Whats up yall? How did yall get/come up with your names?

Kurtis Rich: My native name that my parents call me is "Prah" which stands for money and richness that's why I chose Rich. My name is Keo, but one time this chic kept calling me Kurtis instead of Keo. So I let the 2 powers combined and became.... KURTIS RICH because when I make lots of money the girls be like, hey Kurt Is Rich. Right now... it's more like Kurt Is Broke.

I have no name sept the one I was born with.

Andreas is the equivalent of your Andrew. And I didn't come up with a name that I wanted to use so I stuck with my real name.

The only stagename I've ever wanted exept my own is "Beatnik". But that one has been used far to often already so I gave up that idea.

Chrono

Chrono is short for Chronotrigger which is a Super Nintendo game released in 95.. a friend started calling my Chrono because he said I looked like the main character. A year later I started writing lyrics and in my first rap I wrote started it off with "my name is chrono from the videogame" so i guess i've been reppin that since the first line, 4th word, day 1. that's deep lol. It sounds much better then "yo my name is michael from tulsa"

Holly, I thought it sounded fake like Joe Mayo or Bobby Monopoly. Do you have a picture online? ;)

Sanova...

most think it comes from Casanova. but it doesnt.

I was at a album release party about 4 years ago.. i was only in 8th grade, but i was well known in my area, so anyway i spit a freestyle, and i was currently going by "infamy" ..

i slipped up in a line and out came "sanova" and it rhymed with whatever i said before that.

ppl just been callni me that ever since.

I'm a comic book cat from waaaayyyy back in the eighties. And I'm not too good with the whole naming thing, so I grabbed a villain's name and just spelled it different. It was MXYZPTLK from Superman. The little midget from the fifth dimension that Superman had to get him to say his name backwards to send him back. So I was mitzelplik. Even though I liked Marvel comics, I didn't really like their villains, and I didn't want to be a hero... I did think of the Justice League and Superfriends a loong loong time ago (like 89) for group names, but as history goes, somebody beat me there.

After a while I didn't like Mitzelplik no more, and my homeboy was callin me MP for short, so I just stuck the 3 on the end and ran with that.

Nah man, being fake makes you fake. Like calling yourself Gangsta D and you ain't no gangsta. Or talking about moving weight when the heaviest thing you carry is your mom's grocery bags, and she kick you off fruity loops to check her email.

But, for example Grafik. That's who he is... How is that fake?

I'm MP3, I make shitty sounds that everybody wants to download. Naa-mean?
