Forensic AKA Deputy Hook’ Em stopped by The Protectors to talk about his career, music, humanizing the badge, and tons of other great topics. Forensic’s new single Relentless is out now on Spotify. PS: Shout out to my friends at Notch Gear and Cruise Customs.
About: If there was one person who could step into the Hip Hop realm and begin to make waves, a cop would be the last person you’d expect. Forensic is a rap artist and active law enforcement officer from California. Forensic uses both his career as a law enforcement officer and his musical talent to give a voice to his brother’s and sister’s in blue as well to bridge the gap between law enforcement and the communities which they serve.
For Forensic, music is not only something he enjoys, but something he feels he needs to do. “I use my music as a means to vent my frustration, to vent the frustrations of my brothers and sisters who do this job across the world, and give them a voice,” Forensic said during an interview with Studio West Recording Studio in San Diego. Forensic focuses his efforts outside of music into community policing by working with an organization named Humanizing the Badge to leave positive impacts within communities across the United States. Through this organization, Forensic has organized community clean ups, met with anti-police protestors to engage in open dialogue and hosted forums with youth to discuss law enforcement/community relations. After two full length albums, Forensic looks to continue to break barriers in the music scene while also continuing to bridge the gap between law enforcement and the communities they serve.
