My Life In A Nutshell is a raw look into who I am, where I’ve been, and what I’ve survived. This album is built on real experiences — growing up with pain, carrying weight I never asked for, and learning life the hard way.

From Detroit scars to military discipline, late nights, broken trust, and moments of clarity, every song tells a piece of the story. This isn’t music made to impress — it’s music made to heal, to vent, and to speak on things I couldn’t say out loud.

The sound lives in emotional melodic rap, where honesty comes first and the feeling matters more than the flex. These songs are for anyone who’s smiled through pain, felt misunderstood, or had to figure life out on their own.

This is my truth.
This is my pain.
This is My Life In A Nutshell.

I’ve been in the U.S. Army since 2020. I came from Detroit never expecting to see the world, but the military showed me more life than I ever imagined — both the good and the painful. The Army gave me structure, pride, and a second family, but it also came with loneliness, loss, and moments that tested my strength in ways I never thought I’d face.
I spent nights in trenches, walked miles just to make it to work, and carried memories that still follow me when the lights go out. I lost battle buddies who are still with me every night before I fall asleep. There were times I wanted to quit, times I felt completely alone, but I kept going as a wounded soldier trying to stay strong.
Now I’m transitioning out of the military and finding my way back to music — the place where I’ve always told the truth. Music is how I process what I’ve lived through, what I couldn’t say out loud, and what I’m still healing from.
