What is the meaning or origin behind the name Pigeon John?
Pigeon John: My real name is John. Back in Inglewood, I wanted a cool rap name and I was going by John at the time. It wasnt too hot. A friend of mine had seen the TV series Roots and there is a character named Chicken George. My friend got the idea and told me that I should call myself Chicken John. His mom overheard it. We were kids at the time. She poked her head into the kitchen and told me that I looked more like a pigeon. It just kind of stuck. MVRemix: There is a sincere vulnerability within your music. While many other emcees rap about how they always get women, are never turned down, and can accomplish anything, you rhyme about getting rejected, dissed, and feeling isolated. Was this vulnerability something you consciously added into your music or did it just came out? Pigeon John: I think it is from me growing up. For me, when I was a kid, I was just finding out who I was. That pretty much defined me for the rest of my life, for the most part. These are key things that happen
