Skillz
Shaquan Ian Lewis, also known as Skillz (formerly Mad Skillz), is an American rapper known for his acclaimed 1996 album From Where???, a reference to his origins in Virginia, not the stereotypical New York City or Los Angeles rapper, and he's also known for his yearly "Rap Ups," which he has done annually since 2002 (except in 2013).
Biography
Skillz was born in Detroit, Michigan, and after spending his early childhood in Fayetteville, North Carolina he then moved to Richmond, Virginia at a young age. He credits Run DMC for getting him involved in hip hop as a child. He fell in love with the culture and immediately began to practice all four elements religiously. He first made a name for himself by finishing in second place (Losing to MC Supernatural) in a national freestyle competition, which eventually resulted in a recording contract with Atlantic Records. At this time he went by the stage name Mad Skillz rather than just Skillz. Mad Skillz' Atlantic debut album, From Where???, and its single, "The Nod Factor", were released in 1996, but neither received much commercial or critical attention. The album's title was a reference to the regionalism in hip-hop, and at the time the state of Virginia did not have a large hip-hop scene. In the late-1990s more of a Virginia scene emerged, and he allied himself with fellow Virginia natives Missy Elliott, Timbaland, and The Neptunes. He made appearances on Timbaland's albums Tim's Bio in 1998, and Indecent Proposal in 2001; Timbaland made plans to sign Skillz to the Blackhand label he was developing; however, this label failed to materialize. He along with Danja Mowf, Lonnie B, and Kalonji The Immortal, members of Skillz' Supafriendz collective, also appeared on a remix of Aaliyah's hit single "Are You That Somebody" in 1998.

Take It Back
by: What Feeds The FireOne's mind drifts away, it gets away from itself. Now
it's time to reflect on how you left your mind to melt.
Thoughts are at a standstill, you give in to desire.
Outsides covered in disguise, while your insides set a
fire. Take it back! Have you had enough, man, are you
through...or is it too late for you? Why do you sit
around and let it slip through the cracks? End your
restrictions and start taking it back. Take your mind
back, and be free. Your addictions cast away. Your heads
held up high. Travelling down the right road. Substance
abuse no longer has the control. Stay true and stay
proud. Fuck your past, now it's gone. What remains? A bad
memory, but now you're standing strong...BE FREE.
