So everyone knows
that I am obsessed with Logic’s
music, but in a roundabout way, that lead me to meeting QuESt. A few years back
I read about him on a few different hip hop blogs & listened to his song Everybody Has A Story (to see the exact
blog post, click here).
I was impressed with the message behind the song and continued to see him all
over the blogs for a while, but then it slowed down. That happens a lot in hip
hop, especially underground hip hop, so I didn’t really think anything of it.
But then, QuESt opened for Logic on the Welcome To Forever tour. This caught me
by surprise because I hadn’t heard anything from him in a couple years. And
then Visionary Music Group signed him Summer 2013 and I began to see more and
more.
In January, Logic
read my blog for the first time which then lead to other VMG members reading it
as well, including QuESt’s manager, Dino (shout-out @rhymestyle). We talked
about music and I got the opportunity to hear some of QuESt’s newest project.
When I visited family back home in California, I was able to meet both QuESt
and Dino. We talked about our favorite hip hop artists, albums, songs, etc. and
agreed that our favorites revolved around the stories behind the words.
Throughout our conversations it was very clear that everything that QuESt raps
about comes from real life experiences. He would be telling me a story &
one of his songs would instantly pop into my head—they are literally the
soundtrack of his life.
He may not know
good coffee (sorry I had to), but he sure as hell knows music. If you love hip
hop, you’ll love QuESt. To see his official twitter page click here.
