HE HAS ALWAYS BEEN A TALENTED YOUNG MAN SINCE HIS EARLY DAYS. ENTERING ALL TYPES OF ART CONTEST PLACING FIRST EVERY TIME AND PLACING FOR THE GIFTED PROGRAMS IN ELEMENTARY THRUOGH HIGH SCHOOL.

JUST WHEN HE THOUGHT EVERYTHING WAS LINING UP, HIS LIFE WAS DESTROYED BY A CATOSTROPHIC STORM, HURRICANE “KATRINA”. HE LOST EVERYTHING, HIS HOME, HIS CAR, HIS WRITTEN MUSIC, AND MOST OF ALL HIS FOCUSED LIFE.

KEVIN”KAGEOUS”SANTIAGO WANTS A LOT OUT OF LIFE. MORE THAN ANY NORMAL INDIVIDUAL WOULD WANT. HE BELIEVES THAT THROUGH TIME AND PATIENCE ANYTHING CAN BE ACHIEVED. HIS MAIN FOCUS IS HIS MUSIC AND THAT’S WHAT CARRIES HIM FROM DAY TO DAY. HE HOPES THAT ONE DAY HE’LL MAKE IT TO THE SPOTLIGHT SO THAT HE CAN PROVIDE FOR HIS FAMILY. BY KEEPING HIS HEAD STRAIGHT AND HIS MIND FOCUSED THERE’S PRETTY MUCH NOTHING THAT CAN HOLD HIM BACK, WITH THE EXCEPTION OF GOD. IN THE WORDS OF MR. KEVIN “KAGEOUS” SANTIAGO, “I WILL MAKE IT!” [indent]
