Highly tuned, energetic, and relentless is nothing short of this newly emerging Atlanta based rapper. With a classic flow and melodic sound, Alpha 23 blends muscianship, creativity and tradition. Forming a base around true authentic hip-hop, his latest releases like “Tropicana” and “Carma Sutra” has more hits under his belt than he can count.
Born in New York, with Nigerian roots, Alpha moved to Atlanta at the age off 11. As a boy he was influenced by poetry and groups like NWA, Two Live Crew, and Jay-Z- real Hip-Hop. For him poetry is an art, one that creates an influence in sound, feeling, and vision. He believes that if you are a true artist, you are always listening to other artist and you’re always looking to evolve. Whether it be at a show, or lyrically, your studio performance, music videos, how you prepare and craft your art-its all poetry.
If there is only one thing you need to know about Alpha, it is this — “I believe great writing explains your passion. It is what you are influenced by, in which then becomes your thoughts, and then becomes your writing and you’re writing is then what is true to you.”
Music is certainly an influence and force in his life. It is his intent to inspire and enlighten individuals with a collaborative, logical and artful approach that reflects his passions and adds goodness to the world, just as he was inspired.
