Slick Vic Low/The Lyrical Leviathan

About Me

Slick Vic Low, born Victor F. Rodgers the 2nd began his journey into Hip-Hop @ age 8 when he first stepped on stage, from that day forth his tongue has been blessed with the gift of poetic speech. Originally a native of the Steel City of Pittsburgh Pa,(go Steelers) he came to the Baltimore area in 2001 to study media and urban arts production at Coppin State University and in the mean while integrated himself and his abilities into the regions artistic community. He is also a member of the Baltimore based artistic fam and unit Torchlight Entertainment (Torchliiiiiiite!!! )The Lyrical Leviathan is the evoL ancestor of Slick Vic Low, who first emerged into this time period and dimension around early 2000. A ferocious war emcee and very vivid lyricist Leviathan's arrival was originally prophesied in the Nas classic "It ain't hard to tell". He is very dangerous and yes potentially evol at all times, yet always capable of evolving that evol into its reverse which is love!When these 2 powerful entities and incredible emcee's unite in the fashion of Optimis Prime and Leader One they become The Chosen One and all encompassing Spirit of Hip-Hop, undisputed in Microphone Warfare and born with infinite metaphoric metaklorins within his souls fire. Their latest creation "The Art of Spitting" has been described as "poetically painting pictures with saliva through the highly diverse spectrum of Hip-Hop lyricism." Slick Vic Low/The Lyrical Leviathan is at complete oneness with the Hip-Hop Spirit Ether, sent by God to Bless the Mic and bring balance back to the force of Hip-Hop expression. "It is our overstanding of existence that life and art do not merely imitate each another but our in actuality one and in full control of the creators grasp, making Hip-Hop our mode of communication and communion with the great I am who lives within and is a part of us all.Therefore Hip-Hop is very much are "Religion" however we are not quote on quote religious, but simply spiritual men of God striving to achieve eternal oneness with the beneficent omnipotent creator!"1ne Love, Slick Vic Low/The Lyrical Leviathan
