DMNOLOGY

many people wonder why the hell is my name demonology, i'm from chicago, westown to be exact. i grew up in a pretty ethnically mixed area(puertoricans,ukrainians,mexicans,phillipinos,etc.)i'm irish/italian and my real name is damien and when i was young my neighborhood nickname was demon(cuz its sounds like my name) when i started rhymin(8th grade/highschool) i couldn't figure out what to call myself, i went thru a bunch of mc names but none stuck, i wanted something that everybody would call me then a figured why not use my hood nickname and i looked in the dictionary for other demonesque names and i really liked demonology. when i started gettin into my irish heritage i realized that my ancient ancestors were considered witches and warlocks by their christian conquerors and since the study of witchcraft is called demonology i thought it was a good homage to my ancestors. i'm not into satanism although i'm probably more close to that than catholocism. i believe in all the world's ancient earth religions, which to me is closely related to hip hop, hip hop to me is our tribal ways manifested thru todays technology-from paintin glyphs to bombin trains-from oral history thru song to ill freestyles-from bangin on the drums in the circle to spinnin beats on tables-from dancin around the fire to bboys servin the competitors. i'm hip hop to the bone but i also love many forms of music and art. peace out and be sure to check out my crew knomadz! ..
