What got me into hip-hop was the way that people used words and could illustrate different scenes/vibes...it was beautiful. I was like,"man...I gotta learn that!!!," and from there I started learning how to rhyme by writing poetry and short-stories. My influences were Slick Rick,Tech N9ne, Nas, and Jay-Z..then I started listening to Talib Kweli, Mos Def, the Roots, Jurassic 5, Pharoah Monche, Common and I became fascinated after that point. Been hooked on it since.
Peace and GOD Bless!!!!
