I chose the name "Abyss" because i feel it best depicts the nature & character of my music. The word “Abyss” to me seems deep, the unknown, vibrant but at times dark & mysterious so i feel that best describes my lyrics & vibe. I can listen to certain songs that i have made and it brings me right back to exactly what i was gong through during that time in my life. At this point in my music career i feel that i have created a quite reputable brand & name from local from around Boston to over the net in the underground hip hop music genre. If you thumb through my catalog you will see many solo songs & many collaborative ones with MC’s that are local that come to my studio to record to MC’s all around the world that send me their vocal files that i mix. 2013 was huge for me, i landed 1st place in the Anno Domini Productions Contest with a track called “Only Way To Be” & in 2014 myself & Jon Regul took 4th place with our smash single “Came To Reign” in the same yearly contest. I have been facinated with music since a kid.  I just sincerely have a genuine love for art & any general medium that someone can express themselves through. For me growing up was not easy so i would use drawing writing songs or pretty much anything pertaining art as an escape. Being an artist runs in my dads side of the family, one cousin is a famous painter & one is a semi-famous song writer so it was inevitable for me to inherit some sort of art from being so close with them growing up. I am not your typical underground rapper. Not only do i have at least 300 songs in my repertoire”, I have recorded, mixed & mastered them all since i was 17 years old, well I’m 34 at the time of typing this so if you do the math i have been learning audio engineering & rapping for about 20 years. My mixing in itself is top tier quality and i actually built a recording studio 2 years ago so for side work i record, mix, master, produce & DJ. Yea, i do a lot. I have mixed & mastered 98% of every track you have or will ever hear me on, I’m very fussy and prefer to do my own editing. I’m not here trying to be cocky or just brag but i am here as a artist that has put thousands of hours of practicing & learning all these crafts and I just am extremely confident in the quality & integrity of my name. I grew up In Everett, Massachusetts, about 5 minutes north of Boston. Around 1997 my mom came home with this old school Packard Bell computer, she thought it would be a good idea to have this “new” thing called the internet in our home, i guess she wanted to type out documents and etc. Well, me on the other hand was thinking more of creating some music. So what i did is, I bought a entry level audio editing program called “Magix Music Maker Generation 6″ and i would write songs and record them on this little plastic mic that came with the computer. I actually still have my first songs, they sound similar to a car accident. My voice was off beat, i had no idea what a punchline was, the quality would of sounded better with a long string and a dixie cup but this part of my life was the foundation being poured.   I kept writing and kept getting better, i was recording my own music, i was making my own beats, i was adding all kinds of cool sound effects to the mixes, sampling movie clips, scratching records (moms of coarse), the whole 9. Anyone that remotely even liked hip hop i was begging them to listen to my tracks and giving them burned cd’s with scribbled marker as title packed with all sorts of stuff.   My projects has had many great featured artists such as : Tragedy Khadafi, Spit Gemz, Nine, M-DOT, Hibernation, Gravity, Dr. Voodoo, Narkotik, Arobi, Chris West, Jon Regul, Lou Showers, Mr4Twenty, Plots, Shalom, Jay Marchena, Denku, Matt Maddox, J.O.TheLastMan, Aztech, Crakd, SBO, AYOK, Rome & Rek One Discography: (2006) The All Nighter Vol. 1 (2008) The All-Nighter Vol. 2 (2012) Abyss & Jegie- Sounds From The Basement Vol. 1 (2013) Abyss & Regul- Dark Elixir (2014) Abyss- Alter-Ego (solo album) (2014) Showers & Abyss- Mosaic (2015) The All-Nighter Vol. 3 (Being Released In June 19th) Additional Mentions: (2013) 1st Place Anno Domini Productions Contest Winner (2015) 4th Place Anno Domini Productions Contest Winner (Song Featuring Jon Regul)
