Being gay & being raised in a religious household is not a great match. Dis fact tends to continually try and persecute & condemn me for my choice of lifestyle as aunties and everybody else in da world, dat have no room to run they damn mouth, always got some negative, judgmental shit to say cause misery want my company. Da devil is a liar!!!

Bio (Continued):

They rather believe a lie then da truth and know good and well its God HISSELF dats blessing me with everything I have from da knowledge to da wisdom, to da woman in my life & my career.
 
Da fact dat all my life I've been on my own as far as makin da decisions dat would impact my life in da most crucial way. Mama use to say brush ya damn teeth, but neva really had time to show me how to do it by example andso I did da best I could, but could nobody keep me from them damn Caramello bars. They resulted in me having 11 cavities at 1 ti'me and I wasnt even 11 years old.


Yea, I remember forging my daddy's (my granddaddy Butterball; my grandparents raised me).signature on my report cards as he taught me how to sign his name when we use to go to da bank and cash his work checks. I would sign his name for him, count da money, and take however much I wanted out...not pushing it too far though.
 
I learned how to drive when I was 5 years old cause we use to take my grandmother to work. She cooked in restaurants all her life and usually had to be to work by 5am, so I would go wit my daddy to drop her off. He let me drive in da empty parking lot for bout a hour or so then we headed back home and got me ready for school. Dis sounds like ah perfect life for ah spoiled lil brat, but dat wasnt da case at all. For some reason I have turned out to be everything dat da mases say aint shit, bound for hell. Religiously speaking, I was never supposed to make it dis far. Hell, even in da streets, I was always da odd ball, soft as cotton, slangin dope in da strip clubs an' shit...jus playin wit my life, cause I wasnt payin them niggas bac for da dope I was frontin...fuck dat shit!!!
 
How do you go from dat to dis...no love; and, no disrespect to all my dope boys cause I understand!!! But, in my opinion, being without love is da equavelent of being dead. Not like dying and goin to heaven and hell (which is where we already living on dis EARTH) but, da living dead: you been blessed wit dis beautiful life and dont know what to do wit it or thinkin dis was all ah mistake and why??? No love man...I feel da pain. And so, dats whats gona bring us togehter, dat common void.
 
I'm here to tell you dat life is jus wha chu make it. Stop feeling like you dont have nothing to look forward to cause people look at chu funny cause you dont look like you fit in or you dont talk da way they do. I've been there all my ife and I'm realizing more and more what a leader is and how leadership is perfected, cause its not ablout competition or whose da best. U feel me??? I relalize dis is a lonely road...da road to success, happiness, peace, joy, all da attributes of God. Everybody will turn their back on you befo its said and done, but there's no excuses cause, again, life is wha CHU make it!!!
 
And so, how I get thru it, how I continue to maintain and keep it movin on all da haterz and fakas??? I put my trust in da very ONE everybody claI'm I'm not worthy to have love me and serve: GOD.
 
I know who am I am and know dat God loves me man, straight up. Da word of God says dat God is married to da backslidda...look beyond da words and feel da love people. Now's da time as we go into a new era dat WE da PEOPLE have control ova. Da power has been shifted, I'm here to claim and maintain mine and I know I am who I say I am. I have gone from being da tail to da head in a matter of 29 years as of August 3rd. I love my life and I love da people dat have come to my aid to assist wit my vision to take ova da world like da Jheri Curl all in da name of love.


On The Best Eva Written... Outkast
I jus had dis Outkast instrumental CD laying around since like 06. It done been tossed from here to there and bac hea again...lol Ayhow, Yo! Majesty had jus signed wit Domino Records and received ah fat ass lump. So some niggas I knew in da hood had ah somewhat legit studio in da area and I invested like $2500 into em to help save em from eviction and shit. Instead of them giving me da money bac, I was jus like let me get $2500 worth of studio time for a rate of 4hours/$120. We did ah lil agreement and shit; andso I had all dis studio time available but I didnt really have dat much material to take up so much studio time.
 
I hollad at Blaque Pop and JERZY bout doin da project cause I already knew they was gona kill it. I mean they not afraid to confess they love for God and how important HIM comin first is in spite of how they live. They dont judge me either for da way I live and so, we vibe and da niggas' is real real. Pop declined and me and JERZY contiuned to move forward. I tole him dis was gona be a project dat will depict da way we have been perceived and treated by everybody... society period and dat include family, friends, and enemies. I also believe dat dis project will take me to da depts of hip hop, da very roots...legendary status baby!!!
 
JERZY took it for what it is and did his thang as a man of God in dis new age. God said in da word dat He gona rein upon all flesh thru His Spirit, so who are you to say who da hell God cant use??? Da devil is ah liar and da truth aint in em!!! Dis project is for everybody and tells who me and JERZY are as somebody and da fact and truth still remains: God first comes in da name of love thru compassion, not condemnation!!! Start encouraging ya fellow brethren instead of beatin em down all da damn time.
 
These, us, people of God, why is it so inconceivable dat God cant love me and dat I have no chance becuase I'm gay??? Is it really dat big of a deal or is it jus so nasty to you hyprocrites dat its not worthy to be seen as it is what it is and its beautiful too??? God is love and I believe dat Reverend Run. My question is how you and Hip Hop, Chuck D, gone see me Shunda K! It's something I've been thinkin bout more and more as I enter da world of Hip Hop thru dis project. I have a lot of respect for what everyone has contributed to da cause and I'm here to do da same. I cant be afraid andso I see Yo! Majesty as da platform dat I needed to be empowered to embark on dis great mission to restore da world to Christ thru my talents as a lyricist in dis form: HIP HOP!!!
 
I gotta give ah shot out to my pastor, Pastor Steve as I thank God for dat man. I had a hard time believing dat God could use me because I'm gay. There are some things dat I've spoken about dat have contributed to me now believing dat dat is in fact possible and I have to tell da people what I know and believe to be da truth, encouraging them through faith in our own words...da languages of da hood, da streets, all my fellow gay brethre...God love all us!!!
 
Dis is fa my niggas and my bitches. I would neva call ah woman ah bitch unless she wanted me too...lol, naw I'm jus playin.
 
But, on da real, I am encouraged and I have been pushed ova da edge at dis very moment as I write dis. No pity parties, oh hell to da nawww...
 
I come in da name of da love, knowing who I am..."The Most Wanted...Cause So Many Niggas Fronted" "The Best To Eva Came, Grande Dame" and yall dont even know DAT GIRL yet, but you will as I introduce you to my reality of being Divinely Attributed To God In Real Life no matter what chall thank!!!
 
No offense to nobody...
 
Bless & enjoy The Best Eva Written...Outkast which is my first mixtape from my series "The Best Eva Written..."
