Hip Hop Does not need “change” but it needs the reaffirmation that emcee’s like me will continue to exist

My name is (Ibn Orator) born and raised within the city confines of New Haven CT. My father came to the U.S from Trinidad and Tobago and my mother was born here in the United States. Im 23 years of age with an old soul that has always been incongruous to my youth so growing up in this generation was quite difficult. When i was 19 years old New Haven (in particular the street i lived on) was becoming more and more violent by the minute. Hip Hop sort of creeped its way into my life as a catharsis in times of tumult and It wasn’t up until i was 22 years of age when i decided that the pursuit of Wisdom was Paramount to ongoing change. My Development as an artist is a direct result of what i’ve been exposed to. i have finished my first EP/CD called “Brand New Eyes [Vat in Perspective] which will have 8 tracks of my most close Analysis/Thoughts and feelings of our shared world
