Tell us about your latest releases, what inspired you to create them?
My latest release is one of those timeless projects. One you gotta listen and treat with value. “Trust the Vibes” is full of different vibes and really displays my versatility. I was inspired by life itself and wanted to make an album that reflected the way I’ve been living my life lately. By trusting the vibes , believing in the universe and paying attention to the signs in front and around me. I don’t force anything, from relationships, to decisions , to writing songs. I let it flow and let whatever happens happen. Through all that resulted in “TTV” definitely my greatest project to date. The proof is in the pudding!
What is unique about you and your music?
My music is unique because it’s my story. No one else can tell it, no one else has my ideas, my perspectives, my experiences . All my music is real and is from the heart. What makes me unique is the many different ways I can deliver. I can give you bars which is my specialty, but also give you a catchy hook which is also what I’ve been known to do.
What shaped your music?
Life shaped my music and the people in it! Point blank
Also some of my favorite artist like Wayne, drake, fab, Kendrick, tsu surf j cole and chinx to name a few
When did you realize you were going to make music professionally?
I realized this in 2016. Maybe before that but that’s the time when I finally told myself this is it. Either you going to give it 100% or your not but it’s one or the other. I Went through a rough year that’s year. I lost a close friend to fun violence, also me and my girl friend broke up after 4 years. I was still learning to be a father as well as having beef and tons of other outside distractions. I told myself I’m not getting any younger and now is the time. I had nothing else to loose, and had all the fuel added to my fire that I needed.
What type of music do you listen to?
Im very picky with who I listen to. listen to a lot of R&B and to a select handful of artist normally. I listen to artist that inspire me or that give me something I can feel. I like pain music, I like real music, if you not talking about anything
I’m probably not listening to you
What inspires you to write music?
Life inspires me to write
It kinda sucks but when I’m going through something or when I’m down is when it’s easiest to write
It’s always been therapeutic to me!
What do you do when you don’t do music (creative or otherwise) and that you are passionate about?
If I’m not doing music I’m chasing the bag or wit my family. I got an 8 yr old so I’m with him or just relaxing. Wit the gang, or just watching movies / shows
Been getting back in the gym too and back on the ball court.
Happiness to you is…

What do you wish you were told when you first started making music that you think would help artists just starting out?
