1. Tell us about yourself and your music?

I'm a family man, motivated, and hard working type of guy. Since I was young, I've always visualized amounting to something phenomenal. For me, music and family were the only things that kept me going. Being introduced to the world of hip hop really changed my life. I remember the first time I picked up a pen I was about 12. Ever sine then I've been working on myself as an artist to constantly grow. Ya know, I matured very young and was playing the role of a father to my siblings and was handed the job of being man of the house. With that being said, there was never room to be careless. I always have my family on my mind so anything I do, I make sure that they will benefit from my actions. My music is very energetic and up beat. I do my best to make sure it draws people in with the instrumentals and lyrics making them want more every time they listen.


2. How would you describe your sound?

I would say that my sound is derived from a bunch of different sounds. Just some of my inspiration comes from Eminem, Logic, G-Eazy, 50 Cent, Game, Dre, Ace Hood, and many many more. When I'm explaining this to other people I say that it's like a Al Pacino and Ace Hood mix. I get very intense with my inflections while maintaining a up tempo flow. The reason I feel Ace Hood is a great comparison is because besides his flow, he has such a variety of content. He can come with something like "Lord Knows", and turn around and hit you with "Mr. Black Man". He is definitely one of my all time favorites.

3. Talk about the experience making your single?

The "W.Y.M" record was written in like half an hour. When I was going through different producers and instrumentals, I was looking for something hard hitting and in your face. I knew this record had to be filthy, so I through a big modern twist on the hook with the autotune and filter. Tracking that in the studio was a blast because the vibes and energy that the song brought was crazy. It got everybody up and vibeing out while it played through. Once it was finished, I knew that it had to be the single. It was way too catchy not to be.


4. What are you currently working on? Any new projects? Shows?

At the moment I'm working on some new music. I'm planning to release a couple singles and than another project. I'm thinking of doing an LP next with a good amount of content. I really feel like The Major Motives EP allowed me to catch peoples ears and since it's only three tracks, they couldn't wait to hear what else I bring to the table.


5. What has been your biggest highlight in your music career this far?

Honestly, working the incredible people I have over the years has really been such a big blessing. Everyone that was involved in my projects gave it their all and we never half assed anything. Being from Upstate New York, you really have to bust your ass and work because this city yet to be a blimp on any hip hop radar.


6. Name your ideal collaboration: mainstream or independent artist(s)?

If I could collaborate with anybody at this very moment in time, it would probably have to be Logic. This guy goes crazy on his records and I think if him and I worked, the track would be insane.


7. Name something random that people do not know about you?

One thing people probably would never guess about me is that I am a huge believer of thoughts manifest things into your life. For years, I was down and depressed and nothing was going right. Nothing. I knew I had to change my ways so I came across a ton of amazing articles about how thinking and thoughts effects your life and what they can do for you. Ever since then, no matter the circumstance, I always try to see the light and remember my time is coming.


8. What’s one thing you have learned or discovered while being in the indie music scene/industry?

The biggest thing I've learned, and probably the hardest, is just being persistent. It is such a breaking feeling when you spend so much bread, time, and energy on a project and barley anyone notices the work. It sucks. But over time, you just keep making music you love and than things will fall into place. Obviously you have to have the proper marketing strategy and do things efficiently, but just keep grinding. No matter how minimal the response is, keep going.


9. What can we expect from you in the future?

I put my heart into The Major Motives EP, and I continue to do so with every record I do. I'm working on some crazy music now and I plan to do very big things. I'm trying to really expand and reach out to other great artists to make great music. You can expect only the absolute best I can give every time I drop a new record. The grind doesn't stop.
