When you were a kid, what did you think you were going to be when you grew up?

In what way has your community impacted your development as a musician?
I grew up in the hood in Los Angeles California so initial impact was street driven. After seeing the world through more mature eyes I now know the affect of music on the kids. I hope to inspire kids to do the best for themselves, to believe in themselves even when things are harsh and hard. Music can teach and help release, it can influence as well. I hope my music makes my community get back to fun, love, and happiness. I guess my communities harshness made me a funster hippie. Life is too short to stress it so hard. BLOVE
