Welcome to My Mind

Whatsup? I'm Zach, and this is my blog.

I'm not going to sugar-coat any of this, I love to write, but not poems or things like that. I am a rapper.

Some of my biggest influences are game-changing artists, some that you probably have never heard of. Chilish Gambino is probably my biggest role model. Look him up, he's pretty dope.

But back to the topic, why did I start to write lyrics? A couple years ago, when there was no "Twitter" and EVERYBODY, and I mean everybody, was on Facebook, kids from my highschool tried out a rapping fad.

Now keep in mind, I am from a middle-class suburban town in NY, with 90% of my school being white. Not that there's anything against that, it's just very unusal to see a sucessful white rapper, let alone a well-off-financial one.

So as I was saying, many kids were posting up videos of themselves, with midiocre bars and shitty sound quality, getting a "Like" or 2 here or there. That's when I thought....why not give it a try? If it sucks when I play it back, then I don't have to post it and embaress myself. Lets go for it.

It took me only about 10 minutes to write, 20 minutes to record, and 5 to post to Facebook.

The song was great, and I knew it. Not to sound like a cocky son of a bitch, but it was decent. I got a ton of positive feedback, and it sparked me to continue.

Now I know I'm not going to be famous, so don't say it. I do it because it's fun as hell, and if you don't like it? You're at the wrong blog son. I got 99 problems and a bitch ain't one.


Peace, Engagedd
