Sounds Like:
a golden wind chime rustling at the top of a mountain peak in the forest
while distant waterfalls splash against warm granite in mid afternoon...

a tribal chant mantra with belly dancers entranced in kama sutra
as your blasted with hot shells expelled from my bazooka
But in the end it simply sounds like....

Styles and Proficiencies:
Artistically speaking, I grab the mic, the guitar & the pen. I write in all forms. I maintain a relentless focus on attaining as many creative goals as possible in this beautifully amazing, yet fleeting lifetime. I take pride in perfecting songs through a slow & deliberate process, hence the unique sound to each individual song. I would never compare my style to anyone. Mother Earth - Father Sky connected, therefore no definition is needed. I never stay with one style for too long for any reason, as my intention is to create & evolve, not maintain or stagnate. My sound possesses an edge of both darkness & light. Although my style cannot be pigeon-holed, essentially it can be translated through the following qualities: deeply descriptive & thoughtfully profound lyrical expression; heart wrenching yet inspirational artistic alchemy; fierce but uplifting & ever believing true-tale stories from the street, as seen through the eyes of one man. Topics Include: praise to the Most High; social rebellion against government crimes; maintaining warrior status; respect for Hip-Hop culture; hope in the face of impossible struggle; honor of the self; storms of the heart.
