About Me
BEING AROUND MUSIC ALL HIS LIFE, SOLOW G THA MEXIKING(BORN JESE EMMANUEL GALVAN) BECAME AWARE OF HIS LOVE FOR MUSIC AT A VERY YOUNG AGE"ALL I CAN REMEMBER IS MUSIC, MY OLDER BROTHER RUBEN HAS BEEN WRITING SONGS SINCE B4 I WAS BORN, MY BROTHERS ABRAHAN AND JOSHUE WERE ALWAYS SINGING AT WEDDINGS AND PARTIES AND SHIT, I WOULD JUST SIT BACK AND WATCH THEM, I WAS TOO YOUNG TO BE DOING ALL THAT , SO I JUST WAITED MY TURN".IT WASNT TILL THA AGE OF THIRTEEN WHEN THA MEXIKING DISCOVERED HIS TALENT AND HIS LOVE FOR FREESTYLING "MY BROTHER ABRAHAN USED TO BE A DJ, SO HE USED TO HAVE ALL HIS DJ EQUIPMENT IN THA BASEMENT, ME AND MY HOMIES WOULD GO TO THA BASEMENT AFTER SCHOOL WHEN MY BROTHER WAS AT WORK AND PLAY THA INSTRUMENTAL SIDE OF RECORDS AND FREESTYLE AND RECORD IT ON A TAPE RECORDER" IT WAS THEN WHEN THA MEXIKING DECIDED THAT HE WANTED TO PURSUE HIS RAP CAREER. "IT WAS CRAZY, I WAS THA ONLY MEXICAN AT SCHOOL, MOST IF THE WHITE FOLKS DIDNT LIKE ME CAUSE I WAS MEXICAN, THA BLACK FOLKS TREATED ME LIKE I WAS ONE THEM, WE WOULD BE AT SCHOOL RAPPIN , WAITING FOR THA SCHOOL BUS, AND I WOULD BE RAPPIN, AND I STARTED NOTICING THAT THERE WERE WHITE FACES STARTING TO POP UP IN THA CIRCLES WHERE WE WERE RAPPING, AND I WAS LIKE DAMN , ITS CRAZY HOW MUSIC CAN MAKE A PERSONS SKIN COLOR INVISIBLE, THATS WHAT I WANT TO DO". THA MEXIKING BEGAN WRITING SONGS, AND ENTERED INTO A TALENT SHOW AT NEWNAN HIGH SCHOOL " I DIDNT EVEN MAKE IT PASSED THE AUDITIONS(LAUGHING)THEY WERENT TO COOL WITH HAVING A RAP ACT IN THE TALENT SHOW, BUT IT WAS MY FIRST TIME ON STAGE, I WAS SCARED AS HELL, BUT I DID IT AND WHEN I WAS DONE , I LOVED IT. BEING FROM A BACKGROUND OF SINGING AND SPANISH MUSIC, THA MEXIKING DECIDED TO TAKE HIS MUSIC CAREER IN A DIFFERENT DIRECTION "MY BROTHER IS A SINGER/SONGWRITER, MY OTHER BROTHERS SING, I WAS SINGING B4 I STARTED RAPPING, MY BROTHER NATHAN COULD SING, MY MOM WOULD SING US SONGS FROM HER DAY , MY UNCLE TED USED TO SING TO US WHEN WE WERE LITTLE, THIS IS ALL I KNOW, BUT I WAS TIRED OF SINGIN, I WANTED TO DO SUMTHIN DIFFERENT, I HAD SO MUCH FUN WHEN I WAS FREESTYLING AND WRITING SO I WAS LIKE MAN, RAP IS WHERE ITS AT FOR ME". ME AND MY LIL HOMIE RENARD, WE STARTED OUR LIL RAP GROUP, HE GAVE ME THA NAME SOLOW, AND HE CALLED HIMSELF BELOW......I WOULD GO SPEND THA NIGHT AT HIS CRIB AND ME HIM AND HIS LIL BROTHER JUSTIN WOULD STAY UP ALL NIGHT FREESTYLIN TO CHICKENHEADS ON THA PHONE... SPITTIN THAT REAL PIMP SHIT"(LAUGHING). BY THE AGE OF 17 THA MEXIKING MOVED TO POLK COUNTY "WHERE FOLKS ARE FRIENDLY" "OR ATLEAST THATS WHAT THA SIGN SAYS WHEN U PULL IN TO TOWN". "MOVING BACK TO POLK COUNTY WAS CRAZY, I USED TO LIVE IN POLK COUNTY B4 I MOVED TO NEWNAN, I LIVE IN NEWNAN FOR ABOUT 6 YEARS, SO WHEN I MOVED BACK TO POLK COUNTY , IT TOOK SOME GETTIN USED TOO,BUT IT DIDNT TAKE ME LONG, CAUSE WHEN I MOVED BACK , WITHIN A COUPLE OF DAYS, I LEARNED THAT THA SAME DUDES THAT I GREW UP WITH (MALICE MIC , CUTT DOGG,KT), THE SAME DUDES THAT I HADNT SEEN IN 6 YEARS, STILL REMEMBERED ME , AND IT JUST SO HAPPENED THAT THEY WAS RAPPIN TOO, SO I WAS LIKE HELL YEAH"(LAUGHING). " MALICE MIC, HE PUT ME IN HIS GROUP CALLED "THA CLICKALATION" IT WAS ME, CUTT DOGG, YUMMIE G, MALICE MIC, HANNIBAL, FELONY.......ONCE AGAIN I WAS THA ONLY MEXICAN".
