My "Demo/Promo" album. Concrete Scriptures! Click the picture for info:
I lived in Schenectady, NY until December of 2007. I've got a love/hate relationship with it. It's my stomping grounds, the place that holds many memories, and is the place that helped make me who I am today. On the other hand it holds a lot of bad feelings, old beefs, a lack of much to do, and it's the place that helped make me who I am today. My first name is Jason (I was born on December 17, 1987), I started rapping at about 11 or 12. It used to just be random shit, the poetry was always deeper and more meaningful. I took a break from rap for a few years... Well, I took a break from life (As much as I could) for about 2 years. I stayed in Albany with some people. When I came back to Schenec, there were some crazy rumors goin around. Heard I was dead, had AIDS, was in prison, had a kid, joined the military, was a fugitive on the run... There was so much. You know how it is, peoples entertainment in life is to tell stories, I'm flattered to be the center of so many. I've been beat-boxing since I saw the movie Police Academy, 'cause of Michael Winslow. He killed it. I've never heard people make noises like that, guy is nice. I one day aspire to get the skills like Michael Winslow and Rahzel. Dudes are bonkers. Everyone has a name for their area. Staten is Shaolin, Chicago is ChiTown, Jersey is New Jerusalem. I call Schenec "Atlantis" a lot. It's a lost city. There's a lot of culture and history in this place. Schenectady used to be a real happenin place, it was the place to be. Then, it sunk in to nothingness and was forgotten about by the world for a while. You never really know what to expect here. There's a permanent rain cloud here, everyone grills each other, no one speaks to one another, everyone has problems with everyone. Schenectady is a Ghost Town now, just listen to CCQ. Nothing but zombies, deadies, drugs, and guns. I hate it, but I still love it. So, much love to Atlantis, the lost city -- But fuck it too. I have currently taken up residence in Albany, NY and I am no longer homeless. Keep up, peace.

I did a lot of writing for tonight, I'm going to do the rest tomorrow. I need to write like 4 typed pages.... I'm a little scared that I won't meet the requirement. @_@ But I've been typing it to myself on my email, since I don't have word on my Mac. Hopefully when I get it on Word it will look better.
