It's funny-my first love has always been poetry and R&B soul music. As a kid, I spent countless hours writing poetry and music. At the time, I didn’t know what I was doing; I just enjoyed it. However, seven years later, hip-hop emerged, bringing a unique way of storytelling. Alongside the rise of this new urban music, my surroundings changed from a middle-class environment to a more urban setting where criminal activity and police brutality reshaped my worldview and my writing. Thus, transitioning from romantic poetry to the harsh realities of the streets became a natural shift for me. Now you know who I am.
