What first drew you into music?

What drew me to music was Prodigy of Mobb Deep he did a solo album called H.N.I.C. I was around 10 years old when that came out. My older brother uses to blast it out loud. At first, I didn’t like the album it was so dark and gritty, but the more I heard it I started to like the album and from that point started to fall in love with Hip Hop and led to other musical genres. That was the opener from that it led to me start freestyling in my room plus experiment musically.

Your track “Bounce 2k19” is absolutely amazing! How did you achieve such a great signature sound in such a short time? Also, what is your creative process like?

I take the craft seriously and always keep finding ways to improve as an artist. If I am not creating music I am listening to music it varies (Dancehall, RNB, Rare Grooves, Grime, UK Drill, Urban, Pop) just to name a few or even watch something regarding about music (documentary, lives performance, In-studio session) by doing this help me to mould my signature style. My creative process first thing I do is vibe with the beat if I get that tingly feeling then I know that the beat that I am going to create something on.

The next step that I process that I do is break the beat down, and see where I can place 4 bar hook. Once I create a hook I am happy with that becomes the main concept for my song, then the next step is the create two 16 bar verses. I do it in segments (2x 4 groups of 4 bars) that makes 16 bar verses and that how my creative process is like.

Going over your Soundcloud we can tell you love experimenting with new sounds. Can you tell us more about your studio setup and some of your favorite plugins/instruments? 

Well, I go to a professional studio called crypt studio in London, England. It is there where they do the magic (mixing engineer) to make me sound so sharp using the lasts edition of Pro Tools and state of the art music equipment.

Your music sounds very organic and authentic. Do you play any real-life instruments?

Thank you so much, and I don’t I am afraid but I would love to learn how to play the piano just to throw that one out there lol.    

What are your musical goals for the future?

To be known artist and to be respected by all with passion and craft that I bring to the table. With God by my side try and obtain all musical awards Grammys, etc. Hopefully, headline and have my on tour plus give you 5 star classic of a full album. 

What are your goals for the coming months? Any upcoming projects we can get excited about?

Keeping dropping some fire singles to melt your eardrums keep the pressure and feed you guys with top quality music, once the music is right then the rest would fall into place. I do have an upcoming project coming out It Is called Infectious Vibes. It going to be on the vibes of the track I have recently released as you know It called Bounce 2K19 so be on the lookout for that.
