Betray Whiteness

Higher Education

This soundbite comes from the movie 'Get Out', written by Jordan Peele. This intro aims to mentally prepare the listener for the project by detailing how whiteness occupies our bodies, minds, and eyes for the purpose of controlling what we do in our day to day lives. This intro, like the rest of the intros on this project, is "whiteness" speaking to me, all the rhymes you hear on this project, is me responding to "whiteness"......

Machine In The Screen

Listen if you want to know about me, it's all in the words....

I'm a poet, an artist, an emcee, and an organizer from Santa Cruz, CA. I took my first breath in October of 1995, and since I've made breathing my number one priority in life. I don't understand my thoughts unless I write them down. 

Musical influences include (in no particular order): Eyedea & Abilities, Rage Against the Machine, Tupac, Amy Winehouse, Atmosphere, Portishead, Bambu, Lauryn Hill, Jimi Hendrix, Nirvana, Nina Simone, Cypress Hill, Thelonious Monk, Mos Def & Talib Kweli, System of a Down, Sublime, Kendrick Lamar, Rhianna, Earl Sweatshirt, Vince Staples, Beyonce, James Taylor, the Notorious B.I.G, P!nk, the Doobie Brothers (w/ Michael McDonald), Lupe Fiasco, the existence of G-Funk,  and the first Hip Hop track I ever learned every lyric to -- 'The Humpty Dance' by Shock G w/ the Digital Underground.... just to name a few


Words from me about me~

"I'm a makeshift misfit/a hyperbolic hypocrite/a ride or die feminist/and I'm smacking white supremacists/I'm Scotts-Irish, British, Swedish, German, and Italian/climbing out of the oblivion that my body was born in/every morning I get up/go outside and look up/slap myself in the face and yell/WAKE THE FUCK UP/'cause whiteness kills/straight up/so I'm puking out the poison that's been poured into my guts...."

If you know what's up, reach out, let's build (or destroy, depending on what is necessary in that moment). I don't fuck with bullshit, and I only live for what is real....

Much love y'all
