Steven “Wreckamic” Mullen
(Rap Lyricist)
“I'm not a "wannabe, I actually do this shit!”
Wrecka: I'm 27 and I was born at FLOW HOSPITAL in Denton, TX.
BLU: How long have you been rapping?
Wrecka: I wrote my first rap at 8 yrs old. I've been recording my music since 2002.
Wrecka: When I first started, I was more style than substance and there wasn't that much authenticity in my lyrics. As I've matured and become a man, my music is more about my real life through the ups and downs.
BLU: Who are your influences?
Wrecka: Being from the South, UGK, Geto Boys, 8Ball & MJG, Outkast, Master P, Screwed Up Click & Swisha House influenced me a lot. I think I've become more known for my ability to really spit and that came from listening to how cats like Jay-Z, Nas, Big Pun, Big L, Eminem, Chamillionaire, Bun B & Twista spit their rhymes. I pride myself on versatility.
BLU: There are a lot of people out who want to be rappers, what makes you different?
Wrecka: Umm, probably that I'm not a "wannabe". I actually do this shit! I started out in the battle circuits competing. I moved on to opening up for big names like Webbie, Scarface, Juelz Santana, Z-Ro, Soulja Boy & more. After securing a licensing deal with EA Sports for their "MMA" video game, I'm focused on signing deals and creating more business for myself.
BLU: What do you believe will be the most challenging part of your music journey?
Wrecka: There are so many challenges. I can't worry about all that. I just know that I have to be prepared to deal with bullshit and persevere.
BLU: 2011 is almost over… What do hope to accomplish before the year is up?
Wrecka: I would like to release 2 full length projects, 2 music videos and have a functional website running by 2012.
BLU: You have been dropping out a lot of hot singles lately are there any upcoming projects or showcases that we should look out for?
BLU: If you can work with any artists in the next upcoming projects who would it be and why?
Wrecka: I don’t feature many artists on my songs so it would have to be someone that I respect as an artist. I've always wanted to work with E-40. I like Young Dro, Bun B, Crooked I, & Tech N9ne. I like lyricism and creativity. There aren't too many rappers that I'm feeling these days.
BLU: If you could be anything other than a rapper what would you be?
Wrecka: I'd work with troubled youth.
BLU: Where can we find more of your work?
Wrecka: I frequently post new music on http://wreckamic.blogspot.com and have a lot of music at http://youtube.com/wreckamic
BLU: What music are you listening to right now?
Wrecka: I've been listening to everything but rap! When I'm in my writing mode, I like to expose myself to different genres to further cultivate my music palette.
BLU: Do you have any last shout outs or anything else you would like to add?
