I'm an emcee from Trenton,NJ who is versatile in every form of flow and never close minded or locked in to any one style or dimension,(however you want to put it). I grew up during the golden era of hip hop.started out as an ill sketch artist drawing and writing poems during History class ( LOL!!! )(not payin teacher no mind like we do in highschool ) YALL KNOW HOW IT GO LOL!!!anyway stumbled on to deciding to take poetry to next level because my boyee use to be writin rhymes while i was doin poetry ...got a taste and never stopped eatin since ...I Love dis MUSIC SHIT !my heart n Soul ! ONCE had a chance to sign to Kurupt label when he was in talks of starting one on Sony back in 97".
I felt like that meeting let me know I had what it took back then but Contract needed some work had some flaws etc. etc. so no Signing occured and now I'm just trying to get back to that setting again because I feel even stronger now and I think I'm a lot Sharper and more of a well rounded Artist as a whole and as long as I keep my ear to the streets and keep spittin my style will never grow old because my ability to adapt to the times and change my style so fluidly to match whatever track I'm on is uncanny. Real talk youngenz hear me today n be like Who dat ! Is he new on the seen! plainly put my young hard and sharp deliveries puzzle some young artists in the streets some times because people don't expect me to sound the way I do ( because of the era I'm from ). they expect more of an old school delivery. But as long as you never stop lovin what you do keep ya ear to the streets spit and just about live in the studio one's style is like Rakim said " Age is nothin when you in the booth long as ya flow stays submerged in the fountain of youth " n IT DONT GET NO PLAINER N MORE TO THE POINT THAN THAT. THOSE ARE WORDS WELL SPOKEN AS USUAL BY A HIP HOP LEGEND PEACE TO THE "R" ( ONE OF MY STRONGRST INFLUENCES BACK IN THE 80'S ) .........
my influences are the 80's early 90"s RUN DMC, LL COOL J, FAT BOYS,PUBLIC ENEMY, RAKIM, KRS, BIG DADDY KANE, COOL G RAP, SLICK RICK, DOUG E. FRESH, EPMD, BIZMARKIE, MC LYTE, QUEEN LATIFAH, LORDS OF DA UNDERGROUND,ARTIFACTS,POOR RIGHTEOUS TEACHERS, KSOLO, REDMAN, KEITH MURRAY.

All these artists had major impact on hip hop and always will. I grew up listening to their stories relating to them thru my own experiences. the good times and the bad times. In my oppinion hip hop was in its purest form during this era of so much versatility. You had ya party artist , ya smooth luva artists, ya hardcore struggle artists, ya black power artists, and ya hustlas. HIP HOP was at its strongest and it was a movement . I loved this era . You had the graffiti and the breakdancin' It was a Culture back then . I distinctly remember the kangols and the gazelle glasses and windbreaker sweatsuits we use to wear by adidas and nike and how we use to breakdance, rhyme , and beatbox before 1st period in grammar school outside on a piece of cardboard. I use to be in class drawin B-Boys and graffiti and we tagged bathroom stalls and train stations wit da fat permanent markers and graf cans ( those who know --know what I'm talkin bout. tHE SHELL TOE ADDIDAS, SUEDE PUMAS, 2 '' THICK LACES, NO LACES! YEAH THAT WAS THE GOLDEN ERA !!! IRREPLACEABLE I got luv for the new era too but it will never have the same purity in my oppinion but who knows ? Anyway I'm a versatile emcee who's always gon stay that way and stay real for my street people who luv Hip Hop and I will always remain humble and true to myself in all I do. (n to me thats all that matters). N currently both my cuzinz the local producers I work with and my dudez from Trenton and Brooklyn are the biggest influences in my life because they doin it too. n THATZ WHAT KEEPS DA MARXMAN UP TO DATE EAR TO DA STREETS N GROUNDED AS WE GRIND TOGETHER!
