Dear Reader,This is my condensed musical life (so far)
After my father had passed, i used the turntables he left me to scratch and mix music. I was just getting started. I started rapping when i was ten and a half. My first artist name was "nestly" for superficial reasons. when i was in 6th grade however the name Illicit just came to me. Although my lyrics still resembled my superficial name (they were garbage and embodied the flaws of rap) the new name illicit was sticking. Once i went to detroit and sold my second demo at the "sub center" i heard someone who helped change rap for me. Up until then i thought spiritual rap was lame. Not that the subject was lame, the people who performed it were just not as talented. That is, except Know Good. I heard him perform about finding jesus and being saved. He spoke about leaving the superficial world. I was never the same. I asked my uncle who was deeply connected to his church. He continued to point me in that direction. My music is now purely concious and gospel. I have not yet recorded my gospel lyrics for the instrumentals for them have not found me yet. Recently I took on the name Proverb the Poet and got into deeper soul music. Having now finished my first album under the name Proverb the Poet, I am starting to book shows and am continuing to work on my spoken word. As my life develops i'll add to the story.Peace & Love,-Proverb the Poet
