Stylo is the name and I got it from the Spanish word "estilo"
mixed with the English word "style." I’m a 19 year old
Mexicano from South Omaha, Nebraska. Yeah, I said
Nebraska. Not the biggest Hip-Hop place but I’m making
sure it becomes something big. I don’t portray the
normal "Chicano rapper" nor do I enjoy that label to be
put on me. I’m an emcee to the fullest and nothing else.
I look at myself as a spokesman for the average hood cat
in the Midwest. Since the age of twelve I’ve been in
love with Hip-Hop. Being into writing; emceeing kind of
fell into place. It started off as me and my younger
cousin doing it. He stopped and I didn’t. I felt I had a
talent in this and things moved on from there.
I started writing and freestyling everywhere I went. I
became known around my part of the city as one of the
best Mexican rappers around. I hooked up with Edgar De
Leon, a guy I knew from around my way who was into
helping young cats like myself, and had him listen to
one of my songs that I did. At that time he was just
getting Vive Grande Entertainment started, after seeing
we had similar ambition and desire to make big things
happen in our city, we decided to go into business
together, with him being my Manager and I became the
company's first Artist. As soon as we got started we hit
the ground running, working for months non-stop, from
there came the mixtap, "Mic Killas" and then eventually
my first album, "Call it What You Want." Currently I’m
the only Latino rapper in my city getting the most
recognition and soon many more will. It’s the feeling
that you can do something that can affect people that
got me addicted to this culture. In this world full of
letdowns the only thing that kept me going with my music
was the motivation from my peoples that always believed
in me and especially the inspiration that I’ve gotten by
my girl. It might sound cheesy to some but she’s the
only thing that keeps the fire for me to succeed
burning.
I’m here to break the stereotype of a Mexican rapper and
I can’t stress it enough. They see us and automatically
see a certain type of rapper. I rap what I feel and say
it the way I talk. I don’t sugar-coat things and usually
it gets me in trouble. I’m a realist. Since I’m from the
middle of the map I’m influenced by everyone in the
game. So to label my style is the job that is left for
the listeners. Listen to something new for a change.
"All I got in this world is my life and my music"
