Timzo
I've been Writing and Producing for over
half of my life. There have been times where even I have considered myself to
be 'too different'. I grew up as an outcast. I never did fit into any groups or
clicks; from a child all the way to Adulthood. The uniqueness has a tendency to
play out through the music. It's not so much that I try to be different; I was
chosen to be this way. My real frustration with the Rap Genre is the fact that
it all sounds the same. Everybody's following everybody else. There's almost no
passion or life left, because the essence of the art is often sacrificed for
riches and fame. I've been rejected for being a different Artist; from the
Streets to the Church. So much so, that I decided years ago to walk away from
the Art, rather than compromise my uniqueness and my passion for the Art
itself. Well, it seems I've been called back. I can't fight it anymore. There
are some things that need to be addressed, and I've been called to take a
stand. So here we go. Who's my target audience? You. This album will speak to
generations; from the youth who desperately need a more positive image to look
up to, to the older individuals who've never even listened to or respected rap
before. My endeavor is to change the minds and lives of those who listen.
Closure {klow-zhur}
is something we all need before we can really move forward in life. Everyone
has to deal with getting closure on some level. On this album, you will hear me
dealing with specific issues I've had to face in the last 5 years, as well as
some of the situations I've witnessed others face. You will hear rejection,
bitterness, frustration, inspiration, and encouragement all in the same
project. This is not your ordinary Rap album, and is therefore not for the
ordinary listener. This is Life Music.
