"I'm just your standard beacon of light/
I hail from the city that's never sleeping at night/
I represent those knee deep in the fight/
Who can't seem to find the wings that they need for their flight/" — TheRealNobody©

Also known as The Real Nobody... This Bronx, New York native was raised by the same music his borough gave birth to, Hip Hop. He credits his father, Thomas for having played such a vital role in his discovery of Hip Hop among other genres of music that he loves to this very day (e.g. Rhythm & Blues, Soul, Jazz and House). His rhyme writing began at the tender age of 9 when he was introduced to simple forms of poetry that he adopted and slowly started transforming into verses. In 1994, after finally being allowed to purchase music for himself, he bought an album that would drastically change his life; The Notorious B.I.G's "Ready To Die." The pain, truth and realities expressed by the late great Christopher Wallace would ultimately help guide him to releasing his own pain and life experiences in his lyrics. From that moment forward, music, and Hip Hop in particular have been the passion and love of Christian's life as an aspiring lyricist, songwriter and solo artist.

"The goal is not to become 'somebody,' the goal is to discover that you are nobody (no—body). Once you discover this for yourSelf, you will recognize that in being nobody, you are One with, and part of everybody." — TheRealNobody©
