Sharp Skills handled his business at the 2011 Merge Summit showcase this past Friday, August 19th. Sharp stood confidently as he performed "Strength", a song off his forthcoming album Anno Rebelio, in front of a panel of judges and a packed house of showcase attendees. No band, no DJ, no hype man, it was just Sharp Skills with a microphone and he commanded the stage and gave the crowd something to yell for as he declared that he remains strong despite the various adversities life brings his way. Dressed in all black, with eyes veiled behind dark sunglasses, Sharp showed that he is a force to be reckoned with in the Los Angeles music scene and he can hold his own with little to no musical accompaniment. The judges (industry heads) had nothing but positive feedback as they critiqued his performance. Mali Music, one of the judges said "Very hip hop, very dope" and another judge said "I can tell that you take what you do very serious and that you are not just rapping this, but living it too". A very influential leader whispered to Sharp afterwards, "You are the hottest thing out and we need to get this music out there". With another huge notch under his belt, it is safe to say that Sharp Skills is well on his way to success.
