For every young artist, fulfilling the dream of touching the world through the passion of music seems unreachable. However, no matter how long a journey may be, it all starts with a single step. The first step is to realize this dream and acknowledge it is a gift to be appreciated and cherished.
This young rapper, singer, producer and songwriter hails from Syria but was born in Kuwait on November 30, 1984. The Middle East and its history, its symbolism, and its beauty are a driving force behind his inspiration and captivating lyrics. He started his musical journey at the age of thirteen in his home, Kuwait, at a local talent show at the American International School of Kuwait (AISK). He continued to perform for the talent show for four consecutive years, each year becoming more mature and more aware of his musical talents. In his senior year, he along with a talented local break-dance group named Crew Z, put together an entire hip hop presentation. This show was produced by D-Cyfer and was also the debut of his mad rapping skills; and the rest is history.
The goal of this emerging artist is to give rise to the true meaning of talent from the ashes of today's musical slump and the bling bling era. His passion for music is unbreakable and is reflected in every lyric of every song.
His musical influences are many. But he most inspired by artists who reference their own life experiences in their work. Artists such as Tupac Shakur, Biggie Smalls, Mos Def, Lauren Hill and Michael Jackson are among the many inspirations. Overtime, these influences sparked his interest in rap and hip hop. He saw hip hop as the perfect outlet for his unique creativity, feelings and views on life.
For him it is all about the music with no compromises and without the clutter of fake friendships and superficial relationships to get him to where he wants to be. Success is born from pure talent and the will to work hard towards your goals. This rapper, singer, producer and songwriter has nothing but motivation to reach his goals.
D-Cyfer currently works under the independent record label Resurrection Music Entertainment. However, he is not signed with any major record label for marketing and distribution. |
