Poetry
The MC explains the beginnings: "I started out writing
poetry when I was 11 and my grandmother found my stuff and
let me know I was writing poetry. She took custody of me at
age 11 and had found my notepad I had been writing my
thoughts in. Most of it rhymed and I hadn’t paid attention
to it."
Dancing
"From that I moved into (popping) and vibe dancing. It was
started by Ozone’s son (from Breakin’). He actually started
the whole vibe dancing style and it spread thru Los Angeles
like wildfire. Groups like Black Eyed Peas and Jungle
Brothers, Scoob and Scrap Lover, all of that was considered
vibe dancing."
Rap
The MC explains his start in hip hop: "Thru that I met
Trendi who was an original member of LA Symphony. He was
always into rapping and I wasn't really into it. A friend of
mine had a birthday party and we were all freestyling.
Trendi heard the tape of the battle and asked me how long
I’d been rapping. I told him I was just messing around and
he said I needed to start rapping. We started a group with J
Beats called Halieyoos Fishermen in 1994, started doing
shows, and LA Symphony grew from there."
