MY life is like the "TALE OF TWO CITIES' with the latter half being spent living in SEATTLE WASHINGTON,but I was born and raised SMACK DAB IN THE MIDDLE of CHICAGO. I grew up in the INFAMOUS 'CABRINI GREEN' HOUSING PROJECTS on the near north side of the city. Contrary to popular belief,many of the structures still stand today with numerous residents still remaining in the area. During CABRINI'S prime years and growing noterity, it was often "headline news" in the national papers. At the same time CABRINI GREEN was famous for being portrayed in movies like; COOLEY HIGH,CANDY MAN,HEAVEN IS A PLAYGROUND,A SMALL SEGEMENT OF THE MOVIE OMEN 2,and the sitcom 'GOOD TIMES' PORTRAYING CABRINI GREEN,STARING 'JIMMY WALKER." During these times the CABRINI GREEN population peaked at nearly 100,000 residents within a one mile radius. During my earlier years,I broke bread with many of Chicago's hardest GO-GETTERS. I spent time in COOK COUNTY JAIL (B3 and FBlock} associating with many infamous "GANGTA" INDIVIDUALS NOT TO BE NAMED-,MYSELF being one of the many that carried a 'CANDY STICK'. I took a fall in MARION INDIANA in the early seventies- Laid Dead in PENDLETON for four years wherein I became associated with many facets of Islam In America. But it was always from birth that I had a belief in GOD. No one had to teach me that except MY MOTHER (REST IN PEACE) Who taught me how to PRAY.-(This is what SAVED MY LIFE)'.. During the 80's & 90's My life was DRUG Infested and associated with criminal activity. All of which I have paid dearly for AT THE EXSPENCE OF "LOSS OF PRODUCTIVE ITIME IN MY LIFE". Years later, still living in SEATTLE, I BEGAN RAPPIN in the late 90's,developing my own style -with the assistance and critique pf many YOUNG G'S whom i was INCARCERATED WITH.IN KING COUNTY AND PIERCE COUNTY JAILS My INSPIRATION comes my 4 Sons and 3 Daughters. My FAVORITE RAPPERS are CRISTO'S,WASHINTON DINERO (Nayshin),DR.BASH, COMMON,AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST KRS-1.
