Welcome! Here's a little piece of myself through an alias known as Def-I (short for Define Self). Rhyming since a young child and making beats for nearly a decade. Born and raised in New Mexico, by Albuquerque and the Dine Nation. My main styles of performance include vocal percussion, instrumental (meaning live beats), spoken word (poetry/chants/rhymes), and freestyle (improvisation). I've been blessed to have learned these skills and performed them throughout the US. Also, making a presence known throughout the South West region. In the past, I've done concerts, clubs, radio stations, mc battles, b-boy/b-girl events, open mics, workshops, panel discussions, street jams, music video, movie score work, played with bands, and even taught mc/beatbox classes to the youth/elders. I'm down with DEFINITION RARE (co-founder), FOUNDATIONS OF FREEDOM (member), BREATHE DEEP (band member), CHIEF ROX (member), and SKULL CONTROL RECORDS (co-founder). Being an entity in these multi-elemental families helped me expand as an artist, so I give thanks for the experience to all practitioners of 'hip-hop' culture and indigenous culture. The past 8 years, I've tried my best to contribute to the art form of MCing and Beat Making, and found out that both art forms have contributed to me, equally as much. Being original and true to these styles, foremost, and obtaining a balance in the colors i choose to express are my objectives during my practice. With this being lived and said, I hope people have an appreciation in a sense for another life long path through music, and all the entities involved. Thanks for stopping by!
