Praise Jah for the Garden Variety shows - they helped me get a better idea of the proper talent going down in the Garden State. Also introduced me to the music of Steve Smiff, who dropped Volume 1 of his Street Dreamz series today. Or last night. Fuck it, whenever it dropped, it dropped, and it's fucking ill. - Rockthedub.com-KHal
The concept of this song comes from my desire 2 change myself as a person. I titled it “Kill Yaself”, to say that in order for one to undergo a drastic change you must be willing to assassinate your former self to become who you aspire to be. - MusikReform.com-Krissy B

Bio
Steve "Statik" Smiff
In the new age of music, it sometimes become a difficult task for an artist to separate him/herself from the masses. However with a vast arsenal of styles and lyrical structures, creative concepts and the ability to blend new and school feels. Smiff has started to emerge from the pack on the New Jersey hip hop scene.
2011 was highlighted by several performances, including two Garden Variety shows in Trenton and the Put Up or Shut up battle league in New Brunswick. As well as the release of a mix tape titled Street Dreams v.1 and features on many mix tapes. 2012 was a solid year as well, as Smitty jumped on collabs with the likes of Phace, Sol Zalez, DJ A$harp, Mr Fickle, Skrewtape, El Da Sensei and others. 2013 was a year of transition with personal matters that required a step back from the foreground. Smitty still maintained a solid buzz with more collaborations with Billy Snubbs, Chicago Jones, Muggshot One, Base Bronson and projects with artists from overseas, culminating with a performance at the A List showcase at The Blue Room. The Climate Shift project is nearing completion as Steve prepares for an incredible 2014!
