Basically I am into alot of things. The main thing right now is trying to put the whole Street Credit movement on the map. I started Street Credit in April 2005 and it has been on since. When Derby Edition dropped last year I didn't expect that it was gonna have such an effect on my life. I have been blessed to meet so many good people, and have experienced alot of real good times. I hit that road with the camera and people were feelin a nigga outta town. But Street Credit ain't about me though. One of these days I will shine, but right now, it's about puttin talent on. I did it for the little guys like me, who never really had anybody in their corner, somebody actually willing to help them get to blow. You always know Street Credit gonna hold you down. Alot of people call me "The Camera Man" but most call me Street Credit cuz it's what I do and I hold it down for real. I get to go to all the concerts VIP like a real Street Credit nigga should and I have kicked it with alot of so-called stars (peep the DVDs and you will see some).
Originally from Milwaukee, Wi I also produce and write different types of music including hip hop, r&b, and jazz. Currently I play organ and keyboard for Hill Street Baptist Church in Louisville, Ky while I develop other musical and video projects. I also play for Perfect Fit and Gifted Soul, which are hot R&B bands in the central KY area. I have been blessed to have the opportunity to tour playing jazz and gospel in the U.S. as well as a couple of tours overseas in Brazil. I am working on learning the drums as well. When I get some free time to work on my own music I will put out a cd. One of the cds I am working on will be r&b that I am calling "Cold Seductive".The other one is a double cd that I'm not sure what to call it but it's gonna be a hip hop album. I already got some hot beats so all I gotta get is some cats to jump on the tracks. I also started a record label called Street Credit Records Inc so be lookin for some hot tracks from that.
I have always been into electronics and computers. I taught myself (like I do with pretty much everything I know) how to program in a few languages and I also do web pages. And if your computer is actin up, I can get you together on that too.
But the main thing in my life has got to be my son Qiwi, who is 12. Without him, life woulda been so much different and not in a good way. I work hard so that he will be str8 and not have to deal with some of the bullshit I went through. He is the best son I could ask for except he is just like me (mabe there's still hope). I named my company after him and one da he will inhereit the empire. Right now, he's into them games like most lil dudes and I'm workin on gettin him to rap again so we can shoot his first video. He was on the Derby Edition DVD and he also made a cameo appearance in L.I.P.S.'s video "Simple As That". (R.I.P. Smurda)
I appreciate all the love I get in the hood, people who respect all the hard work that went into gettin where we got, and we know we got a long way to go. I also wanna thank all my "real" niggas who helped me get this thang crackin. Also to you hataz, thankx 4 the extra motivation. I must be doin somethin right.
