A.R Tokin’ is a man on a mission like no other. The Washington native started this twisty journey as a child left in awe by the words of legendary emcees such as Snoop Dogg and Ludacris. The fragility of his childhood would find a way to break as he and his friends grew older. Tokin would soon see his friends succumb to drug addiction, suicide, and other vices over the years, which left him with a tremendous amount of stress and pressure. When all hope seemed lost, music appeared as a ray of light at the end of the tunnel. He soon poured in all of his resources, effort, and passion into creating timeless hip-hop records that helped him cope with life and would soon help other do the same. He would eventually team up with his longtime producer, E.P, and grow exponentially in a creative sense. “If I make it, they make it. [I’m] loyal to the end.” Carrying the team on his back, Tokin is determined to spread the love and hope music gave him to as many who are willing to listen!
Music is the one thing that has been consistent in my life and is how I cope with life. It is also something that I love to do regardless.
To make music provide for my family and hang out with people that want to make a positive impact like myself.
