenom, and Smooth.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
I did a couple of shows, and lil school talent shows. One special moment was when I was performing with my boy Six and I was doing my verse and the crowd got so loud that I forgot what I was saying. I was literally saying blah blah blah and when the crowd settled down I remembered my verse again and nobody knew dat I messed up not even my boy Six...yeah Complex crowd gets real loud....BIG UP COMPLEX MASSIVE!!!
Your musical influences
Well I got alot of influences but I gotta say my older brother, he use to do reggae and I just decided to pick up a mic and tried to be like him. Honestly if it wasn't for him I wouldn't be rapping. Other influcences are Lloyd Banks, Tony Yayo, D12, Nas, Eminem, Proof, Outkast, Bone Thugs -n- Harmony,Obie Trice, Jay-Z, Biggie, 2Pac, Nappy Roots, Joe Budden, Kardinal Offishall, The Clipse, Foxy Brown, and ofcourse my group V.I.P.
