KRAZY Defined Knowledge - Resilient. - Advantageous - Zelous in seeking & creating the Kingdom of God in the world of Darkness — Yoke , divinely connected with the blood 🩸 of Jesus Christ, embedded in him is the message and he delivers to Pharisees & the streets while transforming self and helping others along the way. K.R.A.Z.Y. Born in Jersey City, New Jersey, on November 28, 1982, in the middle of a tremendous change in history. I lived on Kennedy Blvd in Jersey City until the age of 4 when my mother moved into Marion Garden Projects. The story is deep, the music tells the story of my timeline. The passion I have to create better situations for myself and those around me comes from experiences all that I feel needs to change in order to have ultimate peace. God has blessed me with strength, wisdom, courage, and all my characteristics. There is nothing I received in my life that wasn’t provided to me by someone else. Even my struggle was provided for me to become stronger and a source for others, and I just accepted that position that I believe and have faith in. The following layers and Chapters will be expressed through my work as a producer, author of a variety of ways to include poetry, R&B song writer, Hip-Hip author & director, short stories, articles and interviewer. As a protege, I transformed into a mentor. Then, I transformed into the creator of mentorship programs in 3 different commands in the United States Navy. As a student, I became a teacher. I am currently working with partners to build a school. I hated high school but graduated from college, and I pursed a Masters degree. I went from a worker to the project manager. I went from being defeated to forever claiming victory. As a son, I became a father. As a father, I experienced dissatisfaction, I experienced love, happiness , and sadness. I felt hate from my children, I experienced hating my own children, even if that feeling only lasted for a couple of hours, but I have never regretted any experience I have been through. As a sinner, I became aware of my spirituality. As a person who verbally abused my people with my passion, I became silent. As a respondent to violence with violence, I became a mediator and protector. The lowest ranking in my military division, I then became the leader of it. Since birth, I have been blessed. Have been tested, have foiled, but succeeded eventually. Stories in these words will reflect the experience of only one persons view with wisdom from Maria Gaines( she is beauty itself. She is my healer, my guide, and my listener is blessed. , Ruben Lopez (my loving spiritual father) Danny ( The Bravest Soul on this planet, fearless is his name, so fearless is what I became (Step Dad).
