My Biography.....well in dis case AutoBiography is an interestin concept within itself. Bein dat i was always an unheard voice, I was always someone no one listened 2 but had so much 2 say dat needed 2 be heard. My untold story is what makes my AutoBiography "interesting" 2 me. Well I discovered dis GOD given "Gift" at 12 years old in 1997. As a kid growin up in Albany,GA...da youngest out of my mama's 3 boys it was always hard 2 be heard. Even when I reached an age where I had a lil bass in my voice(lol). But havin brothers 7 and 8 years older than me and bein in a position where I could'nt help but see what da "Real World" was like as a child always kept me ahead of my peers and ignored, even if it was 2 a small degree in my family as far as my opinion goes. At 8 yrs. old I was thinkin bout how can I help out wit da rent(of course I did'nt bein dat I was 8 yrs. old) and other things dat none of my friends were dealin wit or even thinkin bout whether or not they was in da same position or not. Da difference is ignorance really is bliss but it's xtremely temporary but as kids it's not ignorance it's jus simply bein a kid. But me...I kinda feel I partially had dat privilege taken away jus from knowin more than a kid should know you know what I mean but all I knew and all I felt was more and more reason why i needed 2 express myself. I was constantly downed and told I "could'nt" and I "won't" "Be" by the very people who were supposed 2 be motivatin me, pushin me 2 be a better person when I grew up....my Teachers at school! Add dat 2 da fact dat I was a reject all da way up 2 da 7th grade da 2nd time(lol) and you might agree dat I was.....an OutKast! Which is funny cuz in dat I became dis and there lies my inspiration....OutKast! I remember da feelin I felt listenin 2 ATLiens in 96' which 4 me was da 1st OutKast album I had eva heard. But I identified wit it as if I wrote it myself and da creativity in it showed me dat thru music I could also put my Artistic talents 2 use as well as express myself which like I said earlier was sumthin I "needed"....Self-Expression! But I began 2 dive in da depth of my own spiritual bein and had had a 'Reality Check" prior 2 hearin ATLiens and everything jus started makin sense. But even then I still did'nt try rappin(lol). It took someone, a stranger 2 come up 2 me and ask me 2 Freestyle 2 awaken da sleep. 4 some reason I jus did it and it actually came out tight! At least 4 back then(lol) but after dat I started pursuin music and eventually formed a group called Georgia Bois wit my best friend Brian and got wit a label(which was more like a group cuz labels have money) called Slumped Out. Though I neva recorded wit them due 2 minor setbacks da xperience taught me ALOT! Music and Business wise (now keep in mind I'm like 15 aroun dis time so I had been rappin 4 3 yrs. now but anyway....)Dat did'nt work and Brian obviously did'nt take da whole "music" thing as serious as I did cuz he was neva around when it came 2 doin business, he wasn't really writin 2 any of da songs "I" came up wit 4 us 2 do so I branched off and did my own thing All by myself and in no time I was recordin!...Now..as time grew wings and flew by year after year I went thru plenty of disappointments, several studios in an attempt 2 find 1 productive place 2 record at and too many recordin droughts. Dat is until I met my nigga Neil! His studio wasn't da best and da sound wasn't professional but after recordin wit him few times he decided dat I no longer needed 2 pay cuz wit all dat I was doin da money was gonna come anyway cuz he believed in me and truly believed dat I would make it! I can't explain how I felt 2 finally have someone believe me dat did'nt feel like they were supposed 2, he jus saw in me what I saw but thought no one else could and maybe neva would! So we were like a team kinda, he let me record and when I made it we'd upgrade da studio and make money 2getha. So at dis time I stayed in da studio recordin, learnin and jus masterin my craft and tho we did'nt get da chance 2 do what we had planned dat xperience is what I owe everything I got and will get from makin music so I feel like I owe him 4 dat blessin. Fast forward 2 da present...As of now once again, I'm havin problems findin a studio but I ain't sweatin it cuz now I'm 2 da point where I'm like...If I build it, they will come. Meaning if I build my own studio 2 record, I'll have a deal in no time cuz thru it all I've only gotten better! 1 thing all of it taught me tho was how 2 make lemonade from lemons...thus we have...Da Lemonade Stand!!!! My debut album dat I'm workin on as we speak, so stay tuned America! Mr. Good 4 Nuthin's Makin Somethin Of Himself:-)
