Seven Star, the name alone could not be better suited. The number associated with the gods. Seven, of Puerto Rican decent, started his out many years as a religious MC. When the time came to proceed beyond his religous beliefs and begin his individual evolution his journey really began. To hear Seven Star is to hear the mind and wisdom of the elders speak through his mouth piece. Touching on all subjects relating to humanity from man-women realtionships to the injustices bestowed on the natives of the island once known as Borike’n. His message is universal and his flow and delivery will amaze, whether spoken or written. His honesty will make you think and react in the tradition of his role models such as Malcolm X, Cobain, KRS-1 and Ginsberg. Seven star has a lot to say. Seven Star can be found also on allied label Counterflow and you can read some of his thoughts in his monthly post "The Lamarckian Chronicles" in our 'NEWS' section.
