Just a young man who has a passion for music and a big dream as an up incoming rap artist with a deep love for hip hop and rap music since 90's era growing up as a kid ..which later on made me develope a vision.. a thought of expression from experiencing my life's struggles a untold story most of the local artist run away from in the underground rap/hip-hop music scene out here that sound relative the raw side of the city.. My city I'm fresh up out of Salt Lake City, Ut 801but to the out of towners might be popular known as the Mormon state. . not where I'm from where I'm from goes by a few names some call it Lake City or the lake town ..most just say The U it's home to Utes football in our state home of the Utah jazz Stockton to Malone to be exact ..but me I reside in heart of the city the gutter the bottoms lower class part nobody sees the real Salt Lake Griddy where underachieved , drugs, gang violence all what comes with low income the ghetto of the state made for us to fail home of some of the most overlooked most talented influenental realest aspiring songwriters/Rapartists living the music game will never find or get notirity for living here and wont even get a chance to make it out the only way we know how but we still holding it down showing pride in rep our state .. I'm originally known by making a name for myself as Nesto first starting buzzin' freestyling at local house partys or pretty much wherever I can I would .. til I met someone who seen the potential in me and made me really take it seriously bringing me to the studio putting me on game with this music and plugged me with the connectiions I needed to do what I found out is what I loved doing after all .. so I just rode with it he had this idea of a movement bringing 4 other young dope Artists coming together to form a collaborative tape known calling it franchize dilma back in '11 but for those might just getting familiar now doing my solo thing I added often imitated at the end i came up growing with as a artist so all together became my social media outlet name it just grew on me but I really see it more as a brand, my movement , or a statement etc something that just represent me what I'm bout and creating as a notirity for my side how i put on of the city.. made for those that get they whole style copied an bit off by weirdo rappers to get recognition for it seem to be cool straight culture volunteers in the rap game we got to deal with nowadays this new generation just as upncoming independent artists who come in the game as themseleves as trendsetters bringing originality, authenticity back to hip hop from the street where it's roots is from those Artists who worked hard on their Craft & creativity took blood sweat tears countless hours making into molding in they music came up with that gots a fresh sound that unfortunately just to be stolen by a sucka with the greateter platform giving to them in the rap game ones try to often imitate being someone they not for a image but end being still being corny as they was beore just only here to be f'n up the game by watered down trash trying to ride another rappers wave to get exposure off the next artist shine i can't stand or ever condone in not how we move it's not fair those like myself who sacrificed alot on creating music put in years of building an keeping faith trying make it with out a hand out self made went thru the trails tribulations you've delt with going up against all odds by nobody believing your vision or support , credited on being a real Independent Artists not in for fame the one's with the real talent a real voice to be heard you can understand pain felt in every one of there tracks which actua substance & has meaning behind the lyrics put into you can relate on your first empression can tell this what they are ment to do. . all it stand for and what Im trying talking about with the Often Imitated movement I represent for all people who relate not just musically but in every day life situation its bout staying true to yourself and how you express yourself in life being a rebel being a leader not those who are followers the misunderstood our society misfits that's not accepted fitting in with the rest who minds boxed in with no ambition to be who they wanna be in life for the deep thinkers not afraid to be standout wanting more than just to settle working 9-5 to achieve someone's goals and dreams instead of being a own boss seeing a bigger picture making the best out of your situation youve overcome what made you go harder I plan to be a entrepreneur with my own record Label an all other motives at the end of my career that what I'ma be on some C.E.O. businessman with all type of form of income to creat opportunity to provide for my people one day .. So on the real I hope I said enough for y'all to get to know what I'm about an a lil bout who I am and what i stand for.. I'm new to this interview not too good at this whole thing if you want to know more just listen to my music I explain it better that wayv..I grew up in a broken home with a single mom and raised faced with alot of struggles without a father figure to look up to I'm blessed to make out all I've made out from in the streets most I loved never did all cause no guidance at early age ..I'm just another story a product of my inviorment set up to lose in my community fall another stastic as a minority so it's deeper than rap to me all tho I do have fun talk my shit might seem arrogant I'm not in it for the fame I'm in for the love I got for this music it lives in me I am hip hop and still do it for people who believe in me seeing the potential in me I never could pushing me to keep going so for y'all I'ma keep continuing to be a better me and I won't stop droppin' new projects for y'all cause music really saved my life as to so many others it's a blessing to be able to have a voice thats powerful enough to get heard created in raps or rymes on a global platform that can change lifes this is my dream and I won't give up on the passion I have for what I love doing every day hopefully I can make a career out of it eventually that's the goal.. So make sure you don't sleep and get familiar with the name cause you'll have to sooner or later ya dig .. S/o to traxx24 salute to the blog in Berlin giving us artists opportunity to grow and get heard for a chance to live out there dream one day I appreciate it love keep doing ya thing ?
