As he’s penned around 30 composition books 📚 over the years, Its Lead him to write truth from his life and about being out on the street at 17 and having to bridge the gap between Hip Hop & Gospel.
He accomplishes this with his unique lyrical approach & use of audinke breath with each line to mold the VERSE together even more.
