I’m a hip hop artist who was raised in Yuma, AZ. I moved from NJ to AZ when I was 4 months old due to my mother and father being incarcerated. As a result, my grandmother raised me and my older brother. My career started when I was an 11 year old kid watching pro wrestling and listening to John Cena rap to the ring and diss his opponents. I was heavily picked on and ostracized at that age, so I rapped and wrote songs in order to vent my frustrations. I started rapping at talent shows, open mics, middle school dances, high school sports halftimes, and school plays. Despite being diagnosed with Asperger’s at the age of 16, I have always loved performing and creating music to inspire others who have the same circumstances as me. I dub myself the cool kid, but a misfit at heart. People around school know me as the popular kid, but deep down I know I don’t fit in. Even though I put my heart on my sleeve, I gotta make sure the stitches are even 😉
