Biography:

I do not really like rapping about MYSELF, or about the things I have, or about being better than anyone or RAPPING ABOUT RAPPING.

I like the ART of Hip Hop.

I have no expectations when it comes to this Hip Hop thing. And I have yet to meet people who understand that. As one of my favorite emcees says, "WHO THE FUCK WANTS TO BE AN EMCEE IF YOU CAN"T PAID TO BE A FUKN EMCEE."

The answer to that question is OMINOUS RED.

When I graduated from High School I went to college and got a degree and started working really hard. I was chasing paper something serious. I worked 2 full time jobs for a year and 4 months. And then one day I was talking to my coworkers about some things I learned about my parents. I found out that my Mom had a kid before me who died because she was too young to take care of it. I found out that my dad had been shot once and stabbed twice before. I realized that my parents were once young. And that they made mistakes and suffered great hardships. And what I also realized was that they had great passions when they were young which is why they had all these crazy ass stories to tell. I realized that it wasn't that my parents didn't understand, like Fresh Prince would say. It was that I didn't understand my parents weren't always parents. I didn't understand them. Well, one of my coworkers cracked a joke about me saying that when I have kids I won't have any cool stories to tell because all I did my whole life was work. And that kinda fuct me up a little. So I made a decision to chase something I was passionate about while I was still young. So that when i get old I don't regret not going after certain things that mattered a lot to me. So when my kids look at me like I don't get it, I can show them I was once foolish and passionate and that I was once where they are looking at the world with certain understandings.

So one of three things is going to happen:


1 - I drop 3 projects that go absolutely nowhere and I won't regret chasing something foolish because it mattered to me.


2 - I drop 3 projects and get a handful of respect on the underground like guys like Lodeck have done and I won't regret chasing something foolish because it mattered to others.


3 - I drop 3 projects that go on to become huge and I don't regret doing it because it turns out it wasn't so foolish.
