Bio

Everyone has a passion in life, but how far will that passion take you. Foul Al knows exactly were he wants his passion to take him, to the top. This shows through in his vehemence zealous for his music. Born in Harlem and raised in Far Rockaway, NY, Foul can still envision the times his aunt would turn up the eight track player with Michael Jackson’s “Off The Wall” playing. This helped to embed the love and appreciation for music he has today. Foul Al’s musical inspiration goes well beyond those days; he has been influenced by artist such as Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder , Billy Holiday, L.L. Cool J, M.C. Lyte, Nas and the lyrical and business mind of Jay-z, just to name a few. For the past two years Foul has learned the true meaning of determination; his mother -in-law being his inspiration, as she fights cancer with the determination of a true warrior. When music started to look grim she has been the cheerleader to push him to go on. Her persistence helped Foul Al develop the family epic “Scales of Life.”
