My father listens to all types of music from rock to funk to old school hip hop. my mother listens to r&b, neo soul, and commercial hip hop. My grandparents turned me on to jazz, classical, and big band music. So with me growing up with pop and punk rock and trap music, I had a wide variety of music growing up.

I was I lover of music at a young age and even a bigger fan of performance. I was always in chorus or theatre threw my school years and that was my first experience with it at a professional level.

I was recently incarcerated and the pain of being locked up, losing family members,losing friends, losing lovers, losing your sanity, losing your way, just losing....has made me become appreciative of Yahweh's blessings.



What artists and albums have influenced your sound?
I have so many influences, don't want to leave any out so I'm going to say that good music is what influences me ....if I can feel the music and it sounds great....it inspires me to do great music so others can feel that feeling aswell.


Why did you decide to pursue music full-time?
I was always told when choosing your career do what you love.
