About Att3ntion

Songwriter/Rap Artist from Fort Wayne Indiana. Born 4/28/1984. Music fan since the age of 5. Started with Bluegrass music and around the age of 8 started listening to Kriss Kross, moved on to (expired link). and Tupac around the age of 11. Now I enjoy creating my own music and supporting other underground artists. My major influences in rap are all the artists that were out between 97'-02' Throughout childhood Momma did her best, but we were poorer then the rest. Still a starving artist. I started writing poetry in 96'/97'. A friend taught me to freestyle in 97'. Started to write from my flows. I would spend all day in school writing. Met a few people in 00' who believed in me and encouraged me to continue with rap. Had local invites to go to studios in 01'/02', but I didn't have the confidence/didn't feel i was ready. Ready Now. Wrote my first songs to a Beat in 02'. Took until 04'/05' to record them. I wrote 4. My first 4 songs are/were 1. Threw-Out 2. Blind to the Signs 3. The Message and 4. Welcome to the Fort in that order. You can find them at (expired link) . I have always struggled to provide and hold down a job due to Life Circumstances and Mental Health Issues. In 09' i got a gift in the form of a computer, mic, interface,and demo version of Pro Tools. Which happens to be what I record on still today. Poverty is no joke. I started to download beats and make songs. Self taught with a little help from a couple Youtube videos...... Thanx. I have always focused on life and putting food on the table first, but have slow and steady developed my talents in music. I record a few songs a year. Since 09' to date I have a total of 34 songs.... I think.... at least that. Notable mention that in spring of 15' I pushed myself to write and record 9 songs in 11 days. Out of that came the songs 1. Time We Chill 2. One Day 3. Come In Heaven 4. How Do I Cope. I have been through many ups and downs with music and life and have realized that you cannot be in the music without help from others in one form or another. There is so much that goes into making the music, beats, marketing, developing the talent, vocals ........ So much. 16' I recorded 1. The Sound colaberated on 2. Cannot be Me w/ Reverbnation mention CoBra Lee...... S/O.......also made 3. Honest to God 4. Yeah I and 5. Grab Me My Ones. Which brings us current. Now I am working on a new project and have released the intro song of H3av3n's (expired link). I have continued to work with what God has given me and am blessed to be a part of the music that I have loved all these years. I have spent my life learning from other artists. Some have called me a human jukebox for the fact of how many songs I know. So, that's a little bout me. I am on this website to further my career, make money and collaborate with other artists.
