After my first show, and the first time I had a rehearsed performance, with my name on the top of those old school flyers we would make back in the day that was probably the first taste of knowing I wanted to full time rap. I slotted right before APE SHIT and UNDUCATI in Manchester NH at a spot called Millys Tavern. I had the flu, but I got up and straight slaughtered my set. When I was about 30 seconds from being done and I was going through my last hook, I remember looking out into the crowd (seeing quadruple from….anyways) EVERYBODY, artists and the people I opened for included, were jumping, screaming, smiling and holding drinks and blunts in the air, the music stopped and the place erupted. That was when I knew. This is it.
