This is SPEX.Welcome to my page.Here you will find nothing but raw redwood city,california hip hop music.If you're bored of the shoot em up style and have had enough crunk juice in your system,you've came to the right place.

My dad got me started mixing and scratching when he got a set of tables around 1988.I was around 12 years old at the time.In 1991,I wrote my first rhyme and began rapping on other peoples beats.Around 1994,I went over to this guy Nacho's house down the street abit form where I lived.He had a mixer/sampler and he showed me how to use it.I was hooked!My pops got me a 4-track and a sampler and the saga began.Since then,I've released over 10 albums(cassettes,cds,vinyl,etc.)with various artist from my area.

I definetly do shows.I've performed all around the bay area and in different spots around california.I've also been to canada,texas,nevada,washington,pretty much anywhere that will have me.The thing I like about performing is that you can give the crowd a certain type of energy that is difficult to translate onto a recording.When the audience returns the favor,that's the best of all.

As far as types of music:jazz,funk,classic soul,60's acid rock,anything you can feel when you listen to it.As far as rappers go:Rakim,Krs-one,Del,Too Short,Ice Cube,Juice Crew,too many to name.As far as producers:Rza,Premier,Large Professor,Marly Marl,Khayree,Too Short,on and on.

MPC 2000xl...pen,pad,a turntable,mixer and a mic.

Shout to the whole crew past and present:Ari Rundown,Jster,Art Kanobe(rip),Marcus R,Rolex,Bias One,Insomniac,Raggedy Andy,Spiderman(rip),Fat Sack,El Fatto,Smokes a lot & Rez(ganja T),Bucc Rogerz,Odnet,Ice da Repo Man,Emperor Pengiun,and all the SubLevel Epidemic family!
