Phokis

Newport News

Born on October 7th, 1986 in Hampton, Virginia... Phokis was a product of a single parent household, raised by his mother. She taught Phokis the values and morals to stand by in life; family, loyalty, love, respect, and music amongst other qualities. She often would play Tupac - All Eyez On Me, Michael Jackson - Dangerous, Mary J Blige - Whats The 411 and Lil Kim - Hardcore, which lead him to wanting to rap. Phokis knew at an early age that he had ability to make art out of various methods of expression; building, speaking, acting, and most impacting, music. Doing shows all around his area, 757, Phokis gained most of his respect from “block ciphers”, “freestyle battles”, and features with other artist. His sarcastic, brilliant, and compassionate personality have made him like the New York Yankees; one of the most loved and hated. Phokis pushed his first major project, 80s Show, Loosies Tape, and Memories of An Ex Rappers Official website www.Phokismusic.com
