About Me

I WAS BORN IN NEW YORK, AND RAISED IN JAMAICA, QUEENS. I MOVED TO HUMBOLDT COUNTY, CALIFORNIA AT THE AGE OF FIFTEEN. BEING THAT I WAS NEW TO THE WEST, IT WAS ONLY NATURAL TO SEARCH FOR SOMEONE I COULD RELATE TO. AS FATE WOULD HAVE IT, I MET UNDERRATED FROM THE UP AND COMING POTLUCK CLICK. I RECALL CALLING UNDERRATED AND ASKING HIM WHAT HE DID FOR FUN IN HUMBOLDT. HE REPLIED,"UM, PLAY ON MY COMPUTER AND LISTEN TO MUSIC."(HE IS STILL DOING THE SAME SHIT, BUT ON A SUPERMAN LEVEL) IT WAS ON AFTER THAT. WE'VE BEEN MAKING MUSIC SINCE THEN, AND I AM AN ARTIST ON LOST KOAST PRODUCTIONS, UNDERRATED'S INDEPENDENT LABEL. ALONG THE WAY I WAS FORTUNATE TO MEET JAMES "1TON" KERRY, WHO IS NOW THE CEO OF LOST KOAST PRODUCTIONS, AND THE GOD FATHER OF MY DAUGHTER, AS WELL AS EL HEFE OF FAMOUS PUNK BAND, NOFX, WHO IS ALSO CO OWNER OF THE LABEL. "1 TON" AND EL HEFE BOTH HAVE A WAY OF MAKING AN ARTIST BELIEVE THAT THEIR DREAM IS RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER. WITH THEM IN THE MIX, I WAS ABLE TO FEATURE ON ALL THE POTLUCK ALBUMS, AS WELL AS PUT OUT A SOLO ALBUM(RAPS AND BALLADS). THIS ALBUM RECEIVED MUCH LOVE FROM THE HUMBOLDT COUNTY COMMUNITY , AS WELL THE LOCAL RADIO STATION RUN BY HIP HOP PIONEER GREG MAC. AT 63 SPINS A WEEK FOR FIVE WEEKS STRAIGHT, SONGS LIKE "CHANGES" AND "1,2,3"BLEW THE FUCK UP! TOURING WITH POTLUCK, I HAVE HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO DO SHOWS WITH KURUPT, YUKMOUTH, LIVING LEGENDS, J5, BLACKALISCIOUS,BONE THUGS AND HARMONY, FABOLOUS, E-40, DIGITAL UNDERGROUND AND MANY OTHER PIONEERS IN THE GAME. I CAME TO A CROSSROADS IN MY LIFE WHERE I HAD TO MAKE A CHOICE TO RAISE MY DAUGHTER, AND TAKE A BREAK FROM THE ROAD LIFE. IN THE MEAN TIME, I AM ON THE ROAD TO GETTING MY BACHELLOR'S DEGREE IN LIBERAL STUDIES/ELEMENTARY EDUCATION, AND RECORD AND WRITE MUSIC EVERY FREE MOMENT I GET. WILL THE KID EVER GET BACK ON THE ROAD? WITH GOD ON MY SIDE, ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE, BUT THERE ARE DEFINITELY COLLABOS TO BE MADE AND MUSIC TO BE CREATED.
