Hip Hop is a lifestyle...So how are you livin?

About Me

I am a female that LOVES hip hop and R&B music as well as spoken word poetry.I have been told for years that it is not normal for girls to be as in to hip hop as I am...I have been in love with the music since about 1985...I don’t see me givin up on it now! But I will say this..it has been pretty hard to be taken seriously when it comes to knowing anything about this industry because I am a female. But I am up for this challenge..the more that dudes want to ill out about it...the harder I work.... especially when it comes to my writing. I have been workin for quite some time now with a group of guys that I have learned a whole lot from. We all have the same passion about hip hop and are doing our best to make music that everyone can listen to and respect. We are a crew that consists of writers,producers and of course artists! On the personal, if we can reach even one person and put a smile on their face...or have an effect on someone who has been in a similar situation and felt good about what we had to say...then every sleepless night that I have spent working on this stuff is worth it!I don’t "look" like I get into the kind of music that I do.....nobody would think that I like some of the grimest beats out there...they would be tryin to have me pegged for some ol kindergarden raps....that would be the WRONG assumption...so why give people room to assume right? My real name is actually Skye.....so why not utilize it ya feel me?Blessins to you and thanks for stoppin through!

Influences:
Sounds Like: My writing influences are extremely diverse. There is truely something to be said for a person, who can write about what they are feeling or going through ...and then have those emotions touch others that are going through the same things ....whether it be now or that they have been there before. I try to write in that same way....because I am inspired by people who are so very powerful with that gift. Songs by Luther to Stevie Wonder.....Lionel Richie....Earth Wind and Fire, and then into the new generations with Jill Scott, Lauren Hill and Erykah Badu.....I love to hear what they are talking about. I also write with thoughts of certain people singing the song....Powerful singers like Stephanie Mills never seem to get their props anymore...but that is what moves me .....those voices like Babyface, Johnny Gill, Shirly Murdock,that are very distinctive...smooth as silk, to the ruff and rugged sounds of Mary J's voice.I also draw from the groups that I grew up on, New Edition, Ready for the World, Troop......those kinds of cats!
Get Your Own Voice Player ManageAs far as my hip hop lyrics...I am known for being "Old School" till the day I die. I love the hip hop that I came up on and I get mad inspired by hearing those old songs....much love to the songs of my past....Tribe, Wu, Pac, Big,Eric B. and Rackim, Nice and Smooth, Brand Nubian, Beasite Boys, P.E., BDP, Salt N Pepa, Queen Latifa, Lyte, Audio 2, Digable Planets, L.L., Big Daddy Kane, Special Ed, U.T.F.O,EPMD....of course Slick Rick the Ruler and Dougie.....and the chick that started it all for me with her response....The real R-O-X-A-N-N-E. Thanks to people like Russel Simmons, who brought us so much of the music from the past, we are able to still have those type of influences today.I have mad love and respect for the cats today who are makin it happen that remind me of those dudes from old like ....Talib, Common, Hi-Tek, Dilated Peoples,Nas, Jay-Z, Slum Village, The Roots, Mos Def, ...and RIP J Dilla.This 1's 4 U
