From Pro Skater to 21 Years in Prison Crittermake on Talk about it with Franjez podcast episode 136

Yonkers born recording artist CritterMake, an unfiltered look at a life of extreme highs and devastating lows.  CritterMake shares his incredible journey from being a sponsored professional skateboarder at age 13 skating alongside legends like Tony Hawk to his transition into the Yonkers rap scene. The conversation takes a sobering turn as he recounts being wrongfully accused of a crime at age 19, leading to a 21 year sentence in the New York State prison system.  Discover how CritterMake used two decades behind bars to educate himself, find independence, and perfect his musical craft, creating a "dystopia" of his own through rhyming and discipline. We also dive into his latest music projects, including Memoirs of Destiny, and his clothing brand, Coltron.  In this episode, we discuss: • Growing up on Warburton Avenue in Yonkers.  • The "Golden Era" of 90s childhood and hip hop.  • The reality of life in maximum security prisons like Attica and Green Haven. • How he survived a 21 year sentence and maintained his innocence.  • The meaning behind the name "CritterMake".  Connect with Critter Make: • Check out his albums: Snuggle Season, Memoirs of Destiny, and more. • Support the brand: Coltron.   #CritterMake #YonkersRap #TalkAboutItWithFranjez #PrisonSurvival
