About Artist
Just as the mythical Phoenix rose from the ashes to symbolize rebirth,
F.E.N.I.X. (Feel Exodus Now Introducing X-Generation) Universal has
emerged from the grip of Baton Rogue’s impoverished housing projects
to realize his dreams of reigning supreme in the annals of hip-hop and
beyond. Penning rhymes since the age of nine, the man born Christopher Wesley
learned how to construct lyrical jewels from none other than his mother.
“My mom used to write rhymes and I used to sit back and watch her
write,” says F.E.N.I.X. “She used to try to keep me away from rap
because she wanted me to focus on school, but it was a natural passion
that I couldn’t deny.”
F.E.N.I.X.’s mother realized her son’s sonic footprint was
unmistakeable, though, and acquiesced, signing the dotted line on his
first contract at age 10 with Music Buster Entertainment, a local
record label. “When I turned 14, I started getting in a lot of trouble and started
going in and out of prison,” says F.E.N.I.X. “It was like being in
a time capsule musically.”
Undeterred, F.E.N.I.X. used the decade of confinement to develop his
voice and compiled 40 albums worth of material before molesting the
studio to record inspired music with the fervor and zeal of a musical
prodigy electrified with a newfound purpose.
“My mother was killed by a serial killer and it remains unsolved,”
says F.E.N.I.X. “That showed me that nothing is promised. That let
me know that I couldn’t take my musical gift for granted. My music
creates atmosphere, which creates the art, which creates the visual.
With my music, you’ll never be confined to one sound. Every song I
make is completely different from the next.”
And so too is F.E.N.I.X. Universal. He’s completely different from
the next MC, but exactly like the rap superstars of the past and
present in that his music speaks to the masses and leaves an indelible
mark in the collective sonic landscape.
