As owner of Regime Records and Founder of the Poetry Slam Association, Fascious has gained substantial recognition for receiving numerous awards and medals recognizing his writing and performance abilities. ["Best Flow," (2005) "Rookie of the Year,"(2005) "Best Team Piece," (2005, 2006) "All Around Bad Ass," (2006) and "Grossest Poem," (2007) for the ACUI National Poetry Slams]. With the experience of 5 National Poetry Slam Competitions under his belt and having been ranked 2nd in the United States for the 2005 SUNY Oneonta Poetry Slam Team, Fascious has since wrote, directed, as well as performed his own one man show released as a Hip Hop Theatre play inspired by his solo debut album entitled Penumbra which was the recipient of the 2008 Research and Creative Activity Grant Award. "Fascious broke the barriers of traditional theater, combining multiple mediums to express his innermost thoughts and beliefs in a way that challenges our acceptance of reality," noted by the State Times.
As Two Time Northeast Regional Poetry Slam Champion (2007, 2008), Two Time SUNY Oneonta Grand Slam Champion (2006, 2007), and Nuyorican Poets Café Slam Semi-Finalist (2007); Fascious has taken steps toward the next level of his career; opening up for some of today’s most diversely innovative artists including Saul Williams, HBO Def Poetry’s Anis Mojgani, M1 of Dead Prez, Head Automatica, and Immortal Technique. In addition to performing alongside talents such as The B-Side Players and Platinum Selling Recording Artist/Grammy Nominated Pianist Jeremy Wall, Fascious was cast for John McCaslin's production of Accidental Death of an Anarchist written by legendary Italian playwright and Nobel Peace Prize winning theatre director, Dario Fo.
Fascious is a recent graduate of the State University of New York, College at Oneonta and currently is interning with the Hip Hop Theatre Festival to invigorate the fields of Theater and Hip Hop by nurturing the creation of innovative work within the Hip Hop aesthetic.
