The story behind the music.

Origins

New York City, 1989. A first-generation American is born in the Bronx — where he still lives, still chasing a dream.

I graduated from Monroe College with a degree in Computer Analysis, but life hasn't made things easy. I've kept pushing forward.

The Struggle

From 1996 to 2006, he lives in the Dominican Republic — after his parents and family are indicted for drug trafficking. Their choices cast a long shadow.

I was offered many opportunities tied to criminal activity. I never let my soul fall. I chose to do what's right.

Music as Therapy

Back home, the weight doesn’t lift. His own siblings turn their backs on their mother — and on a sister battling leukemia. He pays the rent, the medicine, the food. Alone.

Music is my therapy. It's the voice I use when words fail me.

The Mission

What he’s chasing was never money.

I'm chasing fame to go to war with the system — to challenge injustice, to speak for the unheard. My mission is bigger than me.

Faith

The engine underneath it all isn’t ambition.

I believe in Allah, in Judgment Day, in karma. Faith, resilience, love — helping others is what brings me peace.

Beyond the Music

There’s more on the shelf than songs. Code — SQL, CSS, HTML. Content. And a self-built method for growing food sustainably, designed for under-resourced communities.

It's stuck there — not for lack of vision, but lack of funding. It could change lives. It's still waiting.

Family

Above everything: a daughter and a son.

They're my reason to keep dreaming, to keep fighting, to never give up.
