I’m me, none of the extra. No lingo to make me look cooler then I am. No dressing to impress anyone but my self. No gang activity, hating, snitching, or faking. I ain’t looking for any static with any artist in any genre but I’m not dodging any either. I don’t do the crowds but when I do I’m nothing short of the life of the party. Life is too short and I’m here to have fun and improve the lives of others. In my journey to develop as an artist, one of the things I find to be most important is reaching back to help others. I’m far from perfect but that doesn’t stop me from attempting to reach the mark.

Growing up I often wrote pomes to deal with physical and emotional abuse I was subjected to as a pre-teen, a bit overweight, and far removed from the street life that would become my safe haven. My poetry slowly evolved into rap, my childhood into trap, and my mother was the light that guided me away from the street life. She moved me to Auburn, AL to Columbus, Ga, we’re I had to learn to blend in in a College Town. At 16 I received my G.E.D., at 17 attended SUSCC, and at 18 enlisted in the U.S. Army.
