Bio

Reasun is a simple man," i dont need much to maintain happiness but to simple minded people i may seem complex, i am a patient person but have low tolerance for bullshit." Love it or hate it he can care less either way he'll live for me and my family . When asked, what do you feel about music and vegas Reasun replied," theres not really a standard nor support system when it comes to vegas. Most artist are out for self and local radio station dont show us any love. like the south for example put each other on for the bigger picture instead of acting like crabs in a barroll, they support each other and made mainstream america pay attention." Knowing that Reasun is one of the Front Runners for Vegas, I asked how does the current condition of hip hop make you feel especially living in Las Vegas. He said," it makes me sick to be real , you see i love music and the direction its taken here in the past few years is disgusting to me , in my eyes hiphop was more than whats presented to you now , it was a PSA (public service announcment) for the middle and lower class so to speak. and i feel life aint a party so why do we dwell on that aspect so much , its forcing the richness of the art to dwindle and be put into a box. freedom of expression never had bounderies so why should hip hop." When asked what do you hope to gain from your artistry, he rplied," the satifation of being heard, everybody wants to be rich but for me id rather be weathy , you know sense of self , pride of accomplishment ,knowing that years ago i set out to do somthing many people said i never would and i did it ... well. " Reasun's style of music sets him apart for the majority. He Raps and sings so i was intrsted to know what inspired him to break in as both knowing that the industry will try to make him choose , he said " In short, i know everybody has a story so heres mine. Ive been singing since I could walk. As a child, i started out in the Jr chior at church. I started on the piano at the age of five just simple chords. My father is a jazz musician on the sax so he kinda 'jo jacksoned' me. He taught me to play the sax as well at the age of nine. All through Jr high i was in the band doing my thing. When i reached high schol i found other things i was good at like most do, like football basketball and track n field. I soon after started to Rap when my cousin introduced me to the art of freestylin. By then i was hooked but i wasnt jz out the gate i had to learn my craft and fine tune my expressions. By time i reached my lat teensi knew i didnt want to do anything else. I became a father in the mist of persuing the dream so i lost allot of time that i wont get back but i dont reget any choices i made cause if i dont practice what i preach im no good to myself nor my music. As i evolved as a man my hunger took controll of my destiny and i put amany of things to the side to chase what ment the most to me.I left allot of friends behind that wasnt on the level and allot of relationships fell to the waistside. So now before you i stand alone, a rapper, singer, producer, musician, songwriter, and engineer. The rest doesnt matter, cause of coars ive done things im not proud of but at this point its irrelavent. Pain, hartach, health problems,death, deciet, dishonor, blissfull ignorance.... none of that compares to the joy i feel when i nurish myself with music, and to share it with you is beyond emotional comprehention 'Time distortes amany a mens perception of truth. I REFUSE TO BE MOVED.'
