About Me

First before anything, I'm a man, then I'm a self taught artist trying to survive as an artist seeking freedom, equality, justice, love and peace of mind by any means necessary and a place to rest my weary head.....I'm an artist for the people and my youth. I work hard in healing myself. I am not this "holier than thou person", but I do stand firm in faith. I come from a different place than you so overstand my differences and expect me to be myself. I am not some "dread irie man lets get high chasing reggae" or whatever. I have love for those who love me. I treat you the way you treat me. I cannot sugarcoat things so lets just be honest with each other......I am here to heal myself and others through art. My backround is Puerto Rican/Columbian born in the 305. En la Lucha siempre buscando mas fuerza y paz!!!!!!!!!!
