As part of The 5th L, he has performed on BET's Lyric Cafe' and shared stages with artists such as Musiq Soulchild, Saul Williams, Ursula Rucker, Raheem DeVaughn, Bill Cosby, and KRS One. The Dri Fish is also actively involved in using his talents to serve his community -- he participates in programs designed to introduce creative writing to students, and facilitates a violence intervention program at The University of Maryland Shock Trauma Center (VIP).

Fuck your run way model lyrics all about being cute/ I never do this to look good/ I do this for those who just can't fit in, but still comfortable in their shoes/ been spit out and chewed/ die on a mic in a booth/rhyme tight enough to be a noose/ strangle lies with the truth/ do it live whether I hear cheers or booooos

In fact, I think the last time I saw you was at the Nola Cafe in Westminster, MD. Ron Williams and myself ran into you.
Blessings, Peace, Safety, and One Love, bro STAY STRONG
