bio
Self Made : it's not a name, it's a way of life.
We made ourselves.
The trifecta : The Hustler, The Hype Man, and The C.E.O.
Self Made consists of three artists.
The Hustler
Skutta P
Born Joseph Alan Harper, April 28th, 1983 in Canton, OH.
Regardless of the record, Skutta P will find a way to incorporate his hustler lifestyle into the music. He does whatever it takes to put food on the plate and smoke in the air.
When you hear the depth of Skutta's voice, it grabs your attention. He bounces all over records with a versatile flow, and metaphors that leave the listener contemplating life.
The Hype Man
Hype
Born Lieford Dale Robertson, December 6th, 1981 in Clinton, OK.
When you go to a Self Made show, Hype draws your attention with a fierce energy! He is a blur of constant motion across the stage, and that intensity transfers directly onto the records! Hype comes to every record with a deeply insightful point of view, and metaphors and punchlines that make the listener hit "rewind".
The C.E.O.
Nox
Born Christopher Leonard Robertson, April 10th, 1983 in Clinton, OK.
When you listen to a Self Made record, Nox jumps out at you completely unexpectedly! The strength of his voice captures your attention, and the intricasies of the wordplay make you listen closely.
When you add all three together, and you put them over industry quality, original beats, what you have is a dynamic soundscape that jumps out at the listener and grabs their attention like a glass of cold water being thrown on them in their sleep.
Also known as Self Made.
It's not what you know, it's who you know.
