what inspired you to start making music, and when did it first feel like your dream was actually possible?

Life challenges if I’m being honest, going through sh*t is what builds a story so it just made me wanna talk about it. I felt it was possible when I first when to LA, I was in front of people who could make your dreams come true.

what drew you away from adopting the typical sound of the area and how did you develop your own sound in general?

Just being myself for real. And I'm going to be honest, me gettinG high as f*ck helped me develop my sound. Now I can do this sh*t sober or under the influence, cause being under the influence unlocked some stuff I probably wouldn’t have did sober.

can you describe the moment in your life or career that caused a shift in your mentality towards how you approached your craft?

When someone on a higher level told me "keep going" and I was getting acknowledged a little bit, I just kept it going even though I did wanna quit this sh*t on the slick, was about ready to give this shit up not going to lie.

if not for music, where do you feel like you would be and what do you think you would be doing right now?

I’ll still be doing what I’m doing now, just without me making music for real, product of my environment to summarize it.

where do you picture yourself five years from now?

Selling out shows, going on tour, maybe getting a Grammy award, having my real estate business jumping and being a star for real, doing super star shit.

if you had one last idea, statement or thought to give to the world, what would it be?

Be you and don’t give a fuck what nobody says, Only God has a say so.
