10 THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW

By: ms.cyntje
From Our Mar - Apr 2007 Issue

10 things you should know about Aaron Parillon formerly “Grime-A” Hustlaz Ministry.

  1. I’m the New Breed of Hip Hop. I’m so focus on music I listen to beats all day.
  2. To me music is like a woman; you must invest in it and you must be committed.
  3. In music you have to be confident with your own flow.  If I don’t start to flow off a beat the first time I hear it I don’t use it.
  4. I was destined to do this.  My motivation comes from my mom; she gave up her dreams to become a singer at a young age.   While she was pregnant with me a man predicted she was going to have a boy.  He told her I was going to be everything she couldn’t be musically.
  5. Morgan Heritage told me to always be inspired by what you do not by others because it will take your focus off what you are doing.
  6. In music you should never feel like you know enough.  I try to learn every new style of hip hop that comes out.
  7. My influences are Jay-Z because he is aggressive, Tupac because he was a poet and Biggie Smalls because he was a lyricist a sort of movie star rapper.  I also like Common, Nas, Mos Def and Talib Kweli.  The first rap album I ever bought was Jay-Z’s Reasonable Doubt.  I still have it on my I-pod to this day. 
  8. Content for your lyrics should come from books, the news and poetry because reading more helps your flow.  I hate artist who dumb down their raps. Talk about politics, social injustice or what’s going on in the Virgin Islands .
  9. The best way to rap is from a birds eye view.  When it happens to you its just bragging.  When you talk about it from an outsider’s perspective you can go way beyond the situation and teach something in the process. 
  10. And last but no least, push your own music.  If you don’t push you won’t have no pull.

Aaron just signed a development deal with Capital Records.  His mixtape Hustlaz Ministry Volume 1 has R&B and Hip Hop tracks like “I wanna be with you girl” featuring reggae artist I-Shamani and “Yes”.  Be on the look out for Volume 2 “Da Good Die Young”.
