Name: Topic Masters

Age: Older than these young boys

Reppin’: Boss-Life World/ West Covina 626

My style has been compared to: Nas, AZ, 50, Ice Cube

My standout records and/or moments have been: My standout records would be "Creep & Crawl", "Never Gonna Get It" ft. Akon", "I Gotta Get It ft. Trey Songz, and "Bottom Girl" ft. Jagged Edge. My standout moments have been signing my deal with SRC/Universal.

I’m gonna change the game by: Bringing back the format that was used by the pioneers when I was growing up and that is consistent with GOOD MUSIC. The game is diluted now because a lot of artists are making records that are trash and very few are consistently giving you quality material.

I’d Like to Work With: Nas, Scarface, R Kelly, 50 Cent, Neptunes, Toomp, Puff, Rick Ross, Wale, Miguel, Jeezy, Tip, Ace Hood, Yo Gotti, Gucci, and Andre 3000

My goal in hip-hop is: To create a brand that stands for integrity within the music

I’m gonna be the next: Nothing. I'm going to be the first and only TOPIC. I plan on following those before me and taking things that I can utilize from all the greats, but ultimately being myself.
