My Influences – How The Zodiac Came About

Posted by The Zodiac | Blog,Notes and Thoughts | Tuesday 21 February 2012 12:39 am

It’s been told to friends and family members have witnessed it.  But exactly HOW did The Zodiac come about?  Well, the story is too long to write in blogs so I’ll just give a video reference with artists and how they influenced my style in hip-hop.

Artist: Run-DMC

Coming up in the early 80′s I hated rap music.  HATED it!  Then, my brother, Neil played some Run-DMC’s “Sucker MCs”.  I still didn’t get it and questioned the style.  I didn’t like it.  Soon after, while watching New York Hot Tracks with Carlos DeJesus (RIP), “Rock Box” played….!!  From that first guitar rif, I was HOOKED!  Run-DMC became the best thing on earth and the first tape I ever bought in my life.  The influence began right then and there at age 11.
