SINIK
Started writing songs at age 12. Mostly silly parodies to real songs like Wild Thing by Tone Loc. Then I just learned to write my own. Started writing full original raps and recording around 1996 or so. Didn't actually learn to record myself and start laying down alot of tracks until around 2004. A little while after that I hooked up with another local San Antonio rapper named Discript and we recorded and did some shows. Was mostly a hobby for me. Never tried hard to blow up really. I knew I was the best rapper in San Antonio and that was enough for me.
