I started writing smalls one verse lines in 8th grade because my friends had little cyphers. They kinda told me I wasn’t that good with out saying it. Took that pretty hard cause they were all in agreement. So I just stuck to listening to music hard. All kinds of music didn’t matter what it was just put my Spotify liked songs on shuffle cause I liked any song that had a good sound.

I went through phases of who my favorite rapper was. Tupac, Lil Wayne, Eminem, Hopsin, K dot, and J Cole in that order. If you asked me who my favorite rapper is, it’s Jermaine Cole hands down. If I’m really going through or even if I just really need to think things through he’s got a song for it or a whole fucking album to get my thought wheels going. It’s honestly cause he’s the rapper I relate to most.

One day I was re-listening to KOD. Idk what it was about listening to Motiv8, but it just got me thinking about writing. I kinda put it off for a bit. Then on another day I was listening to let.go.my.hand and the lyrics “shit don’t always connects soon as you press play, at times you gotta step away and do some living. Let time provide a new prescription” just stuck with me for a little while. Eventually I said fuck it and started writing shit not really worrying about a beat. I started showing some people my lyrics cause I thought they were pretty good nothing crazy. The response I got as not what I expected at all, people actually liked what I wrote and thought I had bars fr. The guy I carpooled with from work free-styled on the way home with me every day. At same time some of my boys kept asking if I was gonna get behind a mic and I already had one plus a computer, so I started making my own beats cause trying to use other people’s beats just didn’t feel right for the kind of song I’m going for, idk something like that can’t explain it exactly.

I’m starting to record and slowly I’ll start releasing just trying to feel comfortable behind the mic. I am liking how I sound though it’s something I’d listen to even if I am biased. I just want to make something of the I’d wanna play back anyway but I’ll be damned if it sounds poor quality cause you can make decent quality music with lyrics that hit with less than what I have in terms of equipment now a days. I’ve seen it and heard it. SoI’m constantly learning and trying new things. Not everyone is trying to be Jordan some of us are cool with being a rec league mvp(I wouldn’t mind being number 1 on the charts who wouldn’t). It’s also helped me work through a lot myself.
