Biography read about me, my style and what I'm all about.
I AM FREE & BACK on the streets as of July 28th. I broke and got no money. I is just a lonely brother trying to make a dollar. Tired of eating mystery meat & drinking Kool-Aid off of a tray through a hole. I may be old school, but my def silencing lyrics will leave any rapper still in his tracks. Working out of a halfway house in Miami for the past year gave me plenty of time to compose my rhymes. Check a brother out at www.myspace.com/xconLionel

I know this is a competition, but i dont look at it that way. Yea we are all in this to win $100,000 and a record deal. That is the truth. But this being my 2nd time in a semifinalist position, I have a humble outlook this time around. Whether i win or not, I am going to keep it real and reach back to the WORLD, and just like LOUD is a community, the WORLD IS ONE BIG COMMUNITY. And i wanted to make it known to everybody the type of nigga I really am. God-willing that my name is in the top 3 and get a check, I am NOT going to act "BIGGER THAN YOU" I am going to be the same person I am, just in a free financial environment that I've never had b4. Real talk. Basically, I am saying that I'm not going to portray selfishness because the reason i really do this music is 4 you. Ya feel wat im saying. And every business that caters to the consumer is successful. For example, if you need work done to your car, and Im the mechanic, I am going to make sure that I fix your car until the engine light goes off, Great service=repeat business. In my case, I am the rapper/lyricist with the mouthpiece and I am going to satisfy your ears always because you will continue to listen. Now, i felt so strongly about making this promise to every1 on LOUD and around the world that I couldnt put it all into words as you can see & wanted to make a song about it, why not on LOUD? The crazy thing is, i had to fit my whole heart & promise into ONE minute. And this is how it came out. So this is really the reallest track i've put on loud in my personal opinion and I hope that you understand and believe that each and every individual is influential to where i am right now in some way, form or fashion. And I Thank you . . . now with that said, check out the new track "MY PROMISE" on Reefa production ((go figure, i was blazed when i wrote it)) and feel free to let me know wat you think. 1 LOVE
