Truth Crushed To Earth Will Rise Again!

About Me

Grew up literally around the world, somehow ended up in beautiful beautiful Vancouver. I've been making music for a long time, but only seriously since 2000. I write and record songs, make beats and am trying to become a real Producer of music. Love to cook and feed my friends, quiet when I'm alone, but get me started and DAMN. I love life 100%, stems, seeds, everything. Throw in the vacuum attachments and we're in business. My main aim is to embody knowlede and wisdom and affect the people around me (and the World) in a positive, constructive way, reaching towards purity of mind and soul, deconstruction of "self" and unity with the Greater Self. Not in the future sense, but NOW. Really though, no matter what happens, you can find me kicking it, having a great conversation with somebody, even if it is myself. Enough.

My Interests

Good food, good people, good music, good books, good clothes, good shows. You know, pretty much what err-one like. Except totally different.

I'd like to meet:

If you rap, holler. If you know how to cook, holler. If you read books, holler. If you wish the eighties never came back, holler. If you think we's on the same track, holler. If you know there's more to life than to make and spend dough, holler. If you used to have a crush on Dawn from EnVogue, holler. Yep.
