War Within

The fiery Florida-bred lyricist has been ploughing his trade for more than a decade, both as a solo artist and as the lead vocalist in the band Mayday! And despite a handful of mixtapes and straight-to-the-Internet album releases, he s finally set to drop a proper full-length solo release The War Within.

It s a deadly combination of things that I ve been holding inside forever, says the 30-year-old. Things about my family, things about the game, my battle career. Just talking about a lot of things, autobiographically. I needed to get this off my chest.

There s a lot of pent up emotion inside of Wrekonize, and rightfully so. He was born in Richmond Surrey, London, but by the age of 6 had relocated, along with his parents, to North Miami Beach, in Florida. From there the family moved North to Hollywood, Florida, where they settled for good. Only his parents were having marital issues, and soon divorced, which obviously had a profound effect on him.
