You Can't Sit With Us - Episode (#78) - (C.T.) - Presented by Threshold Brace

Milwaukee native Christopher Thompson aka C.T. is a emcee & entrepreneur raised on the city's North and East side. C.T. was co-founder and part owner of 2035 Art & Media Studios, a creative arts studio in Milwaukee that offered a wide range of services to the general public and artists in the Milwaukee creative arts & music scene, including graphic arts services, website creation, recording studio, photography work and a wide range of other services. C.T. started to gain a serious interest in Hip Hop and began rapping in middle school but as far back as 4th grade, he realized he had an interest in the written word in all its forms. His interest in the written word spawned from experiences as a student at Hartford Avenue University Elementary on Milwaukee's eastside, located on the campus of UW-Milwaukee. It was there that C.T. met a teacher who would become highly influential in the young man's life and later on his art. C.T.'s love for writing began with a simple journal writing assignment given to the class. He quickly gained an interest in writing and began to write more than the required amount, writing poems & short stories. In these early writings, C.T. found a voice that he has continued to express through his music. Growing up, C.T.'s father was always a large influence on him, musically and as a person. By 8th grade, C.T. had already developed interest in Hip Hop music and the culture due to the influence of his father who opened the young man's eyes to a wide range of music, including Hip Hop. With a love for the written word already solidified, the transition into writing Hip Hop lyrics was relatively natural for the talented young man who spent years practicing his writing skills and developing his voice as a young artist. Both songs attached are from my 'From Auntie's Basement' EP entirely produced by Lean Beatz.
