Exclusive Interview
Tell us about where you are from and how you got to this position today.
I’m from Washington, DC. I got to the position I’m at today by faith, grinding, and determination. I’m still not at the position I want to be yet, but I’m on my way.
Tell us more about the current song you are promoting to everyone.
Well this song is called “All of the lights.” The beat is slightly different from the original version with a go go sound to it. This track is about my determination to make it to the highest level possible in the industry and how I’m on a mission to change the world.
Tell us about one of the hardest challenges you had to face in the industry?
In the Indy Industry one of the hardest challenges I’ve had to face is working a part-time job and paying for everything on my own: music equipment, original beats, and anything else needed. I even help pay bills at home so it’s not easy because things get expensive.
What was one of the biggest set backs in your career and how did you bounce back?
One of my biggest setbacks has definitely been school. Not saying that this is a bad thing, but my heart is really in this music sh*t so having to think about schoolwork all the time can be frustrating and stressful. I bounce back by prioritizing my time. Putting in work, school wise and musically, even if that means staying up late nights I do my best to make it work.
What are some things artists need to be careful of?
Some things I think artist need to be careful of is trying to be something they’re not. Some artist try to be like someone else just because something specific is working for them. What they do may not work for you and vice versa. Not saying don’t try anything new, just don’t completely copy another person. We are all blessed with uniqueness so don’t be afraid to show it.
What suggestions do you have for other artists like yourself?
For all serious independent artists, just keeping grinding. Make every move count and expand your mind. Work smart not hard and progress will show for a fact. Good music speaks for itself.
What is one of your favorite ways to promote yourself and your music?
One of my favorite ways to promote myself is at shows. I like promoting on Facebook and Twitter as well, but when you’re able to physically show your face and your skills on a stage in front of others, people are able to connect with you on a more personal level which is always a plus.
Where can people visit you?
I’m everywhere. You can follow me on:
