Sales Pitch: "What I do is real. Ain't no half steppin. I rap, I sing and most importantly I do what a lot of other people are afraid of, and that's be themselves.I grew up around all types of music, so it all reflects in the music I make today. Point blank, there ain't another dude like me out there. That don't mean I'm the greatest, that just means I do something different. Something fresh. Enjoy! New CD drops June 3rd."
