Marnie Side

I STARTED WRITING RAPS AT THE AGE OF 9, IN THE NICKERSON GARDEN PROJECTS WHERE I TOOK ON ALL OF LIFES CHALLENGES. ONCE I REALLY STARTED GETTING INTO MAKING MUSIC.... MY BIG HOME BOY FLIPSIDE OF O.F.T.B. (OPERATION FROM THE BOTTOM) TOOK ME UNDER HIS WING. HE SHOWED ME & TAUGHT ME THE ARTS & CRAFTS OF THE RAP GAME. OFTEN TIMES HE'D PICK ME UP FROM MY GRANDMOTHER'S HOUSE & TAKE ME UP TO DEATH ROW RECORDS TO REALLY SHOW ME HOW PUTTIN IN WORK IS SUPPOSE TO BE DONE. ONE STUDIO SESSION I'LL NEVER FORGET WAS IN MARCH OF 1996. HE TOOK ME UP TO DEATH ROW SO I COULD PUT A VERSE ON A SONG THEY WERE RECORDING. THAT NIGHT..... ALL THE HOMIES FROM THE HOOD WAS THERE. THEY NEVER KNEW I COULD RAP UNTIL THAT DAY. 2PAC HAPPENED TO SHOW UP. HE SAT DOWN AT THE MIXING BOARD WHILE I WAS LAYING DOWN MY VERSE. WHEN I WAS DONE.... ALL THE HOMIES WERE IN SHOCK AND SAID DAMN! WHO IS THAT? WHEN I WALKED OUT OF THE BOOTH... THEY GAVE IT UP.... ON TOP OF THAT..... 2PAC CAME OVER TO ME & SAID.... "COME HERE NIGGA! YOU DOPE THAN A MUTHAFUCKA, YOU'RE GONNA BE SOMEBODY ONE DAY..... KEEP DOIN YO THANG" I HAD TEARS RUNNING DOWN MY FACE. I WAS IN DISBELIEF BECAUSE HE GAVE ME MY PROPS AND I WAS A NOBODY. I COULDNT EVEN SPEAK. I KNEW I HAD SKILLS BECAUSE FLIPSIDE WANTED ME ON THAT SONG BUT I DIDNT KNOW I HAD IT LIKE THAT. A YEAR LATER (1997) FLIPSIDE SIGNED ME TO FLAT BROKE ENT. I WAS IN A GROUP NAMED THE "SIDAS." THINGS WERE GOOD WHILE IT LASTED. NOW IM ON A MISSION AS A SOLO ARTIST.
