Creative, Authentic, Timeless.
Many words can describe the artistry that poet / rap artist / visual artist OneHunnidt creates, but he rather you not categorize his talents with any boundaries.
The Houston based curator and composer would prefer you listen, have a drink and enjoy the ride as he shares his world over beats, stages, tee shirts and canvas.
Pain can be seen as a driving force behind the most brilliant of artists, as life experiences create the window which lights the views they give you to their soul. For OneHunnidt, initially beginning his star trek as a gifted poet and designer, it would be the death of his younger brother that would forever alter his path (OneHunnidt's brother Jj was killed in a shooting in Houston February 2010 and was mentioned on Drake's hit single "Miss Me" featuring Lil Wayne in the line, "Forever in our Hearts. Jj, love ya boy") .
Fueled with passion, Hunnidt began turning his prose into rhymes and cadences over beats, resulting in the therapeutic Keep it 100; a poignant project chronicling the demise of a poet and the birth of an artist.
Today, OneHunnidt is fueled purely by confidence and ambition as the tragedy that spawned his first project gave way to reveal a talented, driven and lyrically impressive young artist. Having found his niche, he has gone on to win a number of accolades. In a deep pool of talent within his home town, he easily remains afloat both for his lyrical capabilities, as well as his brash honesty, and engaging persona.
In OneHunnidt's words, "I want to be one of the few that hold true to the essence of what Hip Hop was in the beginning era. This is not a fade or just entertainment. This is a lifestyle. This is what blood, sweat and tears sound like on wax. This is what fun and anger look like on stage.
