"Hello how are you?
My name is
José Miguel
And my last name is Galán
It’s a pleasure to meet you
Thank you for this opportunity
That you’re giving me
To showcase my talent
My rhymes come to me
But if I don’t practice
they’ll be gone to me"
"I’m from El Salvador
I live in California
I’ve spent half my life
Behind bars"
"I’ll stay positive
Non stop
I love music
But I prefer rap
I do my own thing
I do what I have to
To come out on top"
