Pheonix - Im A Renegade

was born March 1st 1989 and raised in the heart of the Bronx, New York (Soundview). At 14 years old I noticed a talent of music came to me. Now 8 years later my talent has grown extremely. The only thing I hear on my music sound like is a new style to the underground but commercial world as well. My biggest music inspiration is the late great Big Pun, I was told my lyrics are like something he would say.

See growing up as a kid since I can remember. We had the Dj setup with speakers playing instrumentals, while others were freestyling. What caught me attention was the “Oooss, the Ahhss and the whoa”. Since around that time hip hop has been in my life. That’s when I knew hip hop was the love of my life. 

My music is a blend of underground hip hop, retro-hip hop and commercial hip hop. Underground meaning its raw hip hop from the roots. Retro meaning its exciting and something new and different to the table. Finally commercial meaning its radio play and club feel music. Its music that anyone can say I’ve been through that, or I can dance to that.

I say my music sound like a cross of Big Pun and Joell Ortiz after a few cups of coffee. Others may say different. I’ve performed in various places in the United States. Like Florida, New York, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, and Arizona. I’ve worked on collaborations with artists such as Seazon All, Sparks, Cleph, Syn Sid, Bagz, Treez, Gentlemen J, S.I.R. (Beat King), Trigga Tec, Money Bags, Anthony Sanchez, and Losearlyon. Really no one big in the industry. But I will be getting there.
