About this user
Hip-hop music has always been a reflection of culture, a pulse of the people who embrace a certain perspective. It's urban, it's fierce... and it always moves. Today, it's traveled all over the world, taken different forms and become an outlet for millions. Me? I make thrift shop hip-hop. You could probably call it old music, something like second-hand soul. If you listen hard enough, it'll stick to your chest, maybe get caught in your nose and linger, like the smell of popcorn at the movies or cigar smoke on Sunday nights. Sonically, it's a blend of Mos Def and John Mayer... enjoying a game of flip cup with Giuliani with some Buffett in the background. Sprinkle in a few stories about our American experience - one night stands, poor folks, rich folks, love, 9.11, booze, books and some tears through the laughter over a dope bassline - and that's basically me. I've been making songs for 13+ years and have been afforded the opportunity to open up stages for DMC, J. Cole, Skyzoo, The Cunninlynguists, Das EFX, Immortal Technique, Poison Pen, PackFM, Ness, Icon Da Mic King, Supastistion, Emilio Rojas, J The S, Donny Goines, The Brown Bag All-Stars, Homeboy Sandman, Final Outlaw, Rasheed Chappell and hopefully many more in the years to come. I just dropped an album with DJBooth.net that you should download for FREE (and maybe also pay for it at iTunes if you want).
