F@#k Yo Mixtape

MY STORY

I was raised on the south side of Chicago (the WILD 100'S). I'm the second to the youngest of 10 kids. I start writing music at the young age of 9. Music was my escape from my reality so I used it to stay out of trouble. I grew up in a rough neighborhood where opportunity was limited or non existent. I refuse to be the one that ended up like a lot of the people I grew up around.

So, I discovered my gifts at an early age and ran with it. I've gotten an opportunity to open up shows for B2K, Keith Murray, J. Holiday, Talib Kweli, Crucial Conflict, Sammie, and Soulja Boi. Music is my medicine.

LIFE BEFORE & AFTER

I have a lot of siblings so I never really had a normal life lol... Life is a lot more complicated now since a lot of people know who I am. Especially in the hoods of Chicago. People expectations of me is at an all time high and honestly I just want to be a normal person. I don't want the responsibilities of a role model. I want to make mistakes like every human being does.

INSPIRATION

Music came natural for me. Like I mentioned earlier, music is my escape from my reality. It's another form of communication for me.

MUSIC

Wirh my style of music I just do me and try to be as universal as possible without sacrificing who I am.

t sure if anything will launch in 2014 so just stay in tune with me to keep up with everything I'm trying to get moving on.
