Biography
Been a hip-hop enthusiast for a long time, interested in everything from the history, impact on pop-culture, the five elements (beat-boxing, graffiti, emceeing, DJ-ing, B-boying). I'm hip-hop purist and I started writing poetry late 2006, even recorded a mixtape summer 2007, but I got a long way to go, just not ready for rap music - just yet. I also do Karate, Wado-Ryu style (brown belt double white stripe).
