In the artist’s words:
Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. Singing with my brothers, guided by my mom, feeling pure family joy. That early spark defined me, even after rejections. Music felt like home.
What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Drake, Take Care (Deluxe Version) John Lennon, Imagine Michael Jackson, Thriller Thriller: Timeless grooves. Every time I hear "Billie Jean", I can't help but move. Take Care: Honest, soulful mix. The album feels like private thoughts he let us in on. Imagine: Simple truth that inspires. Inspires me to create meaningful songs.
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. “Stuck In LA” "Stuck In LA" reveals my inner struggles, seeking purpose amid the grind. It's like baring my soul. The lyrics come from a real place inside me. I was looking for honesty, love, and a reason to keep going.
What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? Releasing my first single, "Alexandra", was huge for me. Waking up to people listening and connecting with it felt like a dream come true. It made all the late nights and doubts worth it. In that moment, I knew I was on the right track.
Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? I still want to grow as an artist, find new sounds, get better at telling my own story through music. I'm also planning to launch a web technology in 2025 to help other musicians. I hope it helps artists share their music effortlessly.
