In the artist’s words:
Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. I remember my mom helping me write a remix to Fat Joe's "Lean Back" and telling my dad the rap over the jail call at 7 years old, then he wrote me a letter back showing me his format of writing songs. I wrote a song every night to perfect my skills.
What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? JAY-Z, The Dynasty: Roc La Familia Lil Wayne, Tha Carter III Nas, God's Son These 3 albums birthed my style & creativity. "The Dynasty" made me fall in love with rap. "God's Son" made me admire the in-depth messages in rap. "The Carter III" made me understand how creative you can be in rap.
Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “Baby 9” I created this song from a place of tiredness & pain while experimenting using my voice.
What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? Recording in front of Grandmaster Flash was ineffable. I told him when he was listening to some pre-recorded songs that I was going to make him feel young. He watched me record & when I got out the booth, he ran and hugged me. Thats all I needed.
Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? I want to record with Jasmine Sullivan, Lil Wayne & Chrisette Michelle on one song. Also, I want to record a song with Keyshia Cole.
