HELLO STEEMIT COMMUNITY, MY NAME IS ƒORTÉ. BORN & RAISED IN COMPTON, CA. I'M EXCITED TO JOIN THE STEEMIT COMMUNITY, MY BEST FRIEND @VERBAL-D INTRODUCED ME TO THE ENTIRE CONCEPT OF ONLINE MONEY AKA CRYPTOCURRENCY AND THE REVOLUTIONARY ASPECTS OF A DECENTRALIZED BLOCKCHAINED SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORM THAT REWARDS ITS USERS IN MANY WAYS AND CHANGES LIVES. I HAVE HEARD NOTHING BUT AMAZING THINGS ABOUT STEEMIT.COM AND THE CREATIVE AND INTELLIGENT COMMUNITY HERE. I AM STILL BRAND NEW TO EVERYTHING STEEMIT AND CRYPTOCURRENCY RELATED, SO FEEL FREE TO CONNECT WITH ME AND SHARE WISDOM.
A QUICK VIDEO DOING WHAT I DO BEST, PLEASE ENJOY THE MUSIC
TO TELL YOU A LITTLE ABOUT MYSELF, I AM A HONOR GRADUATE ALUMNUS OF SAN FRANCISCO STATE UNIVERSITY (SFSU). I MAJORED IN BROADCASTING ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATION ARTS (BECA) WITH A FOCUSED MINOR IN BUSINESS MARKETING. MY MUSIC REPRESENTS REAL HIP HOP TO THE FULLEST. I PLAN TO REPRESENT THE PEOPLE BY NOT HAVING TO DEGRADE WOMEN, FALL INTO HURTFUL STEREOTYPES OR RAP ABOUT MURDERING PEOPLE. IT WILL BE A PLEASURE TO DISPLAY MY TALENTS AND THOUGHTS TO THE PEOPLE AND FOR THE PEOPLE AS I CAN PROMISE YOU!
I’VE BEEN RAPPING AND WRITING SINCE I WAS ELEVEN YEARS OLD, WHICH IS SINCE THE SIXTH GRADE. I AM CONSISTENTLY PASSIONATE ABOUT MUSIC AND POSITIVE CHANGE. INFLUENCED BY HIP HOP VETERANS, I WANTED TO GAIN RESPECT FROM MUSIC. TO BE LOOKED AT AS A YOUNG BLACK MUSICIAN KNOWN FOR MY ORIGINALITY, HOW I KEEP MY AUDIENCE ENTHUSIASTIC WITH MY SONGS AND ILLUMINATE MY LOVE FOR HIP HOP THROUGH MY SOUL. I PERSONALLY KNOW THE LEGENDARY RAPPERS NAS, SNOOP DOGG, THE GAME, & KENDRICK LAMAR & HAVE LEARNED A LOT FROM THEIR SKILLSETS, THE WAY THEY CREATE THEIR MUSIC AND HOW THEY HAVE INSPIRED ME GROWING UP
WITH MY SKILLS IN RHYTHMIC COMMUNICATION, I SEE MYSELF AS THE NEXT LEADER FOR MY GENERATION! THE WAY MUSIC MAKES ME FEEL; I CAN’T EVEN AMOUNT TO IT IN WORDS. I NEVER REALIZED WHAT MY NAME ACTUALLY MEANT OR REPRESENTED OF ME UNTIL 2009, WHEN I CAME TO THE BAY AREA FOR MY EDUCATION.
ƒORTÉ, WHICH IS MY REAL NAME, NOT ONLY REPRESENTS MUSIC AND THE TEMPOS WITHIN IT, BUT MY VOICE IS ALSO A LOUD FORCE THAT CAN DOMINATE AND CONTROL IN SO MANY WAYS. I WIELD THIS POWER CAREFULLY AND WITH GOOD INTENTIONS
"RAPPING IS MY ƒORTÉ. SO WHAT IS YOURS?!"
HOPEFULLY MY APPROACH IS TAKEN WITH RESPECT & LOOKED UPON. I CAN'T WAIT TO SHOW YOU ALL MY MUSIC, COLLABORATIONS PROJECTS I'VE BEEN WORKING ON, VISUALS LIKE MUSIC VIDEOS, LIVE PERFORMANCES, FREESTYLE VIDEOS TO SHOW YOU HOW I EARNED THE TITLE OF FREESTYLE KING OF COMPTON, SONGS WITH ME @VERBAL-D & @EDGARSTUDIO, AS WELL AS OTHER THING I WOULD LIKE TO WRITE ABOUT, EXPLORE, AND BRING TO LIGHT. ONCE AGAIN THANKS FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO JOIN THIS WONDERFUL STEEMIT COMMUNITY, FOLLOW ME FOR MUSIC AND MUCH MUCH MORE. WE'RE ABOUT TO HAVE A LOT OF FUN WITH THIS ONE!
RESPECTFULLY,
Voris ƒORTÉ

Welcome to Steemit, following you and looking forward to your content :-)
I just gifted you a @randowhale vote as part of an idea I'm calling #payitforward. As you can see from this image, my 2 $BD payment to @randowhale just turned into an increase of around $2.75 on your expected payout (meaning $BD & some number of SteemPower). Unfortunately, this was a pretty low one, but at least it will help the post to gain steem!
Thanks for joining us!
PS: Thanks @randowhale
I Appreciate The Love & Support Kenny, Let's Continue To Build In The Near Future! #Blessings

Welcome to this wonderful community,
I myself am a newbie to steemit but look forward to cultivating material as well as learning from you and others! I am so glad your are passionate about hip hop and with that said we both know how great that avenue can be speacialy old school rap to promote unification amongst the brown, black and white community's because not all hip hop is a "story" or a life experience some of it if not most is filled with poison that contaminates the youth, that poisen most of the time is fake I know to well having lived that life, I hope we as a community band together to bring out the truth, and realize that some of the underlying agendas that plaque the hip hop community must be fixed and dealt with. Most of these studio bandits rap about guns,"hoes", money, crack and stuff they never did, what happened to the days of Tupac, run dmc, shyne, and Easy e? We all know real gangsters don't talk yet we have all these kids promoting black on black crime and so on, having grown up in "the hood" when shit pops off you have a whole gang but everyone runs and only 2-3 real ones stay. I am not ranting just reaching out to you as an educated member of the hip hop community whose influence can cause a positive change. And if you want to know who the next famouse rapper is just follow the "money" and the big corporations.
We Are That Conscious Collective Of Individuals Ready To Make A Change & Imprint On Peoples Lives! It's Time Family As It Starts With Us. Being Put In The Position To Influence The World And My Community On Such A High Level Is A Complete Blessing In Which I Can't Take For Granted; I Always Ask Myself, What Is Your Flow?
Life Or Death^ Now It's Time To Bring Life To Those Who Are Sleep Or Close To Being Dead: Physically, Mentally, Emotionally, & Spiritually*
Welcome to Steemit! I hope you will enjoy it as much as I do! :-)
