Let's Tear it Down

About Me

At the age of thirteen, i was making beats. Influenced by the styles of Samiyam and everything he made me listen to (Dilla, Madlib, ect.), i began my quest in to hip hop music. One day I snuck in to a bar and saw Cage and Slow Suicide Stimulus perform, and then i decided to take up the art of the mic on top of my beats. When i was sixteen i released my first cd called "How to be a Hero Vol. 1" with my three man group, Random hero. Then i went solo and have shared the stage with underground legends like copywrite, vast aire, othello, omega watts, and One Be Lo. I've even performed with MTV artists such as The Pack and Tyga. This was all when i was 17 years of age. I have recently turned 18, put down the microphone, and now am selling beats.
