About Me
1. THE BIRTH OF MY ACOUSTICS….
BORN 12-21-1985 ON THE EAST COAST, IN BRIDGEPORT CONNECTICUT, HIS MOTHER LEFT CONNECTICUT IN 1987 TO GET AWAY FROM HER PAST AND START FRESH IN LAS VEGAS. AT THE AGE OF TWO YEARS OLD VEGAS GREW UP KNOWING NOTHING OF HIS PAST WITH HIS FATHER AND OR OTHER FAMILY MEMBERS. VEGAS IS A CHILD OF SIX, FOUR SISTERS AND ONE BROTHER. GROWING UP IN LAS VEGAS, VEGAS STARTED TO GET TO KNOW DIFFERENT PEOPLE IN DIFFERENT COMMUNITIES...
2. WHAT GAVE VEGAS THE SPARK FOR HIS AMBISION…?
THERE CAME A TIME WHEN VEGAS WERE YOUNG, LIFE OPENED UP TO HIM AND ALL VEGAS WERE ABLE TO SEE WAS THE PAIN ON THE LAND. BECAUSE OF THE DYSFUNCTIONALITYS THAT RUN THIS WORLD, WE LIVE IN. MADE VEGAS FEEL LIKE WE WILL NEVER BE UNITED AS PEOPLE. VEGAS WERE 6 OR 7 YEARS OLD WHEN HE TRIED TO COMMIT SUICIDE. VEGAS SAID, HE HAD A ROPE IN THE CLOSET AND A CUP FULL OF POISON. VEGAS SAID, HE REMEMBERS STANDING ON THE BUCKET WITH THE ROPE IN ONE HAND AND THE CUP IN THE OTHER HAND. VEGAS SAID, HE WAS CRYING THE WHOLE TIME OUT LOUD TO SEE IF ANYBODY CARED. NO FOOT STEPS UP THE STAIRS, NO YELLING FOR HIM TO SHUT UP. ONLY A VOICE TALKING TELLING VEGAS NOBODY CARES ABOUT HIM WHY WAIT COMES NOW. SOON AS VEGAS WAS READY TO GIVE UP ON LIFE A SONG CAME ON THE RADIO (I WAKE UP IN THE MORNING AND I ASK MY SELF IS LIFE WORTH LIVING SHOULD I BLAST MYSELF) IT WAS TUPAC SHAKUR BUT AT THE TIME VEGAS DIDN’T KNOW WHO HE WAS. HIS SONG MADE VEGAS FEEL LIKE HE WAS NOT ALONE ON WANTING TO CHANGE THE WORLD. VEGAS SEEN IT AS, HERE’S A MAN GOING THROUGH A FAR MORE HARDER STRUGGLE THEN HIM BUT YET HE’S ON THE RADIO. EVERY SINCE THAT DAY VEGAS LIVES BESIDE HIMSELF BECAUSE EVERY MOMENT THAT PAST, VEGAS ARE LIVING EVERY MOMENT TO THE FULLEST….
3. THE JOURNEY WITHIN VEGAS, DREAMS…
VEGAS STARTED RUNNING THE STREETS ONLY TO TRY TO FIND HIS TRUE PURPOSE IN LIFE. GROWING UP IN LAS VEGAS HE (VEGAS) BELIEVED THAT MADE HIM READY FOR THE WORLD. MOVING TO THE EAST COAST AT 16 YEARS OLD VEGAS SAID, IT FELT LIKE HE ENTERED INTO A NEW LIFE, LIVING WITH HIS FATHER AND HIS NEW FAMILY WAS A BIG CHANGE FOR VEGAS, HE FELT CAPTURED. GOING BACK TO LAS VEGAS EVERY SUMMER VEGAS REALIZED HOW MUCH BETTER HE WAS LIVING ON THE EAST COAST IN TERMS OF EATING AND SLEEPING. AT THE AGE OF 18 VEGAS CAUGHT A CASE ONE SUMMER OUT IN LAS VEGAS FACING 6 FELONY’S VEGAS FELT LIKE HE WAS DEAD AMONGST THE WORLD, SLEEP IN HIS CASKET. VEGAS SAID TO HIMSELF, I’M ALIVE BUT LIFE IS STILL GOING ON WITHOUT ME. I GOT YEARS OVER MY HEAD AND IT SEEMS AS IF NOBODY REALLY CARES. LIVING IN JAIL VEGAS REALIZED A LOT OF THINGS VEGAS SEEMED TO CARE ABOUT SOONER THEN LATER DIDN’T MATTER NO MORE. VEGAS SAID, BECAUSE ONCE YOU ARE INCARCERATED IT FEELS AS IF YOU HAVE ENTERED INTO A NEW WORLD. THERE CAME A NIGHT IN VEGAS CELL WERE HE MADE AN A’MEND WITH GOD……
4. THE TURNING POINT…
VEGAS SAID, HE REMEMBERS LIKE IT WAS YESTERDAY STANDING IN COURT. THE JUDGE ASKED WAS THERE ANY FAMILY PRESENT, VEGAS MOTHER THEN STOOD UP. THE JUDGE THEN READ VEGAS CHARGES AND FELT AS IF VEGAS WEREN’T READY FOR SOCIETY. THE BAILIFF THEN SHACKLED VEGAS DOWN. NOW AT THE TIME VEGAS SAID ALL HE WAS ABLE TO DO WAS GET HIS MIND READY FOR THE PENITENTIARY. THEN OUT OF NOWHERE THE JUDGE THEN ASKED VEGAS DOES HE HAVE ANYTHING TO SAY BEFORE THEY WALK HIM TO HIS CELL. VEGAS THEN GOT UP AND LOOKED THE JUDGE RIGHT IN THE EYES AND SAID, I DON’T KNOW YOU AND YOU DON’T KNOW ME BUT WHAT I DO KNOW IS THAT GROWING UP AS A BLACK MAN YOUR ANCESTORS PAST AND MIND GOT EVERYTHING AGAINST ME IN TODAY’S WORLD. THEN VEGAS SPOKE ON HOW MOST MINORITIES ARE SCARED OF THEIR FUTURE, ONLY BECAUSE THEY DON’T SEE THEM IN IT, SO WE LIVE A LIFE OF CRIME TO MAKE A NAME FOR OURSELFS. VEGAS THEN SAID, IT’S VERY HARD FOR SOMEONE TO BE POSITIVE WITH NO FOOD IN THE KITCHEN AND AMERICA KNOWS THE STREETS WILL CONTINUE TO GET WORSE WITHOUT A HELPING HAND THEREFORE WE WILL NEVER HAVE A CHANCE TO CHANGE. VEGAS THEN SPOKE ON HIS MOVEMENT GHETTO MERSYNARY AND HOW HIS INCARCERATION WILL NOT STOP HIM FROM CHANGING THE WORLD.
5. THE MISSION FOLLOWS WITH ONES POSITION TO CHANGE NATIONS…
