LORE WAS BORN IN NORTHRIDGE, CALIFORNIA IN 1983. THE FIRST BORN CHILD OF IMMIGRANT PARENTS. IN 1988 HIS PARENTS DIVORCED AND LORE WAS LEFT AS THE BACK AND FORTH FROM PARENT TO PARENT SON. BY 1992 LORE WAS ALREADY A LEADER AMONGST HIS PEERS AND CLASSMATES. NOT ONLY WAS HE BRIGHT IN SCHOOL, BUT BY THE TIME 1996 CAME HE WAS A FULL OUT PRODUCT OF HIS ENVIROMENT. FILLED WITH THE HARSH REALITIES OF SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA. LOWER CLASS LIVING, DRUGS, THUGS, ROBBERIES, VIOLENCE, AND ALCOHOL ABUSE, AS WELL AS DRUG ABUSE WERE HIS CLOSE SURROUNDINGS. IN 1996 IS WHEN LORES INTRIGUE IN GRAFFITI CAME ABOUT. FINDING A MEANINGFUL NAME TO "PUT UP" WAS HIS FIRST PRIORITY. HE SEARCHED THROUGH THE DICTIONARY LOOKING FOR WORDS THAT WERE COMPATIBLE TO HIM. THAT IS WHERE THE NAME CAME ABOUT. IT WAS SELF GIVEN AND SELF EARNED, THROUGH HIS NOTARIETY FOR HIS UPS ON THE RTD aka MTA, LOS ANGELES, AND OF COURSE THE SAN FERNANDO VALLEY! LORE aka LORES aka LOREKS aka LOREKA, WAS A HEAVY INFLUENCE ON THE STREETS AND THROUGHT HIS NEIGHBORHOOD. (LORE:)DEF.-BODY OF KNOWLEDGE... LORE WAS IN AND OUT OF JUVINILE HALLS AND CAMPS ALL THROUGHT HIS JUVINILE YEARS. LUCKILY HE WAS NEVER CAUGHT FOR CRIMES THAT CARRIED A MUCH LARGER CONSEQUENCE. HEAVY INFLUENCED BY HIP HOP AND THE HIP HOP CULTURE. LORE GREW UP ON N.W.A., ROGER AND ZAP, EAZY-E, SNOOP, DRE, WEST SIDE CONNECTION, CYPRESS HILL, BONE THUGS N HARMONY, WU-TANG, AND BIGGIE SMALLS. IT WASN'T UNTIL 1998 OR SO WHEN THE HIP HOP TOOK HIM TO HARDER AND MORE RUGGED SOUNDING IN THE "UNDERGROUND", SUCH LIKE, MOS DEF, TRIBE CALLED QUEST, KRSONE, CANNIBUS, PSYCHO REALM, GRAVEDIGGAS, NECRO, AC-ALONE, ABSTRACT RUDE, HYROGLIFICS, NAS, AND A WHOLE LOT OF OTHERS, ASWELL AS OTHER MUSIC LIKE JUNGLE, OLDIES, R&B LIKE ALIYAH, JILL SCOTT, ERIKA BABU, THE FUJIS AND LAUREN HILL. THESE WERE ALL PARTS OF LORES UPBRINGING. BY THE TIME LORES WAS 17, IT WAS THE YEAR 2000, AND LORES WAS A FULL BLOWN THREAT TO SOCIETY... BUT IT WASN'T UNTIL HE SPOUT 6 MONTHS IN KILPATRICK SPORTS CAMP. WICH WAS A JUVINILE DETENTION CAMP WHERE KIDS WITH ATHLETIC TALENT WENT TO. WHEN HE DISCOVERED HIS TALENT FOR WRITTING POETRY OR ABOUT ANY PARTICULAR SUBJECT WITH RYHME SEQUENCES THAT HE CONTINUED TO DEVELOPE MORE AGILITY WITH RYHMING. YET AT THIS TIME IT WAS WITH NO BEATS AND ONLY FOR 6 MONTHS... FRESH OUT OF CAMP LORE INDULGED IN GIRLS, PARTIES, AND BASEBALL. ALTHOUGH LORE WAS BOUND TO LIVE A SUCCESSFUL COLLEGE BASEBALL CARREER AND EVENTUALLY WAS TO BE TURNING PRO, IT WAS NOT ENOUGH TO EXTERMINATE LORES DEMONS, SUCH AS DRUGS, DRUG DEALING, HIS FRIENDS, AND THE EVIL CURRENT THAT RUNS THROUGH ALL STREETS IN THE SAN FERNANDO VALLEY. LORE FELL CREAM OF THE CROP TO THE BOTTOM OF BOTTOM. AT THIS POINT IT WAS 2002 AND LORE HAD ALREADY SPENT 3 MONTHS IN L.A. COUNTY JAIL, FOR ASSAULT. HIS FUTURE IN BASEBALL WAS DEMOLISHING AND LORE DIDN'T RESPOND. HE STAYED TRUE TO THE STREETS AND HIS ANARCHIST WAYS THAT LEAD HIM TO A DEAD END. AFTER SPENDING AN ADDITIONAL 4 MONTH SENTENCE IN L.A. COUNTY JAIL, LORE CHANGED HIS SCENERY AND MOVED TO LAS VEGAS. HIS STAY IN LAS VEGAS WAS FOR ONLY 7 MONTHS, BUT FOR A 21 YEAR OLD THAT WAS PLENTY OF TIME TO HAVE FUN. LORE WAS STILL BATTLING HIS DRUG DEMONS SO GOING HOME WAS OUT OF THE QUESTION. SO LORE TOOK A CROSS COUNTRY TRIP IN THE GREY HOUND TO MIAMI, WHERE HE HAD AND AUNT. THIS CROSS COUNTRY TRIP WAS THE TURNING POINT FOR LORE AND HIS CRIME LIFE. IT WAS A 4 DAY TRIP OF OPEN LAND, HIGH BLUE SKIES, STORMS, AND ALOT OF SOUL SEARCHING. FINALLY LORE KICKED HIS DEMONS COLD TURKEY AND WITH THE HELP OF GOD. HIS LORE HIMSELF AND HIS SIBLINGS GIVE LORE THE STRENGHT TO REFORM HIMSELF AND BECOME A MORE FOCUSED INDIVISUAL.
