If you don't believe in me now, watch when I get rich. I'm gonna have you in the basement like a chopa," a maid, I told her. My mom has the best sense of humor because only the most vulgar shit makes her crack a smile. My household was the epitome of "tough love", run by a single mother and my older brother, we shared plenty love and little emotion. My brother, who is 11 years my senior, was nicknamed "Jest" because he would make a joke of anything, as can I. But just like him, when I mean business, I mean it from top to bottom, open to close. When I enter a room, I enter it with a smile, like my brother used to. What I've also learned is that when I'm pissed off, it's pasted on my face just like it used to be on his. For that reason, I try to keep as calm as possible -- I can't hide my emotions. I try my best to be numb as I can so that I'm not taken out of my zone every time things don't go as expected. I'm a product of the people who raised me. My mother is a hard worker with a calm demeanor, my bother was joker with a mean temper and my sister is pretty and smart with a bad attitude (who also had drawers full of everything I wanted behind the door to her room which had a DO NOT ENTER sign drawn on it in permanent marker). This is who I am -- bred from a species of independent animals who will bite you head off. That's why I am making (and will continue to make) strides in both the corporate world and the music industry. If you have not noticed, yes, I swim very well with sharks and if you watch me, you can learn how.
