Way2Real Entertainment signee SK Glizzii made some choices that almost cost him his life. More than just a rapper, SK is an artist with his eyes set on longevity. The Fayetteville native recently released his single I Need Somebody under the Way2Real imprint. The single delves into the mind of a man on the road to redemption dealing with past troubles. His family’s musical background helps him turn his pain into passion, then turn that passion into purpose. However, on his single, he speaks candidly about his past substance abuse issues. I Need Somebody is about more than a romantic relationship. SK was charged with First Degree Murder and facing the death penalty. SK blamed his loyalty for putting him in a bad situation that cost him his freedom, and nearly his life. However, he understood the power of God and held himself accountable. He sat in jail for two years fighting his case with a court-appointed lawyer. During his stint in jail, life kept moving. Being locked away gave SK time to reflect. In addition, he became the father of a beautiful baby girl while fighting his case. However, he lost his mother just as he was about to be released. The pain of loss compounded with the stress of his legal situation created extreme mental strain on the new father. He used substances to cope, but they didn’t work. What SK learned was the substances only masked the pain. He went on to beat his case and was released.
