welcome to the future
Gurleyen started rapping back in 2005, has since than made a dramatic improvement in not only his writing ability, but his flow, and vocals. "I took alot of time to write and prepare tracks, i just kept doing it, i figured, the more i do, the better i'll get". He could not of been more right, he has done collaborations with many Us Artist and a few aussie artists such as damman to name one. Has been interviewed by Damman him self on his radio show and also by a dude in Brisbane. He had a great opportunity to be a professional basketball player untill november 5th 2007 when he lost his eye playing the game he loved. "No regrets, i don't let the past hold me down, you just gotta go with it, it's only another hurdle i gots to leap and my legs are just warming up''. Look out for this striving mc to blow up soon, his is the future, his just been hiding.
