Mistah Rapsey is my name..
staying underground is the experience..

I’ve been traveling since my youth searching for experiences of truth. An old soul back again to discover what I left uncovered. I love to love and live to laugh. Enrolled in a school called Knowledge of Self. Paying attention is my drug. Learning to live Life like music and flow with the rhythm, careful not to miss a beat. A renaissance man, Life is my art project. An habitual nomad, I roam to evolve. Music and cannabis are my constant companions. Interested in people, i’m always searching for my tribe. The beauty of the wilderness is the closest i’ve come to experiencing Truth.

music, graffiti, vinyl, treeplanting, & mixtapes..

Love is an Action. Love is the Answer. Love is the Movement.

Shabazz Palaces // Are you… Can you… Were you? (Felt)

One of my favorite tracks from one of the most exciting albums to drop last year. If you don’t already have Black Up by former Digable Planets member Butterfly and multi-instrumentalist Tendai Maraire then get on it.

“I woke up to it
Heaven, a light with trueness
Always a way of losing
Compelled to knew it
My body traveled
My mind waits behind the music
My crime bemuses
Relax inside my shiny blueness..”
