Artist Bio:
The 19-year old Florida native started writing raps at the age of 13. As a big fan of poetry, he got a famous Robert Frost quote tattooed on his left arm. “I first saw the quote when I was in kindergarten. It was on the first page of the daily planner I had to get signed everyday. I think it was the first time i was exposed to poetry and the quote really explained my life well to me, I connected with it.”
In high school he earned his adobe video editing certifications in order to cut out the middle man. “The way I saw it, learning to edit and film videos for myself could only help me prosper in the future. I plan to have a great deal of involvement for all the visuals we will be releasing this year.” Being from Florida he’s been constantly labeled with a lot of stereotypes that don’t prove to be true a lot of the time. “I feel like everyone has their own picture of a rapper from Florida, the same way we picture rappers from the West Coast and New York. I just happen to not fit the mold, and I use it to my advantage. The more I stand out the better.”
