Influences: Wow! When I first got into hip hop I was loving the beats and the way the m.c. was rapping almost like talking and singing so it was easy to sing along to. Where I'm from in Kinston N.C. it was called Lil N.Y. because it was wild and everyone had family in N.Y.(I have a Aunt and about 25 cousins). So when hip hop first started with the REAL MIXTAPES we would get them from our family in N.Y. Remember back then they use vinyl and tapes. Most of the tapes would be from the radio shows that came on late at night in N.Y. I took to hip hop right away. The whole culture not just the music. I remember artist like Spoony G, Schooly D, Dr. Jeckly and Mr. Hide, The Fat Boys, Afrika BamBatta, M.C. Shan, UTFO, Melle Mel, Ice T, RunDmc, Kurtis Blow. It was about the time KRSOne, Big Daddy Kane, and Rakim came along that I began to grab the mic with the advice of a colllege friend named Kunle(Koolie). From there I continued to find my own nitch without trying to be someone else. I've opened for some of hip hops biggest artist, and I've also promoted about 60 of my own shows letting artist open for me. If anyone asked me who was the greatest rapper ever I would have to say KRSOne. He's a true M.C. that is considered one of the best freestlyle artist ever. Hip hop entertainer of the year like 6 times in a row, songs that touched every subject and still kept it hip hop! KRSOne gets my nod. So like him, I'm keeping the Hip Hop Culture Alive!!!
