HEDLESS [TEXT] <864.205.9225>

Why this name? i dunno, i was thinking of names to call myself before i thought about even rapping, i had written down some things in a notebook that i could call a band or something, but i never started a real band, i just had names for them, i thought of headless, and i liked KoRn and ICP then so i took out the a to look more like a kid's writing, i used the font i made for my old project "KRUM" in the font i made if you type Krum i copied another font with only the capital K-R-U-M but all the other letters i drew in paint, and made a font out of them... thats how the HeDLesS logo came to be, its been the same since 2000

Do you play live? Yeah, i do songs at parties, and sometimes do shows at Ground Zero, if anyone wants to do a show with me or wants me to perform at a party, please contact me

Band History: when i was in school i used to get picked on, but i was taller and bigger than a lot of the people there, they just knew i wouldnt do anything to them, in 1999, when i was in 9th grade i started writing songs in a notebook and almost a year later i started recording songs on my computer and uploading them to the internet as KRUM, i made 2 full cd's as KRUM, but they were horrible but with deep meanings in almost every song... like getting stabbed with pencils in the back of the class by popular people, and afraid i would be alone all my life, i didnt go to church most of my life, so i didnt know that i was never alone, then i started going to church in 2000, and got saved, and started doing music as HeDLesS, where i cussed in them a LOT, i didnt like doing that, but thats what people liked so i did it more, i made 3 cd's where i cussed a lot as HeDLesS Tom Shiftee from France bought them all, and i stopped for a while, and recorded a metal cd in a band called Tophe, it was only 6 tracks tho, then i went back as hedless and recorded Platinum Stains in 2001, i hated that cd, so i stopped rapping for 2 years... (i put out a HeDLesS's Greatest hits cd in the 2 years i stopped), and started back around June of 2003 when my friend Travis said i should write a really country rap song, so i wrote one in a few days and called it "Carolina Boys" that was the first song i did for "Westside til im 30" i used a few songs i had recorded a long time ago for that cd like "What lurks in da Shadows" that was on my last 3 cd's. I also did a song with nocturna darkrain on that cd called "Leave me alone". i hated that cd, but in december of 2003 i started work on a cd called "Robbin Hoodz" which was my most known cd back then i think. i pushed that cd for a while and started getting haters, so the haters started making songs dissing me, so i dissed back and starting putting all the diss songs towards a 2 cds called "Run on em and Blast on em" which i never really got finished with. i quit rappin as hedless in 2005, and changed my name to "Ivory Shadow" www.soundclick.com/ivoryshadow then i quit rapping, and started a band called "A world on fire" www.myspace.com/aworldonfire then quit that after an altercation with the band. and started a solo death metal project called Numbthecorpse www.myspace.com/numbthecorpse after a couple years of doing nothing i started back rappin again as HeDLesS and recorded "That White Boy" in 2008 sold a few copies here and there, still trying to sell more... now here we are in 2009 10 years since i started rapping, im still doing it.
