Metaphaurus

Where in the world are you located?

I currently live in Santa Clarita, California.

What was your favorite past time when you were young?

My favorite past time was either playing my game boy color or listening to my iPod.

What was the very first CD you remember acquiring as a kid?

Avenged Sevenfold’s “Waking the Fallen”. I had a phase.

What was the first concert or performance you ever attended?

My first concert experience was a Drunken Tiger show at the Wiltern.

At what age did you begin to take music seriously?

I started taking music seriously at 22 because that’s when I quit drinking & started getting my life together.

If you had the chance to play one of your pieces to the ENTIRE world, what song would you choose?

If I had to pick any of my songs for y’all to hear it’d definitely be Kimchi. 

Where did you find the inspiration for this particular track and what is the meaning behind the song?

It’s a remix of Action Bronson’s “Durag Vs Headband” and the whole idea behind the song was that I was tired of recording battle raps so I wanted a song that was light hearted/funny but still part of my culture, so I decided to write “Kimchi”.

What do you think about the state of the music industry today and how would you like to see it change?

I think it’s great. There are so many talented & creative artists nowadays that Hip Hop doesn’t have one sound anymore. There are so many types & hybrids that are being born out of innovation and that’s really how a creative art form should be progressing.

What is one issue in the world that you would like to see change in your lifetime?

I wish people be less selfish; myself included. There are some days I wished we would support instead of envying & taking from one another.

What current projects are buzzing and what future projects do we have to look forward to from you?

I have a song called “Damned” I’m working on that’s going to be released on Apple Music & Spotify sometime this Summer.

Where can we find you on social media?

You can find me @metaphaurus on Facebook, Instagram, SoundCloud & YouTube.

Is there anything else you would like the world to know about you?

I constantly get bored, meaning you won’t hear me sticking to one style very long. Creative Versatility is my goal.
