Exquisite is one of the most talented up and coming emcees on the rise. Born in the city of Chicago he moved to the northwest suburbs at a very young age but had a deep passion and love for music his entire life. He grew up listening to many different genres of music starting with juke and house mixtapes handed down to him from his older sister. After growing older he became interested in the rock and metal scene and started playing the guitar at the age of 11. A couple more years went by and his love for hip hop started after recieving "A Tribe Called Quest The Love Movement" album from his sister once again. Around the same time he became heavily involved in the graffiti scene at the age of 13 which expanded his horizon in the underground hip hop world by listening to artists like madlib, people under the stairs, sage francis, mf doom and many more. His biggest inspiration came after reading a biography about J Dilla, which only pushed him more to create music. He started creating music at the age of 16 with his child hood friend Sean Rich at his house using his closet rigged with bed sheets as the booth. After differences with the two they remained good friends but he decided it'd be best if he did his music on his own. So now at 20 years old after rapping for 4 years Exquisite's diverse and eclectic backround in music along with his hard hitting lyrics and acrobatic word play definitely makes him one of the strongest up and coming emcees in the industry today.
