Biography
At eleven A$E was first inspired by the sounds of Kris Cross and Snoop Dog. Listening to bay artist like E-40, Three Times Crazy and other artist like Bone thugs in Harmony and West coast legend Tupac motivated him to rap. As a teen his lyrics were always aggressive and a little before his time. This led him to his first deal at fifteen with a local record label in Oakland. Under the label, DEA records, he wrote with no assistance Urban Cinema. The project caused a stir but due to issues with the label no progression was made. After finishing Job Corp he then makes Vegas his new home. Still doing what he loves he has appeared on many local mix tapes and local albums in Las Vegas. Now ready to do music his way he has released Money Motivated which is inspired by the glitz and glamour of Vegas and the grimy game and swagger from Oakland. His sound is a mixture of classic West coast with hot punch lines and laid back smooth delivery that glides on the beat. He is ready to bring a fresh new sound to the West coast.
