Demtinz. 123. 4bent and so many others to live up to this dream.. We had every weekend booked. Booked without pay . We performed in every highschool .. All we needed was for u to tell us there is a freak going on somewhere even if it was in the north we would still rep. Then JMP came in ... Then Mr.Mrs sss... Then XMas fiesta .. Then we lost NAABuGGIE... The betrayals.. Disappointment ... The sabotage ... But even after that the dream didn't change .. Here I am today being honored as Creative Art Youth Icon.. Big up all who started this journey with me even if ur name is not here I still respect you... I dedicate this to NAA BUGGIE.... BUGGIE till the last breath".
