strictly a lyricist. i'd rather be called a poet than a rap artist or even a musician. i am disconnected from the culture, lifestyle and even race that is usually associated with the genre. i have never experimented with hard drugs, lived outside of the orange county "bubble", or vocally disrespected women.i haven't recorded in almost two years now. i am in the transition from boy to man. everything i have recorded up until this point has been sophomoric, and highly influenced by other artists. the next time i record i want to be sure that what is spilling out is 100% me, fully legitimate and mature-- lacking in such content as machisimo, violence, and sexual degradation.HIP-HOP LIVES
