Story
My soundcloud presence Well... In 1981 it all began with a humble start, in life but '88 was when everything changed. I took refuge in the three jewels. I started painting, performing, writing poetry, studying etymology and more aged seven. When I turned 18 after many bands and gigs and even a vinyl release, I started producing on The MPC 2000XL. Things were good back then....Since 2011 my mother was dying of cancer and I became homeless. Then my mother suddenly died. It caused me to have a breakdown. I am only just now getting settled and on my feet. However, since May 2017 my disability benefits have been cut by £560 a month! Also they were suspended for two months, so I almost got evicted. I am struggling to pay the bills, maintain my wellbeing and survive. Plus my family still are not giving me my inheritance after 5 years in destitution. Please help if you can???
