Hip-Hop Quotable: "I'm that element created by
descendants smoking Cuban cigars and drivin antique
cars…"
For over 10 years I have put my heart and soul into this
music we call Hip-Hop. I have accomplished this by using
real life scenarios and underground persona which best
describes my music and lifestyle. George Emmett was this
kid I used to hang with in high school who told me to
start writing. At first, I was reluctant, but gave it a
shot and here I am doing my thing. Ever since then,
hip-hop has been a culture I've embraced in everything I
do in my life.
So let me tell you a little bit about myself. Growing up
in the town of Perth Amboy wasn't easy. Drugs and crime
were a heartbeat away. However, this did not take
control of me. I have a strong family to thank for that.
I could have easily sold drugs or robbed folks, but that
wasn't me. I wanted to make it in this hip-hop game as a
young Hispanic entrepreneur. Yeah, there are always
obstacles, but life is what you make it. Only the strong
survive in this game.
Through my road to the promise land of Hip-Hop I formed
a group called Devious Dialects that consisted of 2 dj's,
2 emcees, and an artist. That was a learning experience
in itself. Also, I've worked with Legend of Black Ruutz,
Inc. This was truly a huge influence in my life. I was
able to produce and write my first 4-song maxi-single in
1996 self titled “LOGIC”. Even greater, that same year I
released the maxi-single getting street credibility in
an instant.
Furthermore, before I meet Theory of Silent Assassins
Enterprises through K-Banger, I pretty much was paying
dues and not getting my demos complete because of fake
producers trying to jerk me. Through Theory I have been
able to complete my first album. Which is a blessing.
Also, I have met another producer by the name of Halo
Sin, which has contributed, to my project. Even greater,
I was able to get some classic guest appearances by
Swing & Theory (PHD), K-Banger, and Verbalz. Moreover,
with my new independent label, Monte Cristo
Entertainment I will be able to be in full control of my
destiny.
I am currently doing everything from running my label to
moving units to get the name out there. This upcoming
year I will be getting involved with more producers and
emcees expanding my horizons to further venture in this
hiphop game. I have linked up with Undefined (Crisis
Center Productions) who will be lacing me with the
majority of the beats on the project. Halo Sin and Rick
Mendoza will be also contribute as producers on this
project.
My new project will be a step towards the awakening of
real hiphop hitting the streets not watered down beats
and rhymes. There will also be some new artists on the
album which will bring a whole new vibe to the table. It
will be slated for release in January 2005. The project
in itself is nothing but growth in every aspect from
beginning to end.
In a nutshell that's a tip of the iceberg about myself.
As for my music it’s nothing but the realness. I don't
put up a front for nobody. If I experience something, I
write about. I write what I feel. I take your
imagination on a roller coaster of realness. Sounds
funny, but I have many angles that I take when creating
songs for listeners. I put you in a state of hip-hop
appreciation. Always more nothing less. Peace. Alvare
2004 and beyond
