It says in 1st Chronicles 2:15 that King David was the 7th born. A perfect number! When were you born Davidical Artists of God? I was born December 12th, 1978. As of this lecture, that would make me 33, which is the good old age of Jesus Christ the Son of David. How cool is that?
That means that as of this lecture my 34th birthday falls on what? You guessed it, 12/12/12. The Governmental number of God’s Kingdom! That number is always mentioned concerning the original 12 Apostles and the 12 Tribes of Israel. And sometimes it’s mention in reference to the leaders of each tribe throughout the Word of God.
So when where you born and what order? Believe it or not I was born in “12 Tribes” myself. My mother’s mom’ (my grandmother) had 12 kids. I forget what order my mother is among that number but she was called out from among my uncles and aunts. My mother did not grow up with her siblings. And growing up for me was away from that environment we call the ghetto or “the hood.”
The Influence
I was however eventually drawn to the hood, but it was not the African American one on the west side of Orlando, FL. I grew up around all the Hispanic folks on the east side of Orlando, Florida called Azalea Park (we called it the Ave 436). All the cats I grew up with were either from New York, Miami, or Puerto Rico (or any one of the Spanish nations).
So if you have ever heard any of my music I sound like the New York rappers. This is in the late 80s and the early 90s. There was no Outcast back them or crunch music when I started rapping.
Nas Illmatic
I started rapping immediately after hearing the Nas Illmatic album back in 1994. Prior to that the only part of hip-hop I was involved in was dancing. We used to bump into cats in the hallway (in elementary and middle school), toss the book bags on the floor, and start doing the Hammer dance. That was when he was hot and everyone was rocking them baggy old pants. I’ll never forget that!
