About Me
It started in 2009-10 when I first heard “Forgot About Dre” in New York over the summer. From then on I was obsessed with rapping Eminem lyrics. Fast forward 2-3 years and Capp himself put me onto a Las Vegas rapper “Dizzy Wright” and from then on it was too hard not to emulate Dizzy Wright. I wanted to become my own rapper and that’s where the hippy came from. Apex hippy. Most high of the hippies. The peak. I started off going to the studio because I was too impatient to mix my own songs. In 2021 I took the time to learn the basics of how to mix my own songs. Which lead me to create my second project “Days colliding Part 1” on July 27th. It’s on all DSPs so go check that out anytime anywhere. I’m working on part 2 soon. If anyone would like to collaborate my email is apexhip24@yahoo.com or you can fill out the form below.
