As a teenager, I.D., used music as an escape. An escape into creating a more vibrant and loud reality where all his focus was on manipulating sounds and words, and enhancing his knowledge of music. Growing up with music around the household, definitely did not disappoint in adding to his musical explorations. The love of sound started off with listening to Classic Rock, although he is known for creating music in the Rap and Hip Hop genre, I.D. still loves to play some old classics from time to time, especially when it comes to instruments. After so many years, it’s safe to say a deep appreciation of sound art and musical instruments is embedded in his existence. Not many know that the rap artist is also a multi-instrumentalist. Mastering instruments such as the guitar and drums, just to name a few of I.D.’s favorite instruments… was the first serious step he made into exploring the music industry. Following the divorce of his parents, a definite life-impacting event for a 13 year old, was the final push for removing the duct tape from his mouth… For freeing the words from his creative mind, and sharing them with the world… Infamous for using personal content in his writings, as I.D. refers to his music as being “my identity”, the artist shares his creative stories through rap and hip hop. A few years ago, when approached by longtime music producer friend, Keyloh, who hoped to sign I.D. onto his at-the-time, newly founded independent record label, Loud Reality Records, I.D. flipped the script by partnering with Keyloh. I.D. has developed and started producing in addition to writing music. I.D. hopes to inspire those who listen to his music and rejuvenate Hip Hop music with genuine content.
