Music has always been important in my family. Upon starting elementary school, my sisters and I were required to play an instrument but I was not fazed by my parent's decision because I always loved the sound of music. It is from this experience that I knew music was my calling. At 7:00 a.m. band meets, my peers would nod off while my coffee induced instructor would try and filter some energy through the room. I on the other hand, operating only on five hours of sleep, was awake as ever with my head high and feet tapping away to the beat. During this time, I was aware of my addiction to music but I was sure I didn't want to play the flute or piano for a living. It was during my years in high school that I became obsessed with Hip Hop. I was exposed to the golden age of Hip Hop and fell in love with true lyricism. I would read books and watch movies in order to hone my own skills and craft. This is when I knew that I wanted to major in recorded music.
