How it Began:

In 2001, her childhood friend Lucky Lyn a.k.a GAYUMA decided to form her own all girl internet rap group and named it Extinto Femcees. It was Gayuma who gave her the name “IMPAKTITA” and taught her how to rap. Her mentor always said “Listen to the beat, feel the beat, then start writing your lyrics”.

It wasn’t till 2002 when she officially began uploading and sharing her songs on her soundclick acount. She became good friends with other underground artists. Especially Tarantada (Bling Flava). Her very first released song was titled “Ikaw Parin” where she featured with FlipNetwork.

Impaktita was an Extinto Femcee for 6 years straight. When the group disbanded in 2008, she started going Solo. She had been a part of several independent labels on Soundclick but she never did join any other Rap Group. It was Extinto or Nothing.

YOUR INFLUENCES?
Chill, Gayuma,

SO YOU WERE AN INTERNET RAPPER?
- yes and I'm not the least bit ashamed to say that I was and actually I still am in a way because I still accept "collaborations" through vocal/beat transfers by email/yahoo msgr. everything I learned started from being an internet rapper so why deny it ..


WHEN DID SHE ENTER THE UNDERGROUND?
It wasn’t till mid 2010 when Impaktita Finally exposed herself in the Philippines, guided by Mark Anthony “Cinco” Garcia of 5 shotz productionz, her first live performance was in Ermita (10.10.10) – An Event organized by OneGrand Crew (Ermita).

“Rap will always be there .. I’m just doing what I love .. It’s not a permanent thing I know .. But it’s a great way to express .. Like I always say, I’m doing it to express not to impress .. I don’t wanna expect too much of it though, cause expectations lead to disappointment. Just keep doing what you love and if you’re really into it, all the hard work will eventually pay off ~ Impaktita“
