The neighborhood introduced Ravenous to the genre that would become his life’s calling, Hip-hop. Ravenous learned about his talent at the age of 16 during a cipher in a neighborhood park. He states “I remember just going off the top and getting the same reaction from the crowd as some of the other mc’s that were spitting written rhymes. ” Rave’s raw talent as a freestyle rapper was evident before he even put the pen to paper. He creates clever punches and metaphors at the drop of a dime, making him not only an inspirational writer but also a battle ready mc.
