Bronx, New York USA Contact

A more honest and creative approach toward musical expression in the form of Hip-Hop. Pure and natural rhymes for the mind to enjoy. No extra artificial ingredients that just take away from the purpose. A listener should be able to benefit from what they hear. Music should not be detrimental.

Biography

I have been rhyming now since 1992. I've always supported creative stylistic rhyme more than egotistic rap. Hip-Hop is my culture first, and also one of my many talents and dearest trades. I am on the ultimate crusade to end all gimmick formulated fakeness within the genre. There is always going to be something better for the people to enjoy. It does not have to stop at guns jewels and drug raps. Verbal skill and unique stylistic linguistic whims equal the true essence of an MC.

Discography

I have not had any previous releases. I have had some opportunities to show my skill on stage and received great responses from many audiences. I have been producing and recording now for about fifteen years. I've done most of my work out of love and stern dedication to creating new and better Hip-Hop that will thus add on to the now existent foms, and hopefully even fill in some gaps and voids at the same time. There is a need for something more better that can act as somewhat of a cure for the disease within the genre of rap. Most of my discography has been based on the renewal of the art it's self.

Setlist

I have many songs that I love to perform. I can't imagine one that I would not love to perform. I would set up my track list as such. I would probably open with something to get everyone's attention like my "So Natural" track. I would then go into a vertical lift with "Catch 22" to shine some light on the situation. I guess my next step would be to keep everyone mentally there by dropping my "Focus" track to give some raw and compassionate inspiration to the people and then take'em back to the party with my "Get It On" track. I would then get all serious and stuff and drop the "Special Forces" bomb on the place. I have more than a few more tracks as well that would add up to about 10 or more songs for an average gig. In the presence of a greater opportunity I can perform at least 15 songs within an hour long set. I also have a freestyle interlude show that last for about 10 minutes that is awesome to witness. I usually do that in between every other four three tracks while my DJ scratches. I love to communicate with the crowd as well throughout my show. (Very Sincere)
