 Well, its been a long time coming and its finally here! After living in Los Angeles all my life except for a year in Beijing, I'm moving my digs to Sao Paulo, Brazil. Its kind of surreal, but I know its going to be good and its something I have to do. I notice that a lot of people right now are busy embarking on new projects, new relationships, and a new life which is more fulfilling than what they were doing in the past. This is definitely what I'm doing!
I have too many things to say to post here, but I would just like to thank all the homies that have supported over the years including DJ Audio1, ERS-ONE, DJ Shiro, DDUB (who put me up on the deep reggae-dancehall cuts), Juan PVK, DJ Slyten & Des, Dan aka MC Provoked, HIBIKILLA & Mani-chan, DOW JONES, RAW & Kemst, General Malice & Sara, all PDX Lodubs crew, Mohan, Pete Lee, Miss Imajeri & Angelo, Tom & Kathleen from Label Networks, AJ 'Action' Jackson, Susan aka Lil Dragon, my Bangkok homies Tirah & Margie, Erina from the IE, Senshin Sangha & Kinnara Taiko, the old and now disbanded DB crew (now doin their thing worldwide), the old China EAP crew, my old JANM work crew (Lil' Tokyo WHUT), the Otis dungeon crew, Sherwin aka Sonny B, Miss Borrah Jackson, and last but not least my parents who have supported me all these years.
I'd have to say that the last couple years have not been easy, but sometimes change even positive change is what we're most afraid of. I definitely feel like I've been through the roughest part and am finally crusin downhill. In my last hours as a fulltime Los Angeles resident I'm feelin more LA pride and am definitely gonna bring that to all my projects in Brazil. From the Dogtown Z-Boys, to the Eastside Cholos, Southbay Buddhaheads, hardcore sk8punks, chilled out rudebwoys, we definitely are originators of culture here in LA. I was born & bred here, sh*t I got red taco sauce runnin in my veins! So I can't help but REPRESENT LOS every day I'm inna Brazil. Definitely keep in touch and lets keep movin forward in the 08!
