Now taking the U.S by storm, is hip-hop's new upcoming, Mexican-American, recording artist, born Oscar Cortez on July 5th 1989, better known by his stage name, Skar, is now being recognized by many music industry professionals that refer him as "a different breed of Latino" according to OTH magazine. His amazing talents have landed him placements in several well known independent, local, national, international magazines, music web sites, and radio broadcasting networks, including Pandora, Street Motivation Magazine, and Playboy Radio.
Skar was raised in Inglewood, California, and thats where he was influenced by hip-hop at age 12, which initially started as a way to escape the reality and issues with poverty, and he also managed to build a huge criminal record before the age of 17. With hardships in the streets,  and with a single mother working two (2) full time jobs, and it also made it easier to spend most of the time with local gang members. forced "Skar" to seek a source of income, which caused him to spend most of his younger years incarcerated. 
During the beginning of 2006, the first of February, at only 16 years of age, "Oscar (Skar) Cortez", along with: "Daniel (Tantrum) Contreras" ; "Aly Daniel (Danny) Huerta-Espinoza" ; and, "Ivan Alejandro (Nowon Else) Perez-Cortez", got  arrested, and convicted on multiple felony charges, including two (2) counts of attempted murder, as a result of an on going gang war with a rival gang. The following year, on the 4th of February, 2007 "Daniel (Tantrum) Contreras", passed away, just days after his 18th birthday. Then about two weeks before "Skar's" cousin turned 25, "Aly Daniel (Danny) Huerta-Espinoza" passed away the fourth day of June, of 2014, on the same day "Danny's" older brother, "2 Slick" and "Skar's" older brother, "Ivan Alejandro (Nowon Else) Perez-Cortez" both turned 26 years old for their birthday. 
Facing a juvenile life sentence, in the state of California, with the possibility of being eligible for parole after serving a 15 years in prison, is what helped plant the seed in Skar's head, to become smarter, to stay away from jail and to find a purpose in life. After being released and sentenced to serve a 3 year probation term, Skar, was arrested again for violating his probation shortly after his release.  Later in August, while still detained, Skar was granted an early release under the terms of being banned from the state of California for a maximum of 7 years. In late November 2007,  the courts discontinued the case, and Skar was released, and reunited with his mother, who at the time, lived in Indianapolis, Indiana.
Finding it difficult to be accepted in the "Mid-West" allowed Skar to spend more time focusing on his music, but, it also started bringing back old habits, breaking the law. Finally at age 21 after being homeless, multiple arrests, near death experiences, and seeing almost everyone around him being headed to prison, due to all the drug and gang activity surrounding the "Mid West", he decided to pack his bags and then drove to Las Vegas, Nevada with a suspended drivers license. Deciding to pursue a career in the music industry, at the start of 2013, signing a deal with Rowdoggs Entertainment, soon after he was able to reconnect with a long time friend he grew up with in the same neighborhood, Og Rome aka Mr. Everywhere. 
On August 25th, 2013 he released his first mix tape "Your Connect", under "Rowdoggs Entertainment". The following year, the annual "West Coast Hip Hop Awards" presented "Your Connect" with the award for 2014's "Mix tape Year" at the  2014. Skar's music has also been featured on many popular and independent mix tape series, and Skar's CD has managed to get over 1,000,000+ online plays via soundcloud, mtv, youtube etc.

Thank You and Welcome to my page "IceMan Da Prophet" Brothers and Sister! 

I set this page up to share with you a creative side of me and to express my talent through a Lyrical Outlet. 99% of you know I write Lyrics but there's still that 1% that do not, so Welcome Aboard!

Here, I will be posting tracks that I recorded at home on GarageBand. With that said, I am not a Producer, Engineer or very good at Mixing Down. I have figured out a way to click a few keys which allowed me to record my Lyrics on Tracks. The Quality of the Tracks are not at a Professional Grade, so I ask that you please allow attention to the Lyrics & Messages. I did not make the Beats. They come from Very Talent Producers such as TopLevelBeats.com and I use them as Demo to Demonstrate my God Giving Abilities.

The FeedBack I've been giving so far by those of whom I have shared my track with have been: Deep, Profound, Controversial, Thought Provoking and a Message of Hope, Awareness & Unity for the Human Race. 

When I write, I write from the Heart and Soul. The Very Day I Learned to not Hold Back my Thoughts and Release them Full-Throttle and UnEdited, is the day I took my Gift from God to a Whole-Nother Level. You may not share my Thoughts and I Respect that! My question is, can you Appreciate my talent? 

We all Live in our Own Reality. The more we Share, the more we Understand one Another. The. More we Understand Each Other, The. More we Blend our Realities Together. The More we Blend our Realities Together, the Closer we will Become as One... One Love

I will he Posting more Tracks Very Soon, so Please LookOut for them!

All Feedback is Much Appreciated! Positive and Negative, I Need it All so I can Grow as an a
Artist.

IceMan Da Prophet!  Why?  Because when I write lyrics, they come from the deepest and higher part of me.  My main goal and mission in HipHop is to bring knowledge back to the game, and to put presure on some folks who I know can do a better job of spreading Love and Positivity.  I ask that you be open minded and patient when listing to my songs.  For they carry strong messages on many levels and you will more then likely need to listen to them a few times to get the full scope of things.  Won't hurt to use google on some terms you may not be familiar with.  My songs are from my reality, my perspective.  I do not say that they are right or wrong, but i do say that they introduce a whole nother  perspective of Life from the beginning and into the future... Enjoy Brothers and Sisters!

"I Am A Powerful, Loving and Courageous Man!!"  I Am IceMan Da Prophet!