LORE HAD ALWAYS BEEN A FIGHTER, A WINNER, AND A BLESSED PERSON, BUT IT WAS TIME FOR IT TO FLOURISH. THAT WAS ONLY IN THE HANDS OF LORE. SO LORE BEGAN DEVELOPING GOALS THAT REVOLED AROUND HIS INTERESTS IN LIFE, FAMILY, HAPPINESS, TRANQUILITY, BUSINESS, CONSTRUCTION, AND "HIP HOP". THIS ENABLED HIM TO FOCUS ALL HIS ENERGY ON ACHIEVING THESE GOALS GRADUALLY PIECE BY PIECE. LORE RETURNED TO CALIFORNIA AFTER 8 MONTHS TO BECOME A GOOD FATHER TO HIS 2YR OLD SON NAMED AFTER HIM "ALDO". HE HAS BECOME A CALIFORNIA STATE GENERAL CONTRACTOR, AND IS CURRENTLY BECOMING A LICENSED REALTOR.HE EVEN FINDS TIME TO FIT IN COACHING HIS KID BROTHER AND ALL HE LEARNED IN BASEBALL DISCIPLINE, AND RESPECT. NOW LORE DOESN'T DO HEAVY DRUGS. HE LIVES IN CALIFORNIA WHERE THE CROPS SUPPLY ENOUGH EAZE. NOW THAT ONLY LEAVES ONE MORE THING, "HIP HOP". IN THAT RESPECT LORE HAS ARRIVED THROUGH ALL THE ENCOURAGEMENT FROM HIS PEERS TO TAKE IT SERIOUSLY. BEFORE THAT IT WAS JUST FREE STYLIN' FOR FUN. THEN THAT BECAME WRITTING OVER BEATS, THEN CAME HOOKS, AND BRIDGES, AND EVENTUALLY A PRODUCER NAMED GELO WHO WORKED OUT OF MELROSE,CALIFORNIA. WHEN LORE RECORDED HIS FIRST 2 SONGS, "POWER LIKE TOWERS" AND "NO EXPLANATION", LORE TOOK THESE SONGS TO HIS FRIEND PNUT WHO WAS A REP. FOR A.6. ENTERTAINMENT. LORE SOON MET EDDIE THE C.E.O. OF A.6. AND MADE A GREAT IMPRESSION. LORE RECORDED AT A.6. STUDIOS FOR ABOUT A YEAR AND A HALF. TO THIS DAY HE CONTINUES TO HAVE VERY GOOD RELATIONS WITH ALOT OF PEOPLE IN THE GAME. AND IS SOON TO BE MAKING A BIG MARK ON THE UNDERGROUND GAME, ANS THE INDUSTRY IN GENERAL. THE TRUTHFULNESS IN HIS PERSONALITY,HIS CHARISMA, AND HIS LYRICISM WILL CARRY HIM ALONG THE WAY IN AN INDUSTRY THAT IS FILLED WITH HYPOCRACY, DECIET, AND BETRAYAL, LORE WILL STAND OUT AS AN ARTIST IN A CLASS OF HIS OWN WITH HIS POETRY, HARDSHIT, THE TRUTH, OF HIS EXPIERIENCE WHICH HE SHARES AND HIS CREATIVITY THAT WILL ONLY GROW WITH TIME. LORE WILL BE A BLESSING FOR ALL HIS FANS, AS HE HAS BEEN A BLESSING FOR ALL THOSE AROUND HIM..
STAY TUNED...LORES
