Philadelphia, PA

Cordell Hairston was born in Philadelphia, PA and growing up as a child he was always into music from singing alto to soprano in the church, and school choir from time to time he caught on to making melodies in songs. At the age of nine he was influenced alot by Rock and he listened to alot of it. From Jimi Hendrix, to Pink Floyd he caught on to just being himself and started to explore emotions with songwriting. Songs was coming to him faster and faster and by the age of seventeen he had over a hundred songs recorded in some format. He always had a passion for music but now every downfall he had made sense and when people didnt think he could be a good athlete, then be a good songwriter. He proved them wrong, anyway music has been the key of his world since he was a kid. Cordell had many names as a battle rapper from P-Dell to ill Rhymer to Pacman but Psycho Mantis stuck, Overall he made a name for himself making demo albums and starting Aerodynamics and Co., because he helped other local rappers make tracks by taking them to their own studio session. It was for the love of the music and as being a battle rapper slowed down, his will for making good songs grew. He follwed the passion of being yourself and wanting to stay longevity in the industry was always the key."Getting my foot in the door and having people believe in me is a factor also he said",but I'm not no gimmick and my music is 100% what I feel now or at the moment which I will address if asked. I'm mature with my Image and there is no need to doubt my music and while the people in my area know that soon the world will know that. I respect the companies that give artist chances because without that every artist would have to be strong in money, instead of their music being strong, But the music bussiness is a bussiness and that I totally understand. In reality an artist Works his way up to the top with their music and their will,'Same with me."
