Hello everyone, my name is Jeffriel Lichtenberg. I'm 20 years old, Dominican and Dutch and well, there's really not much to say about me but that I'm an aspiring artist, musician and creative who's really just trying to make it somewhere through creativity. I live in Malden, MA. I moved here from Lynn, MA and have been living here for a little over 10 years now, and I've got to say that moving to this city was a BIG deal for me. I was always an extroverted person growing up and so moving was pretty easy. I was able to make new friends in an instant. Today, I'm proud to say that I'm well connected with many lives. Since networking is key in the media industry, I think of this as a great characteristic for myself to carry.
Enough about my move from Lynn to Malden, I want to talk to you guys about my dreams (if you don't mind). A lot of people might ask "why does this kid wanna rap, just like everyone else?" Well, I've got an answer for that! Its simple, really; I just want to share my story. I believe everyone has their war and this is a way for me to stand my ground. My army is my music. My military comes through sound waves and head bobs. Its really important for me to express life and culture through this music thing and I just love it. Alongside my love for music, I have this burning flame of passion for my lovely girlfriend, Olivia. She is what truly keeps me motivated and willing to succeed. She's my Athena :D
In case you all wanted to know a little more about me; I'm a huge fan of Kanye West, Steve Jobs, Nikola Tesla, Aristotle, Plato, Socrates and Pharell. I know: "what!?" I have a thing for creative, critical and wishful thinking. These 7 influences have given me guidance to becoming this free thinker. i don't take "no" or "yes" for an answer, I always want to know why. If someone tells me they don't want to do something I ask "why?" If someone says to me they wish they had a million dollars, I ask "why?" My mother's told me not to touch things and like every child does, I asked "why?" Maybe its because I refuse to "grow up" in the sense that society taught us to grow up in or its because I refuse to stand for biased opinions, I just know that I am my own human, body and soul. I live my own life and no one can take anything away from me. After saying all this, I don't want you guys to think I'm some type of rebel or something but, I just want you all to understand that conformity is just a waste of life. I am not trash and neither are you.
