BIO / More About Yourself

S.I.A (Silence Is Authentic is a Hip Hop/Rap Artist Base out of Miami, FL. There is really no way to describe his style. Due to the variety of ways he expresses himself on a track. "What ever the tracks gives me I do. I let the beat soak in and I express what it makes me feel. I do it all, Hard, Soft, Underground, Commercial, and since I'm bilingual I like to tap into my roots and experiment creating this genre founded in the Dominican Republic called MAMBO. Its hot cause you can actually rap over the beat." Silence 1 of 17 Brothers and Sisters has come a long way from seeing his older brother get lost in the streets of New Yorks crack world. His brother only 16 at the time suffered a shot to the head hospitalizing him for 2 years. After numerous surgeries and blood transfusion he manage to survive loosing vision in his left eye. "He's lucking to be alive. Those where hard times, a lot of prayers". Silence moved back and forth from the Dominican Republic (Herrera) to the Bronx, NY till 1991. "That was the year my parent decided they wanted to try out the M.I.A, been here ever since." Silence began writing at the age of 14. "I remember writing rhymes with no beat during my algebra class. Its crazy, there's rhymes I've forgotten but I still remember my 1st 16 bars." Inspired by the notorious BIG, NAS and Snoop Dogg S.I.A began to form his craft. "Ive been through it all, I was part of a group called Roxxon in North Carolina during my 4 year tour in the Marine Corps. That was cool but the group thang don't really fit my billet. " After the Corps S.I.A. moved back to Miami in 2002 and started working with DJ Aspekt and a few other artist that where affiliated. we had one of those situations which Im pretty sure if you been in this long enough you know....TO MANY CHIEFS...NOT ENOUGH INDIANS!!" After dropping a mix tape called The Movement in 2003 Silence got the news that his beautiful daughter Kiara was on the way. "Thats when i said F*** this music Shii I Gotta Get my money up. It ain't nothing, I always been a hustler. When I was 7 I use to sell ices and flip quarters. Then at 12 I started cutting hair. Soon enough I was cutting the whole block at $3 a pop. I refuse to be a starving artist." Silence decided to give up music for the time being and worked himself into the mortgage biz and other business adventures. " I though at the moment, OK I'll get my bread then I'll come back to the music." Since then its been a roller coaster ride, literally a movie. 'if I tell you, id have to kill ya". They say your not a Boss till you take a loss then if that the case Silence Is A King Pin. "Don't talk to me about losses, I know what it is to have nothing, have it all then have nothing and rebuild." What makes silence music so special is that there is no fantasy nor fictional theories in his music. Its 100% AUTHENTIC. "My music is original and consist of my life experiences, views and opinions." All music is writing by Silence and will always be. So if he's on it, he wrote it." Don't hesitate to check out the On Me Mix tape coming March 2010. The debut album AUTHENTIC is set to be released summer 2010.
