Wherever Death may surprise us, let it be welcome."-Che Guevara

About Me

I'm originally from the borough of Queens, New York, spent most of my life in Los Angeles, California and I share an equal love of both cities. I was born and raised Muslim. Even delivered by a Muslim doctor. Still, I've found that a lot of principles found in Taoism, Buddhism, Christianity, Judaism and Bushido when applied to my way of life, they hold a great and common truth and make me a much better and more aware Muslim. As you may be able to tell, I'm a firm believer that all people are one people. I DESPISE injustice and persecution on any level. I'm in full support of positive revolution and action. If you rock a Che Guevara shirt around me, you better know who he was and what he was about. I hate fake people WITH A PASSION and I despise shapeshifters. One minute you're this, the next you're that. Changes depending on who your "friends" are at the time. If your life is based on what other people think about you, you're lost. My main goal on here is to hook up with some people in the music industry and network. I'm more than glad to met new people for social reasons, just keep it real for God's sake. I smell posers a mile away and their stench is only matched by their stupidity. I still play video games, as I don't think I'll ever stop. Love Kung-Fu flicks and Sci-Fi movies as well as novels. I'm very opinionated when it comes to music, clothes and politics. I'm probably one of the very few people you'll ever meet who can't stand clubs or clubbers. I think it's a waste of time, money and energy. I'm one of the coolest people in the world once you get to know me and I take the word "friend" very seriously. I'm bi-polar on the social scale. Most days I prefer to be alone, seeing as the majority of society are complete morons. I can talk to people easily though and I'm an even better listener. I think "alone time" is vital because it gives me a better scene to think and create in. Parks and Beaches are some of my favorite places to be, because 3 if not all 4 elements are interacting there and the peace of the whole thing is well worth the lack of people.About Music? Life and Nature are my main inspirations in making music. The right beat always seems to go with whatever is happening. I love all kinds of music, but seriously... I LOVE Hip-Hop. The Culture and the Music. No other genre of music is as inspirational and colorblind as this one. It has the unique ability to remind us all that we're all the same in more ways than one. Though rough, this culture has a serious love to it. The fatherless child of all other forms of music that came before it, Hip-Hop incorporates everything one can think of, which gives the imagination even less of a limitation. I see Hip-Hop as one of the many precious gifts bestowed upon us by The Most High Himself and as a means of communication and togetherness. I took to getting involved with Hip-Hop 3 years ago. Blessed to be bitten by one of the most infectious bugs out there. Turntablism. The X-Ecutioners are to blame for that one. So, I decided to take a stab (no pun intended for those of you who know the DJ Language) at the turntables. How was it?? No illegal substance in the world could possibly compete with that feeling. It's like painting your own personal world right before your eyes. I also write a lot of poetry as well. Killah Priest and Sabac Red are to blame for that. While I love both, to DJ/Produce, or, "to speak without speaking", is my favorite of the two.I still have much to learn, as a student of life is never a graduate. Still, I have seen, heard and been through enough to convince me that we all need good music in our lives and an appreciation of quality music. As well as the people who make it. That's why I'm here.So let the plates spin.

My Interests

Becoming a better Muslim and thereby becoming a better person. Studying the past to have a better view of the present and future. Making good music that speaks to the mind and soul rather than the sex organs. Reminding people that Hip-Hop, like all other genres of music, is meant to inspire and teach. NOT to get you packed into clubs and dummyin' yourselves down into believing that simply because it's popular, that makes it alright. Internal and external Kung-Fu. Metaphysics and the unseen energies around us. The elements, auras, chakras etc. I love Chess. I write poetry, mostly slam poetry. No butterflies and roses. Though I do appreciate nature and all of it's beauty, there's just more important things to write about at the moment. Video Games I've always loved. RPG's, racing games (no one can see me in Midnight Club 2 OR Twisted Metal: Black. You hear me?? NO ONE!!!), and of course, fighting games. I still watch cartoons, though most of the new ones are garbage. I get down with Animaniacs, Tiny Toons, Captain Bucky O' Hare, The ORIGINAL Transformers, that kind of stuff. The illest new cartoons are Invader Zim, Recess and Avatar: The Last Airbender. I also love to travel and meet new people, but I really want to meet other people, Muslims and non-Muslims, who aren't afraid to do something besides talk about the problems instead of solving them. Books. I love books. If it's good, I'll read it.
