Delve into "nonsense" because therein lies truth

About Me

My name is Gabe Rosales aka Barking Spider, Popedaddy, Rosaltof and the sureno Out of Control. I'm a professional musician, teacher, artist, and author. If you want to see where I'm coming from check out my website. My life's journey has led me anywhere from touring Europe on a private plane to getting pepper sprayed as an inmate in jail during race riots. I've been baptized in the holy spirit, performed satanic rituals and I've attended 10 day buddhist meditation courses in silence to see life for what it really is. I have a yin and yang on my elbow to symbolize the balance and unbalance I've experienced in my life. I've found heaven in hell and hell in heaven. My art and music are culminatons of the phases of my life that have lit fires inside me, and that have inspired me to remold myself over and over again. In the end, I know what goes around will come around and my adversaries will be taken out by a higher power. No matter how much good you do to try and cover up your past shadines, it'll still come back and get you sometime down the line. I try to live everyday like its my last by writing music, helping friends and children find their path by using my own life experiences, spending time with the love of my life, whom I have had the pleasure of fighting off my demons with, hanging with family and the homies who got my back and supported me through this organized chaos. I don't ask for, or need too much. My full length album will be released the end of this year. See you at the cd release.
