Back Then (intro)

In the concrete jungle of Miami's inner city, Boomandela, once James Phillips, forged his path through the grit and grime. A product of the streets, his journey to becoming a music sensation was anything but smooth.

Raised amidst the chaos and struggle, Boomandela's life was a constant battle against the odds. But within the chaos, he found his voice, a raw and unfiltered reflection of the world around him.

Behind bars, Boomandela's spirit refused to be contained. Locked away, he honed his craft, turning his pain into poetry and his rage into rhythm. Emerging from the shadows of incarceration, he brought with him a sound that was as gritty as the streets that raised him.

Today, Boomandela's music is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit. With each verse, he tells the tale of survival in a world where the odds are stacked against you. His lyrics are a battle cry, a call to arms for those who refuse to be silenced by circumstance.

Boomandela's story is one of struggle, triumph, and unyielding determination. Through his music, he proves that no matter how dark the night may seem, there's always a glimmer of hope waiting to be found in the darkness.
