Welcome to a new season with MN Music Makers. To get us started, I got to sit down and talk with a hip hop artist who has been at it for over a decade. Phil tells me about his time at Fifth Element, the hip hop record store that was run by Rhymesayers and hosted many open mics in its day. After using that as a way to test new material and stage presence, he continued to gain momentum as Chris Michael Jensen started booking him around town. Growing up a singer with his family, one of his challenges was building up the vocal technique for rapping. With plenty of experience perfecting his vocals, and a natural stage presence, Phil has proven to be a quality artist and performer. Beyond that he is also a community builder, working with other artists to help build each other up. With a couple EPs and singles under his belt, his official debut album is set to be released soon.Song list: Faith - Sun Indigo Wutz Good - The Sound Beautiful Day - Sun Indigo Sun Indigo - Live on Kare 11 American Dream - Single The Sound - The Sound All Night - The Sound Check out his site for links, psjmusic.com
