Growing up in the High Meadows section  of northeast Houston on the infamous  Aldine Mail Rt, or "Jail Route" as it's known, would seem like predetermined  dead end, but not for self proclaimed future hip-hop royalty. Despite being part of a "New Wave" generation, Tha KingPen aka Money Makin' Matt is young, raw, and hungry emcee who delivers his craft with a throwback element of refined lyricism and dirty south pride.

Bold, brave, brazen. Accustomed to fatigue or hardships and capable of withstanding adverse conditions. These definitions of the word Hardy are the epitome of the man bearing the same name as much as his moniker L,egnd represents a body of his stories and the art form for which it stands "Lyrics, every gotdamn night & day".
Hardy Martinez was born in New York City and raised in East New York, Brooklyn being exposed to the harsh realities of life in the projects, divorce, social injustice and pressure. Music and videogames of all genres provided an escape throughout his upbringing along with other activities which included sports and creative writing.
As a young adult, Hardy adopted the name "Logic The Legend" to use as his online gaming ID and later his first stage name when he began writing rhymes. Through many changes, trials, and years of resilient growth both as person and an artist, Logic The Legend became L,egnd, personifying his passion for word play and metaphors.
Now living in and representing Houston, TX, L,egnd is poised and motivated to finally answer his calling. Despite juggling being a divorced father, a step-father, and a full time professional, Hardy L,egnd is focused on establishing himself as a talented act, performer and as an entrepreneur.
