Matthew Antelmi Patone, a 24 year old New Yorker, who goes by the stage name “Kritikal”, has the pop feel of The Black Eyed Peas and the raspy melodic style of Ja-Rule. Kritikal has been very busy spreading his music. From NY to MIA, he has been hard at work writing and performing. Kritikal cites a friendly disagreement with a long time friend over who could write the best rhymes as his initial reason for writing his first raps. “My friend was persistent that it wasn’t easy to rap, I decided to prove him wrong and after writing a couple of verses, and getting all the good feedback that I did, I just stuck with it.”

An inspiration to his music, his brother has really played a big role in many of the tracks found on each of his albums. He cites the many situations he’s seen throughout his upbringing for the creative evolution of his music. His first song, called ‘Verbally Vicious’ was all about bragging about how much nicer he was at rapping than anyone else doing it. “After I listen to a song, I think how can I improve on this? And most times I just end up writing a new song.” Since his first song 12 years ago, he’s been the mastermind behind 5 full-length cd’s.

These days Kritikal continues to build his following with performances at Avalon, Dublin Pub, Aqua Lounge, Cylo Blu Lounge, Sultana, Speed, Art Cypher, Karma Lounge, Illusions, Unique Lounge in NY the 08’ Funk Master Flex Car Show and Cagneys in New Jersey. He has also performed at Rhythm and Flow in Orlando and White Diamond in Miami as well as opening up for PR Terrorist (of killa army).
