Def-i (on itunes now)

Bio:

u can cop my ALBUM HERE!
at amazon.com: http://amzn.com/B003O3P3DO Welcome! Here's a little piece of myself through an alias known as Def-I. I've been rhyming since a young child and making beats for nearly a decade. Born and raised in New Mexico, by Albuquerque and the Dine Nation. My main styles of performance include vocal percussion, instrumental (meaning live beats/studio production), spoken word (poetry/chants/rhymes), and freestyle (improvisation). I've been blessed to have learned these skills and performed them throughout the US. Also, making a solid presence known throughout the South West region. In the past, I've done concerts, clubs, radio stations, mc battles, b-boy/b-girl events, open mics, workshops, panel discussions, street jams, music video, movie score work, jam sessions, and even taught mc/beatbox classes to the youth/elders. I'm down with DEFINITION RARE (co-founder), FOUNDATIONS OF FREEDOM (member), BREATHE DEEP (band member), CHIEF ROX (member), and SKULL CONTROL RECORDS (co-founder). Being an entity in these multi-elemental families helped me expand as an artist and person, so I give thanks to all. The past 9 years, I've tried my best to contribute to the art form of MCing and Beat Making. Each art form has contributed to me, equally as much. Being original and true to these styles, foremost, and obtaining a balance in the colors i choose to express are my objectives during my practice. With this being lived and said, I hope people have an appreciation in a sense for life and music with all entities involved. Thanks for stopping by!
