David Costa was born in hammond indianna on oct 13th 1980. He began writing poetry and songs at the ripe young age of 12. Inpired by songwriters such as tupac shakur, mike patton, michael jackson, and axl rose, costa takes on a unique approach to hip hop. His honesty, agressiveness and unique rhymes and flow take you on a journey through life, love, lust, and death. David Costa touches on a number of different social, spiritual, and philosophical topics while telling the story of a tortured spirit trapped within the soul of an aspiring young artist. Costa is currently in the studio finishing his debut cd ep for skeleton crew entitled "A Dream...And A Plan.", the first chapter in costa's epic tale of The Starving Artist.
