Long Overdue

About Me

I guess you can say I was born Hip-Hop..I loved it from day 1 and I don't think I'm going to every stop..I'm going to being one of those 60 yr old men who still dress and live the culture...with class of course... and the other part is inside of me forever so i guess u can say i will always have an "edge"..I was born in Brooklyn, NY...Kings County Hospital to be exact.due to circumstances beyond my control I was uprooted from my birth blood family and put into a different enviornment...It originated then from the BX..where I was raised..went to school...met my best friend and my daughter's mother..made demos tapes at Corey's house..using the stop and replay method with your fingers on the button...saying my verse thru my headphones because we had no mic....The place where I took my first and last L..them being one in the same...I started writing real early...like 3rd/4th grade..it started out as a journal..progressed from there.....didn't really put it into music thought until maybe my junior /senior year..Up until then it was all about sports.......and girls......It started out with me and TeddyBear..actually still is basically just me and TeddyBear although we have had a few people come and go....and Teddy is a producer so he deals with other artists on the side..plus now that we live in different states...we both on your own grind but still one..I consider myself a laid back artist..a well rounded artist..Hip Hop to the depths but with a R&B feel to it..although it does get rough and raw at times...but you're not going to hear about how many kilos I sold or how many cats I popped or that new 157,000 watch I just copped when I could have invested it in something that generates a profit instead of depreciating..feel me?..not saying there's anything wrong with that..but that's not me..I give you music from the heart..I've been thru it all seen more than most so in essence I give you a part of me thru my lyrics...Teddy Gives me a beat and I complete the song...my thought's expand out of the circle so you won't hear regenerated thoughts..I've been doing this from the heart for over ten years..why am i not signed ..who knows...I don't question what is..just continue to feel the music and live my life..so work this 9 t o 5..walk this path and prepare for the light...(both lights)..get it?...pray for Hip-hop to stop putting out trash artists just for the hot single.and pray for the return of lyricism...hip hop inspires me...every single artist inspiures me..i know what it is to go in a booth with YOUR(for all u real artists). words and put it to a beat and pour ur heart into that mic...hear it all come together..play it for your peoples...see their heads bob up and down if they really feel it..see them give you that" that's my boy" face...you can't beat it...........you artists inspire me....negatively and on the positive side...u show me the paths in some aspects and show me what not to do in others..the gift of in depth Observation I have down to a science..therefore im injesting it ALLLLLLLLL...Love Life my people bcause were only given one and time flies so fast.....If all goes well you'll see my book one day...see my face in one of your favorite movies...fall alseep to one of my songs on our ipod or computer...I have dreams of being remembered forever...is that possible?....in my life i have seen that anything is possible.....i know u feel me right?!....Right now i give u me in increments...nothings really completed..this is me testing the waters..i accept all feedback negative or positive.I love ya'll all.......Bless.............if u want to know me on a more personal level go to my friends and look my other profile up(DaWriter)..
