Authintic

Authintic is a hip hop artist and producer born and raised in Colorado. He became a single father at 21 when his son’s mother was killed in an auto accident. In 2009, he started his printing business and has been self-employed since. In 2016 his grandfather was inducted into the Colorado Country Music Hall of Fame. Authintic has a unique, one of a kind perspective rarely seen in hip hop that is heard throughout his music. In 2003, he started making beats and fell in love with the process of creating music. Shortly after, he began to record music, as he had been writing songs as far back as he could remember. Being a young, wild kid, he got himself into some legal trouble and did a few months in county jail before being sentenced to probation. The day of his release he went to Home Depot, purchased building materials and built a vocal booth in the basement of his parent’s home. The next day, he spent the rest of his money and purchased recording equipment from Guitar Center. He made the decision he would channel his anger and other emotions through music going forward. All music written, recorded and produced is done out of pure passion and desire. Music is created as a therapeutic aid to himself and his listeners. He is not influenced nor intrigued by the idea of record deals, money, and fame, in fact he despises it. Authintic has always believed if you can’t be yourself in your pursuit of happiness, there is no point to even try.
