About Me

SUM-IN-1 MC/Producer and a member of the Los Angeles based Hip Hop group the -Metamorphs- http://www.myspace.com/metamorphs, http://www.metamorphshiphop.com, http://www.musicplustv.com GM of (Temple Effectives -Clothing) http://www.myspace.com/effectives, http://www.temple-effectives.com ............................................................ ............................................................ ........... Sum-in-1 (Definition) - that of the final answer , the one chosen, And on Earth he was Summoned to come forth. . .1) Born in L.A. (1982) 2) Began painting and writing nursery rhymes as a child. 3) Played Violin in 6th grade and wasnt ever that good. 4) Bought his first set of turntables in early 97, and began breakdancing the same year. 5) Plugged a Microphone into his Mixer, and began flowing throughout High School. 6) In College, he studied Music Technology and the art of beat making on computer based programs, while working as a Teacher's Assistant, for the Los Angeles Unified School District. 7) In Early 2000, Sum-in-1 formulated a Hip Hop Group called the -Metamorphs- which consisted of (3 MC's & 1 DJ), with founding member Mobius, The Seer (his Brother) & Dj Leviathan. 8) In 2001, -Metamorphs- released their Debut (EP) "Illuminedstates", which got good exposure worldwide. 9) In Late 2001, Sum-in-1 was introduced to Temple-Effectives-Clothing by a friend and member of the same breakdance group "Gorilla Tactics". Sum-in-1 began working on the street team and over years became GM/CO. 10) In 2005, after coming home from a performance with the -Metamorphs-, Sum-in-1 was in a severe Car Crash going 65 miles an hour, in which he fell asleep on the freeway demolishing his Honda Civic and a parked Cop Car, breaking a female officers nose, and dislocating plates in the male officer's back. He had an alcohol level of .067. After experiencing death, Sum-in-1 somehow awoke from his accident with an air bag in his face, but not a single scracth on him. Still dazed and confused he revived the unconscious police officers before he was put in jail, and released 3 days later. After 2 years, all charges were dropped, except 3 years of probation. It was truly a 2nd chance to live for the first time. 11) -Metamorphs- (Sum-in-1, Mobius, The Seer & Dj Leviathan) are back, set to release their 20 track (LP) entitled "Stepping Stones" ,at the end of May 2007, which will be hitting stores worldwide.12) And so, the real story begins HERE. . .
