“I REPRESENT HIP-HOP IN IT’S PUREST FORM, INCLUDING THE 4 ELEMENTS, MC’ING, BREAKING, DJ’ING AND GRAFFITI FOR SURE! I’VE BEEN INVOLVED IN GRAFFITI AND HIP-HOP FOR 17 YEARS AND HAVE LOVED IT ALL MY LIFE! I LOVE TO CREATE HIP-HOP IN VARIOUS FORMS, SUCH AS HARDCORE, POLITICAL, LYRICALLY CHALLENGING, BATTLE RAPS, POETIC FLOWS, CONSCIOUS AND POSITIVE HIP-HOP, LATIN AND EXPERIMENTAL”.

AFTER THE BREAK UP OF “GRAFFIC APHLIKTIONZ”, A GROUP CONSISTING OF HIMSELF (AS THE SICK ONE) AND HIS COUSIN ‘THE RAGE’ (who went on to pursue a career as vocalist ’Bleeding Lung’ in the popular So. Cal. metal band SANGRE), GREY MATTER HAS RELEASED 1 SOLO ALBUM ENTITLED “IMMACKULATE MISCONCEPTIONS” COMPLETELY DIGITAL, SINCE HE BEGAN PURSUING MUSIC IN 1998. “IMMACKULATE MISCONCEPTIONS” WAS HIGHLY POLITICALLY CHARGED, FULL OF HARDCORE RAP TRACKS (SOME OF WHICH COULD BE CALLED HORRORCORE SUCH AS ‘SUPERNATURAL’) AND SOME VERY EXPERIMENTAL TRACKS WITH COLLABORATIONS FROM DTS, OKIRASUN AND DOLPHINBRAIN FROM EVOLVE MUSIC. DUE TO LACK OF DISTRIBUTION, IT WAS NOT WIDELY HEARD, ALTHOUGH MUCH OF THE MUSIC IS STILL BEING PLAYED ON SITES SUCH AS MYSPACE, SOUNDCLICK AND AMONGST FANS IN THE INLAND EMPIRE REGION OF SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA.

CURRENTLY GREY MATTER IS WORKING ON SEVERAL PROJECTS INCLUDING THE CREATION OF HIS OWN COMPANY RYME (Ruben Young Entertainment
