I know who I am but do you know who I am? I’m Omari Walker. Nobody cares about Omari though. They want to know who MrDraMatic is. To be honest with you, Omari is trying to do the same thing. It’s coming to the point in my music career were I have to put some serious thought into the image/persona of MrDraMatic.
This blog is more of a brainstorming session with the committee in my head. This committee includes pre-established personas such as Sgt Walker, Romalli, and Rufuss (don’t ask, let’s just say I got a few nicknames in the Army). We have regular discussions (arguments) regarding the direction of MrDraMatic. Now, we’re all behind MrD taking point, it’s just how will he go about it?
Questions in the dark
Questions we ask me are: What is MrDraMatic about? Is he a thug? Is he a geek? Should we just let loose and let the public figure it out? These questions and more like them ramble around in my head with every statues update and every blog posts. The more fans and attention I get, the heavier these questions become. So, it’s time to start spending less energy in programming music and more on programming MrDraMatic.
I think the best place to start is to focus on the things that MrDraMatic is not. MrDraMatic is not a gangster, thug, or bully. I try to respect everyone and MrDraMatic is going to follow in that pattern. Even though all of my personalities don’t share the same respect, they agree that MrDraMatic should. MrDraMatic doesn’t give a damn about politics. Actually, I should correct that: MrDraMatic only cares about politics as it pertains to world domination.
Now, we should probably start thinking about a couple of things that MrDramatic is. MrDraMatic is a believer in yin-yang, karma, and all things mystical. When I designed my logo, the main thoughts that I had in mind was balance. Thinking on it now, I think the logo really does bring across MrDraMatic’s pure sarcastic nature. MrDraMatic is a little bit (maybe a lot) crazy. Having a committee of personalities in your head fighting for dominance doesn’t actually scream sanity (ignore any “what is sanity” questions that pop into your head right now).
MrDraMatic is not Omari
The biggest difference between Omari and MrDraMatic though, is that Omari can’t stand games as MrDraMatic LOVES “The Game.” Omari would be most comfortable sitting at home playing Final Fantasy, though. MrDraMatic is a social butterfly online and off. He craves attention and must have it. Sometimes it’s actually a bit annoying. I do separate the two because MrDraMatic doesn’t give you the full picture of who Omari is, and I don’t want to lose myself in some super-ego persona.
Maybe I should think of MrDraMatic as a puppet with my other personalities taking turns holding the strings. Anyways, I would love to hear your input as we continue on this adventure. Friends help influence personalities and it’s no different with MrDraMatic.
Thanks for joining me in the madness in my head, and being MrDraMatic’s friend combo bonus +750.
