Dumbfoundead was never that timid asian kid who did all your homework in math class. In fact, if you were to cheat off him, you would be fucking yourself over. He was the class clown and the kid who asked for your lunch tickets so he can get a second lunch. Being exposed to hip-hop at an early age, he randomly walked into a community center in Macarthur Park when he was 14 years old, running into Los Angeles OG's such as Mark Luv (Zulu Nation), Poppin' Chuck, Cre8 (RTN), and EZ Rock (Rocksteady). this is where he started freestyling and learning the history of hip-hop. the year after, a friend from high school took him to a place called Project Blowed in South Central where he found out what DOPE really was. that night he heard some of the most amazing freestylers, rappers like Otherwize, Riddlore, Nocando, P.E.A.C.E., and many more. After ripping countless cyphers and battles he earned the respect of the OG's and became one of the "Blowdians" himself.
At the Project Blowed he ran into two other rappers who were just as animated and skilled as he was, Psychosiz and Open-Mike Eagle. This is when we decided to join forces and form the group the Avengers, i mean Thirsty Fish. He later met even more friends at the Blowed to form a bigger collective known as the Swim Team.
You can find Dumbfoundead quantum leaping to one cypher to the next, destroying the self-esteems of emcees, and biking all around Koreatown, Los Angeles.
he's rocked stages with other great performers such as: GZA, Jeru Da Damaja, Atmosphere, Pigeon John, E-40, WC, Aceyalone, Abstract Rude, Del, Mikah9, KRS One, Busdriver, Living Legends, and many more...........

Aye wass good dumbfoundead ive been watchin yo battle wit PH alott that shits sikk as fuck aha. Just droppin by wonderin you gon post another battle iight den lates brah.
What up Dumbfoundead, thanks for accepting the request. I'm from L.A homey, I live on Western and 29th st. and my girl lives on Western and 8th by the pollo a la brasa. So I'm always in and around K-Town. I'm glad your repping LA it makes me proud that people are now recognizing that LA has some dope emcees and not just kept in that same stereo typical west coast genre. I watched a lot of your battles, and you always come dope, your mad funny, but you still stay lyrical. I'm always rooting for you man, that new PH battle was a classic. I'm also digging that positive movement your doing for the kids, I mean especially in LA we don't have any places, or people that are really trying to establish some sort of positive enforcement to the youth. So I'm glad your doing something different and reaching out to the youth. I really wanted to do that collabo contest you had going, but I'm 21 so I'm automatically disqualified lol. The homey said he saw you at some show in LA and that you were a real cool person, and down to earth so I hope you stay that way, don't lose your self in the storm. I would love to collab with you one day man so hit me up sometime check out the music when you have a chance. Much love and respect from another fellow Lost Angel peace and stay up.
YO THAT COCK BLOCKER TRACK IS FUCKIN SICK, SHIT IS AS FUNNY AS IT IS TRUE. MUCH RESPECT. PEEP THA TRACKS AFTER U GET A CHANCE AND TELL ME WHAT U THINK. B SMOOTH
