It’s been an incredible honor to work with the legendary #ChuckD in a number of meaningful projects over the years:
• He provided digital distribution for my music through RCS Music
• Designed two EP covers for my projects
• Contributed an official press statement for my 2013 release A Struggle for Human Rights
• Gave permission for me to sample his voice on the track “His Name Is…”
• Personally presented my EP T.H.E.Y.
• Recorded the intro for my EP Electrify The Masses
• Invited me to headline a private Chuck D event alongside Lucky I Am of Living Legends in Ventura, CA
• Granted studio access at Castaway Studios in Ventura
• Sent me an autographed Public Enemy hoodie and provided VIP backstage passes to two Prophets of Rage shows
• Retweeted and supported hundreds of posts featuring my music, videos, and updates
• Received a personal letter from Leonard Peltier thanking him for his continued support
• Invited me to host my own radio show on Rap Station, Thursdays at 8 PM
• Engaged in hundreds of emails with me about creative direction, strategy, and long-term artist development

At one point there were even discussions about developing me as an opening act for Public Enemy on select tour dates. Unfortunately, the pandemic hit, and plans shifted amid changes within the group at the time.

Above all, I carry deep gratitude for the mentorship, collaboration, and belief Chuck D showed in my work. Experiences like these don’t just shape an artist—they shape the person you become.
