About Me

Music! Self expression, creativity, creating for a purpose. Anything active, all sports/ working out etc... On my other page you can listen to some of my tracks on the up coming album. There is a link to that page below. I am a hip hop artist out of Cali's Bay Area. Currently working with Squirt at K-Lou Studios and Fine Wine Productions. The Album entitled, "The Way I See It" is in stores now at all Rasputin Record locations and cdbaby.com/jelement The next project is in the making so keep your eyes open. Me and my business partner also have a clothing line (MEKER) established and getting ready to take off, more news on that shortly. On a personal level, my friends give me shit for talking to too many people. Droping 20 dollar bills to the homeless in exchange for some stories or some jokes isn't out of character. I get that from my Granny.....Richmonds finest. Drop me a line on my music page(I don't check on this page much) and I will be sure to get back to you.CLICK ON THIS CD TO HEAR A TASTE OF THE ALBUM.

My Interests

ORIGINALLITY, HOMEMADE PRODUCTS, MAKING AN IMPACT

I'd like to meet:

BOB MARLEY...even though I don't smoke as much as I used to, he is the one who influences my music the most. "One Love One Heart." One of my Lines in a song entiled.."On a Mission..." I release a puzzle piece for the world to see/ no race, religion, government flags or separation by sea/ Brothers Killing Brothers, that's what war is to me/ The world shares one blood line and my mission is unity." Bob marley said..."My life is not important. My life is for the people. If my life is just me...my one security then me no want it."
