Vision interview by Macha Femme San Francisco

(Q) When did you first fall in love with hip-hop?

VISION: I've always been into soul music. As a little girl, my moms was heavy into Tina Turner, Al Green, and Marvin Gaye. She loved to dance. This was in the 80's. I remember her getting all dressed up in her bell-bottoms and just seeming so young and happy. She started calling me Tina and kind of turned me on to the music greats. I think that's when I fell in love with hip-hop. Hip-hop means something different to everyone. To me hip-hop is a lifestyle filled with soul.


(Q) How did you first learn to rap?

VISION: When I was eleven I started writing these long a**poems. That's when I first started getting the inclination to rhyme, but I first started to rap when I was thirteen years old. I used to hear my brother and his friends freestylin' and it was like a light when off in my dome, 'hey I can do that too,' and from that day forward I just never ever stopped.
