It's t.knibbs. Plain and simple. I'll make this short. Rap nowadays sucks. Now I've been listening to rap since I knew what a radio was, and in the past couple a years, its really goin downhill. I know I'm not the only one who noticed. So instead of listening to an alternative style of music, I've decided to try to change rap. YES...i said it, change rap. And i know, it's not gonna be easy...but neither was inventing the lightbulb...or going to the moon...or getting thru highschool. But just watch, cuz the plans in motion. As we speak. It's happening. So just be ready, and don't say I didn't warn you, cuz that'd be a lie. I'm comin...Holla @ ya boy!!!

Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Started spittin about 2 years ago, and it's just taken off from there. Did a few shows. Always lookin for more, so if you need...I got. Make most of my own beats, if not you know about it. I'm not a thief. Record all my own work in the basement (AKA- The Abyss). Using Pro-Tools LE right now, and makin beats with Live. That shits no joke.Workin on my debut album right now. But it tends to take a while when your doin everything yourself. Check out the myspace, if you get a chance...got some pics up there that aren't over here. If your in the jersey area, and lookin to record a demo, hit me up, we can work something out. Like my material and lookin for a quick 16?-hit me up. Need verses for a mixtape?-hit me up. Just wanna drop a compliment?-hit me up.
Holla @ ya boy!!
