It's time for the Romeo Show: Mario Thompson

Outside of school I spend most of my time working on music. Making music is my passion and has been since I was about nine years old. I spend most of my time on my music because hard work pays off, and I also enjoy doing it. What made me want to get into music was a television show I saw. A rapper called “lil Romeo” had a TV show when I was younger. I remember watching the first episode seeing how him and his siblings had a garage band and made their own music. This inspired me because it looked so fun and I thought that if these kids can make music so can I. That night I wrote my first song about riding my bike. I still remember every word to that song but I will not share because of embarrassment. It’s amazing how something so simple can inspire someone and manipulate what they do with their life.
