-Start of interview-

Tell us about your background, what have you gotten to where you are today?

I started out working at 14 at a McDonalds, from there I took bigger better jobs until I got into gas line construction. I worked there for 6 years 70+ hours a week and landed a spot in the gas company itself. That is where I still am today continuing to work and write music.

Where are you from?

I was born in Seaford, DE, but I am from Dover, DE.

When did you start music?

I started writing music at the age of 14.

How did you get into music?

I was playing around with my cousin and we made a song on a tape recorder (for fun being goofy) I liked it and it started from there.

What is the most challenging thing you have overcome in your life?

I would have to say not knowing my father, knowing my mother and still being put up for adoption at 5 going from foster home to foster home.

Are you currently signed or independent?

I am currently an Independent Artist.

Who inspires you the most musically?

I HAVE to say Michael Jackson and Tupac Shakur.

What do you want people to take away after listening to your music?

I would like them to take away the positive energy I put out into my songs. I want them to listen to my stories and be inspired.

Any new music coming out soon?

Yes, i have a new single coming out in Feb 2021 called Not MY Manz Ft (G Unit Rapper) Kidd Kidd.

What is your greatest achievement as a musician?

My greatest achievement would have to be not only doing a song with 1 of my favorite artist but shooting a video with him…epic!

Do you produce your own music? If not who do you work with?

Yes.

Who is one artist you wish you could work with?

Tyga.

Tell us about any new music you have coming out? When is coming out? What is it about?

I have a single coming out in Feb 2021. It’s basically about people in general a friend that is really not your friend.

What does a day inside your shoes look like?

Really can’t complain I have great life, but if I have to say what it looks like I would say it looks like I was a fortunate person from birth even though it wasn’t that way.
