StillmaticSteph is a student of the Hip Hop culture. His first exposure to authentic Hip Hop was in the mid 90’s when a neighborhood friend put a dubbed 36 Chambers tape in his Walkman. He quickly fell in love with the 5 elements of Hip Hop and made friends with a Bay Area b-boy crew to get a better understanding of all the elements. He was often ostracized by the majority of his peers growing up for not being a fan of radio or gangster rap and would often get into heated debates over what music would get played in 6th period art class. This would serve as fuel to further his passion on supporting the real. 25 Plus years later and it’s still the center of his universe.
