Bio
SIYAM Passion and perseverance have led to the release of Siyam's debut LP,
"Sacred Ceremonial Ground," featuring such tracks as "Perfection," "1984,"
and "Just Wanna Rap." Siyam achieved much success from his first release,
"My Soul Purpose," a five song EP. Siyam's EP received a "great album"
review from Jason Pulaski of KUCI 88.9FM, Irvine, California. The EP also
received 3 and 1/2 stars from Liam Thomson of stateofemergency.net based in
England. Siyam (pronounced SEE-YOM) was born on Nov. 19, 1972 at St. John's
Hospital in Santa Monica, Calif. Nine months later, he moved with his
parents to an unincorporated area of Los Angeles County located between the
cities of Arcadia and Monrovia. It was in this suburban area where, at an
early age, he developed a passion for music. During the early 1980's Siyam
caught an appearance by Run-DMC and Jam-Master Jay on Dick Clark's American
Bandstand and it was then that he knew hip-hop music was his destiny. Rakim
and LL Cool J were a big influence on his style.
