Yeah, this LeiriKaL. I started rapping 96', 97'. I had a group, worked with a lot of other people; you know but eventually went solo. I been from place to place trying to make it happen, you know what I'm saying city to city. I got wit my [expletive] Dee, he put everything together, his brother Ishmael laid the tracks and we did it as a team thang, Bad Influence 4 real. A lot of obstacles came but all attempts with hopes to make us fail did nothing but motivate us more. I grew up basically on the North Side of Racine, WI and I'm in my 20's now. I think as far as the rapping goes I incorporate a lot of personal experiences in the songs that I write, but I try to keep everything universal. It's definitely a hood thang, and most of the songs tend to come from the mind of the underdog. I got a strong sense of love for the lower class, and the have-nots… Struggle 2 Maintain it took really no time at all to put it down, as far as the vocals and all, the whole nine. Right off top everything is real, far as lyrically I'm not just saying [expletive] with hopes it sounds good when I rap it. Whatever I say is something I truly believe in, or this is how it was or how it is, and that's how Bad Influence rolls. , its hot [expletive], and new [expletive] for all you hardcore fans of real [expletive], the beats are hella dope and it's a full package, cope it yourself…I'm LeiriKaL and I'm a Bad Influence, peace…
