About Me

....
» Browse This CollectionRap/Hip-Hop is not really dead, it's just misrepresented by all these fake commercial wannabe thug rappers. All that stuff was cute at first, but come on. How many times can you rap about the same shit? It's all the same, gangs, money, hoes, drugs. Everyone is always talking about how much they care about the community...blah blah blah. Then they go around giving interviews with a bunch of chains around their necks showing off all the so-called money they have. Yeah, I can see how much you care, stupid idiots. The people you don't see are the people with the real money, the executive people that control the image and music protrayed by these commercial rappers, those guys have the "real" money. It's sad but true. I just want to bring hip-hop back to the early days when it was about real life situations. I want to give people the truth about the government that is oppressing us each and every day. Companies are taking over the world, and no one is doing anything to stop it. We spend our lives working for companies, feeding millions to their kids, while bringing home scaps to our own. Wake up people, this shit is getting hectic and out of control. Listen to my words and hopefully you can find some interesting information or something you can relate to. Peace P.S. Thanks ahead of time for any and all support.Get Your Own Voice Player Manage

My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 7/5/2006
Band Members:The name is Vision, I picked up the mic at the tender age of 14 to sing happy birthday to my baby sister. I felt enpowered. I liked the fact that I could talk into this small device and make my voice be heard louder. I discovered hip-hop at the same age. I began listening to all the west coast banger from the 90's. Snoop, Dre, 2Pac, Cube, the list goes on and on. I liked the head banging stuff but I really appreciated the music that had a message and made me think. Pac talked about anything and everything. Not too subtle but not too over the top either. He had a good combination and I grew attached to his music and other similar stuff. I started recording tracks as a hobby with my boy Homage. That hobby grew to a habit and the habit grew to a passion. We had stopped while we got our lives straight (going through college, working, paying bills) but now we have reunited and honestly we have become better than ever compared to our earlier stuff. We are coming with a message to the people, young and old. Your best bet is to sit back and watch us evolve into something.
Influences: Personally, 2Pac was the first artist I truly listened to. I paid attention to his words and as a result grew attached to the art of rapping. Later on I was influenced by Wu-Tang, Mobb Deep (Old Mobb Deep), Nas, Rakim, and more recently Immortal Technique and others. "Only God Can Judge Me" - 2PAC
