Akadimiks aka Rynel Parker

WHO IS AKADIMIKS? SOME SAY HE'S SOMEBODY THE GAME NEEDS. OTHER SAY HE MAKES FEEL GOOD MUSIC. AND OTHERS JUST SIMPLY SAY HE'S DEFINITELY GOING TO BE THE NEXT BIG THING OUT THE WEST. WITH HIS OWN SOUND, OWN STYLE, AND WIDE VERSATILITY, HE STRIVES TO BRING NOTHING BUT THE BEST OUT OF HIMSELF. AND HE MAKES SURE THAT IT REFLECTS IN IN HIS MUSIC. "I JUST WANT TO BE HEARD. I WANT TO STAND OUT AND WANT TO BE LABELED AS ME." AKADIMIKS AKA RYNEL PARKER, GREW UP BACK AND FORTH FROM LYNWOOD TO COMPTON. "I GREW UP KNOWING THE STREETS. I JUST DECIDED TO TAKE A DIFFERENT PATH IN LIFE." AT A YOUNG AGE HE FELL IN LOVE WITH MUSIC. "I JUST WAS AMAZED WITH ALL THE DIFFERENT INSTRUMENTS AND THE MELODIES THAT THESE INSTRUMENTS PUT TOGETHER. I WAS TOO YOUNG TO REALLY UNDERSTAND WHAT PEOPLE WERE TALKING ABOUT THEN, SO I JUST ENJOYED THE SOUNDS. MY GRANDPARENTS KEPT OLDIES, JAZZ, GOSPEL, AND BIG BAND PLAYING IN THE HOUSE." AS HE GOT OLDER OF COURSE HIS LOVE FOR THE ARTS GREW AND EVENTUALLY A PASSION FOR WANTING TO BE APART OF IT CAME ALONG. "THE VERY FIRST RAPPER THAT I ADMIRED WAS BUSTA RYHMES. AT THE TIME TO ME, EVERYBODY WAS SOUNDING SIMILAR TO EVERYONE ELSE AND WHEN I HEARD THIS GUY, I WAS AMAZED. AT THAT MOMENT I REALIZED THAT I WANTED TO BRING THAT SAME FEELING THAT I GOT WHEN I FIRST HEARD BUSTA TO EVERYONE ELSE." THUS BEGAN THE DRIVE TO WRITE BUT BEING CREATIVE AND CLEVER IN EVERY LINE. ALSO BEING SURE TO STAND OUT FROM EVERYOTHER RAPPER. "ALTHOUGH I DIDN'T LIKE SCHOOL ENGLISH WAS ONE OF MY FAVORITE SUBJECTS. IN HIGH SCHOOL I WAS INTRODUCED TO SHAKESPEARE'S WRITNGS. I WAS SO FASCINATED AT THE WAY THIS GUY WROTE. THE RHYME SCHEME WAS SO DIFFERENT FROM ANYTHING ELSE I EVER HEARD. I REMEMBER ALL MY ENGLISH TEACHERS IRONICALLY ALL FOCUSED THEIR TEACHINGS ON POETRY AND WRITING WHICH WAS A BIG HELP." TAKING WHAT HE LEARNED FROM HIS YEARS OF HIGH SCHOOL ENGLISH AND VARIOUS OTHER ARTIST THAT HE ADMIRED, SUCH AS; PHAROAHE MONCH,E-40, WORDSWORTH, JAY-Z, COMMON, TALIB KWELI, DE LA SOUL, MOS DEF, NAS, CANIBUS, AND MANY OTHERS, HE SET OFF TO DEVELOP HIS OWN UNIQUE STYLE. "I WANT TO BE DIFFERENT BUT GOOD DIFFERENT. I'M NOT AFRAID TO VENTURE OFF INTO MY OWN STATE OF MIND AND DEVELOPING SOME THING TOTALLY NEW. OPPOSED FROM FALLING INTO THE TREND THATS HOT RIGHT NOW" IN AUGUST OF 2007 HE PUT OUT HIS VERY FIRST MIXTAPE "THE TREE OF KNOWLEDGE VOL. 1: I AM AKADIMIKS" AS WAY TO PREPARE THE WORLD FOR HIS COMING. SINCE THEN, HE HAS PERFORMED AT SEVERAL VENUES WHICH INCLUDE, THE BLUE CAFE, CAL STATE L.A., THE TEMPLE BAR, AND THE TANGIERS. AKADIMIKS IS CURRENTLY WORKING ON HIS FIRST SOLO PROJECT "FEEL GOOD MUSIC" WHICH IS DUE TO BE RELEASED THE SUMMER OF 2008. "ALL I CAN SAY IS PREPARE YOUR EARS FOR SOMETHING THAT YOU'VE NEVER HEARD BEFORE. I MAKE MUSIC THAT YOU CAN LISTEN TO, NOT JUST HEAR. FROM THE BEAT TO THE LYRICS, THE SONG IN ITS ENTIRETY, ITS MUSIC THAT YOU CAN FEEL. ITS FEEL GOOD MUSIC."SHOUT OUT TO JIJI SWEET FOR PUTTING ME ON THA MIXTAPE......HOMEGROWN RADIO....THA FIRST RADIO STATION TO GIMME A CHANCE TO BE HEARD....SHOUT OUT TO MY BOY CHUCK DIZZLE!!!!!!I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V4.4 (www.strikefile.com/myspace)Header Banner Made with MyBannerMaker.com!
