POKAFASE INK: "Quote:Unquote": BIO BLOG 2 - For those who read the Cliff's Notes, I present: LONG STORY SHORT (the basics, a little braggin', a little name-droppin', etc....)

WELCOME TO "QUOTE:UNQUOTE" THE OFFICIAL POKAFASE BLOG!

This is the middle stall in the last rest area bathroom on the information highway....you never know what will be on the wall, but it will most certainly be entertaining.

That being said, I am POKAFASE (yes, in all caps everytime). Welcome to my blog. Truth is, I shouldve done this ages ago, but as cliche would have it, "Better late than never". ("but never late is better" - Drake) Congratulations and welcome again! You've stumbled across my headquarters. EVERYTHING you've ever wanted to download, purchase from, or know about POKAFASE, EMPIRE (formerly the League Of Kings), the ultra-classified P.H. Project, and a select few, handpicked, incredibly talented, emcees will be right here at your fingertips from this day forward. In addition I will be your guide, offering intelligent commentary as well as ignorant-ass opinion on a wide variety of subjects.

I plan on having a good time with this blog shit so buckle up.

(Oh yeah, PARENTAL DISCRETION IS ADVISED, I believe devoutly in free speech and I dont pull many punches.)

Now there are only a few things you NEED to know and they are as follows:

-I DON'T apologize in advance. (why? It's simple....I say what I mean.)

-You DON'T have to like me, agree, nor empathize when I'm bitching; you do, however, have to respect me. ("Respect given is respect due, and I expect to respect you." -POKAFASE)

-You DON'T have to read this blog. (Though it is GREATLY appreciated.)

and finally....

You DO have to have a good time, an open mind, and an appreciation for musical excellence.

THANK YOU FOR PAUSING FOR A SECOND TO STEP IN TO MY WORLD. ( I really can't say it enough, THANKS)

Sincerely,

POKAFASE

BIO BLOG 2 - For those who read the Cliff's Notes, I present: LONG STORY SHORT (the basics, a little braggin', a little name-droppin', etc....)

Romey Rome, M-E-T-H-O-D Man, and....

I was half of the ground-breaking group KNOW QWESTION, a member of the TEN COMMANDMENT, the ASSOCIATES,and the LEAGUE, and a current member of the supergroup EMPIRE.

I am the first solo, male, hip-hop artist to sign a major recording contract from Arizona (Artist Direct Records 2001).

I have shared the stage with EVERYONE but Tupac and Jay-Z. (almost, but not quite, LITERALLY)
From 50cent to Lil Wayne to Ludacris, back to Diddy and T.I., on over to Nas, Eminem, Outkast, and even with the Notorious B.I.G. and Naughty By Nature, to name a few.

I transcend genres; just ask Insane Clown Posse, Phunk Junkeez, Kottonmouth Kings, Chronic Future, Incubus, Authority Zero, Fred Green, Collide, and a several other crazy muthaphuckas I've had the pleasure of rockin with.

I've spat and gained the acknowledgement and respect of legends. GANGSTARR, Rakim, Sugar Hill Gang, WuTang, Kurtis Blow, and Kool G Rap, again to name just a few.

I've done music with Next, Royce 5'9", Dawn Richard (Diddy Dirty Money/Danity Kane), Mase, Empire, Chronic Future, Phunk Junkees, Kokane, Bink, Warren G, Proof, Scot Storch, and the list goes on.

I've partied with Papa Roach, EVE, Phunk Junkeez, D12, and Linkin Park and a plethora of some of the most notorious personalities in the game.(And they all GO HARD!)

I've ciphered with Guru, Royce 5'9", Hannibal Leq, Supernatural, Proof, FlossGenius, Immortal Technique, LIFE, Xzibit, Mega Man-dretti, Rass Kass, and all of the rest of your favorite rappers.(yes....him too, whoever it is SMARTASS!)

I also know radio. I worked for KKFR Power 92.3/98.3 for not quite 5yrs as an on-air personality....

....and well....I've done a bunch of other shit that you'll learn about as you follow me on this first-hand, daily account of the "almost famous".

(follow me now)

Long story short story long....I'm the real deal.

WE'll get in to the particulars of my music, and try to answer the proverbial quetsions
early on, so that we can get yall up to speed a.s.a.p.!

You know questions like:

"Why aren't you ON and as big as ANYBODY out there?!"

"What's up with the group?!"

"When's your new shit dropping?!"

and my personal favorite.... "What did say on that one song, you know that one part where you go....?"

That should be plenty of info to, at least, get us aquainted. Anything else you wanna know, I'm sure will come up....JUST READ THE DAMN BLOG! (you probably ask questions during the movie too, don't you?!) LMAO!
