Cw AllenI was born and raised Cleveland, Ohio. There I grew up listening to Hip Hop music and falling in love with heart pounding drums and bass lines. I began rapping my senior year of high school when I was challenged to free style at an open mic. The reaction I received was very positive and that's when I began my journey as an artist penning lyrics. By that time I had already fell deeply in love with God and His word so my music was just an expression of my heart and surroundings. In 2009 I left Cleveland and moved to Chicago to attend Moody Bible Institute where I studied communications and Bible. Now in year 15 of my musical journey I'm finishing first book and latest album entitled CATALYST. I have had the privilege to share all over the country in bars, schools, camps, and conferences opening for such as Cannon, Da Truth, Sean C. Johnson, Shopé, This'l, and the Legendary Curtis Blow.
