In the beginning, the nickname Delta Pi Theta (ΔΠΘ), started as a joke among his friends. According to his statements, it was just the initials of the words of a sentence (Δεν Παίζει Θέμα - doesn't matter = everything is fine, but there is another meaning for the word "Θέμα", which can be used as slang for stuff so it may mean also "Short on Stuff"). Along the way he wanted to give a deeper meaning and be more specific, so the "Second Person Sorrowful" emerged, influenced by the theatricality of the term Psychodrama. He was well-known as a conscious underground rapper, especially for his two lo-fi demo solo records (officially re-released in 2010 by Psychodrama07 groupmate Άυλος 542), which were self-released and hard to find in the early and mid 00s. In the late 00s started releasing music under the name "Το Μαύρο Λούκι" (To Mavro Louki), which was influenced by his infamous lifestyle at that time. He was an affiliate member of the group "RNS (6)", with whom they have collaborated on some tracks, but together with Sadomas, another affiliate member of RNS, their good connection led to more collaborations (before and after joining RNS) that ended up forming a band called "2ΚΓ - Dio Kappa Gamma, which an acronym for Διπλή Κόκκινη Γραμμή - Double Red Line, which you may find on the upper right of the special prescript drug's packages).
