deified, or bradley, is a 21 year old out of jax, fl. 
 growing up always moving around, i was always introduced to new walks of life, at the same time being introduced to new genres of music. i grew up loving and listening to r&b, neo-soul, hip-hop, rock, alt rock, blues, swing etc. always consuming these aforementioned genres, by the age of 14, i wanted to create my own versions and pieces akin to in content and not limited to: outkast, erykah badu, nas, mobb deep, j dilla, the alchemist, d'angelo, ne-yo, and many more i regret saving my breath for. 
 as a kid, i always saw my pops on the mpc5000 puttin some kind of piece together. and like most kids that are blessed with that kind of family relationship, i took inspiration. i love music. i may not be the most talented instrumentalist or vocalist, but my feeling and conveyance of love for music can't be ignored when someone graced with such talents enter the room. i believe that hard work beats natural talent any day. with that being said, i have been busting my ass trying to get better, and i'm feeling like my hard work is paying off in the regard of personal growth and mental stability. i have told many of my friends, i don't do this for the satisfaction of other people, or for their likes, comments, shares, etc. i do this for ME, and my mental health. i have gone through many things most people can't imagine and making music has proven to be a great outlet for me to vent to and to let it all out.
