What’s one reason you are passionate about music and what inspires you?
I have always loved music since I was young. From soul to gospel, calypso to R&B, music was always playing in my household growing up. I always gravitated to hip-hop because of the clever wordplay that you would have to rewind to catch. My music is inspired by life experiences and I aim to convey them in a way that’s insightful and thought provoking.
Who are some of your main musical influences?
My musical influences are wide ranging, including Oscar Peterson, Erykah Badu, Marvin Gaye, Nas, Freddie Gibbs, Black Thought and Prodigy.
Tell us the name of the project you are currently promoting? What inspired this project?
I released two projects in 2022. ‘Persona Non Grata’ in April and ‘Conflict Of Interest’ in December. The inspiration for both projects was the concept of maintaining one’s morals and character regardless the setting and circumstance.
What is this project about in your own words?
The motivation and theme behind ‘Conflict Of Interest’ is exhibiting resilience and finding peace while not being shifted by the different situations that life presents us with.
What’s next for you? Are you working on any upcoming projects we should be on the lookout for? Include some dates if you have them.
In terms of music, the goal this year is to release 2 albums, each being a collaborative effort between myself and producers I have worked with in the past. One album with DDWAVE and another with GreeneryyBeats. No set release date yet but both are in the works.
What message do you hope fans take away from your music and from this project?
As with all of my music, I aim to provide motivation and insight within the references and wordplay. I like to drop jewels within the records that won’t always be caught on the first listen so that people can takeaway something different every time they press play.
