About Me

Hailing from the creatively saturated, yet virtually overlooked Southern California region known as the Inland Empire, Micah James attempts to breathe new life into an art form in desperate need of resuscitation. Blending an almost overzealous sense of creative expression with the urgency for social change, this young “spitsmith” raises imperative questions concerning our state of being without neglecting the importance of being verbally sharp.

Growing up with no formal training and an overwhelming need to explore music, Micah James saw writing as the only viable means of communicating the sounds pervading his thoughts. With intricate wordplay and captivating prose, this young artist not only entertains, but intrigues.

A member of the Homegrown Organix collective, Micah recently made the decision to step forward with a solo effort. Keeping the tutelage of his band mates close to heart and mind, Micah James has his sights set on revisiting the most golden of hip-hop’s days while pushing modern lyricism towards the outer limits of beyond.
