Growing up in Everett, a northern suburb of Seattle, Cory has always been influenced by the urban, educated underground sound that's becoming evermore popular in the Northwest and the nation. At the age of eleven, Cory was already delving into his own expressions of life through rhyme and depictive sketches. The influence of the city and the turbulent conflicts ever-present in his home life (coping with his alcoholic father and exasperated mom) gave him all the fuel he needed to write illustrative, contemplative, and educated lyrics that have only grown more complex and relative with time and experience. This environment has also influenced a sharp, witty perspective that is able to find humor in the oddest places that his audience can always find amusement and entertainment in when presented in his unique style of delivery... ..Ripynt is known, not only for the words he spits, but also in the methods in which he can deliver his sound. Quick, rapid-fire phrasing coupled with his versatile cadence and flow match mesmerizing beats to create a hypnotic element to Ripynt's style which was influenced musically by Nas, Eminem, Bone Thugs, Atmosphere, and Oldominion. Stage delivery is also unmatched as the energy Ripynt exudes in a performance is not only uncontainable, but also contagious in a club, making all of his performances a solid success. Performing tracks from his debut album, "RIP: Re-Inventing Poetics", as well as his joint effort with long time collaborator and producer, Sinic, titled "A Mid-Summers Day Drive EP", Ripynt has been billed with hip hop heavyweights: Gza (Wu Tang Clan), Joe Budden, Digital Underground, Sleep of Oldominion, and various locals who are making their way up the northwest hip-hop scene. Prominent artists, Krizz Kaliko (Strange Music) and Sleep of Oldominion, are featured in cameo tracks with Ripynt on his new solo album, which was recently released on March 20th of 2009. Furthermore, Ripynt was the first Northwest Hip Hop artists to receive the cover of the Seattle Weekly in the month of July 2008... ..Through the years, Ripynt has made it a point to stay focused on his personal goals. He is an artist, first and foremost, and knows he has what it takes to make a name for himself, whether it be mainstream success, or merely comfortable underground recognition. He is committed to the rise of popularity and understanding of the Northwest hip hop sound and will do whatever it takes to get the word, the music, the perspective, and the style out to anyone who will give him a chance..... ..Extended biography can be found on SonicBids.

COMING SOON.... .. ....From The Stranger.. .."Poetics is a solid debut, with no shortage of passionate rhyming and topical diversity...but moments like the stomping album opener "Take It to the Top" let me know that Ripynt knows how to play to his strengths. One of which is his live show..." ....-Larry Mizell Jr......... ....From Seattle Weekly.. .."In many of the 12 tracks I've heard, Ripynt trains his high-powered microscope on his underdog status, revealing a ragged topography of wounds both superficial and bone-deep. One might think that, given his view of his hometown, those aches and pains would be Everett-centric, but that'd be wrong. Ripynt projects himself across far more interesting terrain." ....-Kevin Capp........ ....From Seattle Sound Magazine (..seattlesoundmag.com..).. .."So, you ask yourself, the man worth following? Hell yes! He's a puncher! He has faith in his own skills! He's got monumental flow! He wants you to like him for the flow, not his ZIP code! He's got monumental flow! He doesn't go around making up stupid shit about himself like Vanilla Ice! Did I mention his monumental flow? I goddamn well should have!" ....-Andrew Hamlin........ .. .. ..............
