Growing up in Walnut Park and running through Pagedale as well, I was surrounded by both the raw realities of the streets and the deep-rooted culture of Hip-Hop and some of the realities we experienced living in impoverished communities with a lack of access to certain resources. The city was rough, but it shaped my resilience and creativity. Music was always a part of my world, whether it was hearing beats in the neighborhood or writing my own lyrics to help me process life as I seen it. St. Louis is a place where you have to learn how to be strong, and that''s reflected in the way I move in the industry today.
--The spark that made me want to make music/records:While growing up, I listened to so much music everywhere I went! Whether I was home, away from home, with my parents or by myself, I stayed listening to artists like 2Pac, Biggie, Three 6 Mafia, and Lil'' Wayne. Eventually, I started to write my own lyrics because I just felt like I could do it myself as a hobby. The hobby had grown into a passion so much that I began to produce beats for myself on FL Studio 5. With me naturally not being much of a talker, it was the best way for me to express what I seen and felt growing up. Hip-hop in the ''90s and early 2000s had a major influence on me, and I wanted to tell my own story through music.
--Explain your style and sound:
My sound is a blend of street energy and spiritual depth-Midwest Hip-Hop with an authentic message. It''s real and rooted in truth. Think of a mix between gritty storytelling and uplifting inspiration. Sonically, I love heavy 808s and beats that hit hard while still allowing room for lyrics.
--Outside of music, what do I do for fun:
When I''m not working on music, I''m usually spending time with family for fun and there''s a certain joy I get from helping other artists grow as well.
--Any mixtape or EP/album coming soon?Definitely! I''m working on a collection of songs that I really can''t speak on at the moment but I will post about it as soon as we start moving the songs publicly.
