• "Mission Man is a bizarre, one-man, straight-edged, hip hop act with super-personal lyrics."

"Music With a Positive Message: MU sophomore releases his first album on his own label" by Alison Smith, Oxford Press (don't remember exact date, but I was 18 and a sophomore, so sometime January - April, 1997)

• I can't access my old Geocities Mission Man and Wakefire Records website, and it's probably better that way. It's very interesting to me to read the way I wrote and thought when I was 17. This article is very interesting to me as "Intro To My Mind" had just been released, and gives a great time capsule of where I was at the time, an 18 year old sophomore at Miami University who had not yet delivered his first pizza. Thinking about all of the possible paths my life could have taken, I never would have dreamed I'd be doing what I'm doing now.

Keep coming back to this page, as I'll add any new articles that appear.
