The underground hip hop artist known as "Influence Getem" hails from both the Inwood section of Manhattan, and the Bronx boroughs of New york, where he is widely respected for his outstanding skills as a lyricist and ability to story tell thus exploiting a more raw depiction of life and its occurrences, exhibiting different aspects, views and possible outcomes of particular or random situations at hand using versatility as well as an incredibly unique delivery and energy. Influence Getem strongly urges the youth to stop the violence and senseless killing, and is an advocate for true lyricist/MC's everywhere, inspiring up and coming artist in the process in an attempt to keep hip hop alive. Influence Getem stems from the Dyckman Orchestra. Influence Getem has callaborations with several underground hip hop as well as R&b artist so far in his career and performed at various venues, arenas, prisons, facilities and graced plenty of stages with his presence from the eastcoast to the midwest Oklahoma section and established an online presence throughout the world on all major social networking sites, thus accumulating fanbase from all walks of life. With influences such as Kool G Rap, Ghostface, Pharohe Monch, Black Moon, MOP, BDP, Helta Skelta and others, Influence prides in maintaining a certain essence of the form, and has been writing since the early age of 11. Influence Getem relocated to Tulsa Oklahoma in 1999, returned back to the east coast to pursue his aspirations and later recorded his hit underground single "Moves" with producer and Dj Spoo da Noble then ironically returned to Oklahoma to later on connect with members of the legendary elite group (Medu Netr) then joining forces with ShapeShifta entertainment/Farmleague in 2008, leading him to create "730clique", (a group for talented artist with psychological issues in 2011). Recently, Influence has returned back to his home town (NYC) to make his mark on the east coast once agin and obtain notoriety, thus connecting with original group members of the Dyckman Orchestra, as well as solidify his newly obtained connections. Influence Getem also landed a spot on Kjams 105.3 doing the intro for Dj Mikeman for the 5'Oclock bomb every Wednesday. Look forward to great and amazing things to come from this gifted up and coming artist in the near future, namely, the "Getem n Bundlez project", involving both Influence Getem and acclaimed producer Brok Bundlez, the "Farmleague EP", and the "Hell on paper" album, which will all be available for download just about everywhere on the net and in local stores near you. 2012 marks Influence Getem's debut as entrepreneur and has established numerous businesses and services and has several reputable online stores throughout the world wide web.  

In October of 2017 EDP Records (E Diggz Productions) was formed, consisting of DJ E Diggz, Str8jakkett, Jay Scholla, and Influence Getem, has put in major work, producing hog accolades within a short time frame all while building a reputable name in the culture as a force to be reckoned with.
