XL BIO
XL (AKA Dave or Froggie by some of his friends) was born and raised in Binghamton NY. While XL was never all that interested in school, he took an interest in art and music at a very early age. XL says "Music has been a passion of mine ever since I can remember, listening to my grandmother playing an Organ and telling me about her passions in music, it just enveloped me into it all at a very young age". XL's interest in the art and creative fields only grew as the years progressed and he devoured everything art and music related. His early passions were to be an artist and a designer (clothing), which to this day he still pursues and currently is the founder and co-owner of his own web based store. He also has plans to extend and expand this endeavor further. Over the years he has designed numerous things, notably among these things he designed Greene County Fire Department Handbook cover that they hand out, and more recently designed Shirts for Vestal Volunteer Fire which is selling the shirts to firefighters and anyone who would like one. They will also be giving out a few free ones at this year 2008 St. Patrick’s Day Parade. XL first started rapping and writing around the age of 15, though he says his first introduction to listening to rap came with the rise of Biggie. Of his troubles with the law XL says "growing up I was always a rebel, I was in and out of jail and prison a lot, but I believe I have learned from my experience and don't intend on making the same mistakes".He notes making it as far as he has gone so far and intends to go amidst the many struggles in his life as one of his biggest accomplishments. XL says "music has always been an inspiration to me in my life", noting Tupac as probably his biggest inspiration. he also says "my family has inspired me in a lot of ways to achieve what I want to achieve in life, one day I would like to be able to give them back even half of what they have given to me in life, my sister has been a big help in motivating me to take it to where I am and continue on to where I would like to be; I am truly grateful for my family."
XL holds modest stating his biggest hope for his music is to have it heard! And his biggest goal in life is to be successful.
What makes a good Rapper?
"Well you have to have a flow, but equally as important I believe what makes a good rapper is a rapper that can paint a clear picture of what it is they are rapping about; and it is also annoying when people aren't true to who they are in their music"-XLVISIT MY ONLINE STORE!XL
