In the artistās words:
Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. I remember back in 2012 freestyling at the basketball courts during my high school days, we'd make a circle with my mates, put a beat on and just flow endlessly. It was exhilarating
What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on AppleĀ Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? A-Reece, Reece Effect J. Cole, 2014 Forest Hills Drive Logic, The Incredible True Story These albums really helped shape my production style and flow. With regard to A-Reece's project, it was a case of a product of my environment since I grew up in Botswana, I feel in love with that style of rap.
Find a song of yours on AppleĀ Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. āFeelings (feat. Natasha Meleki)ā It was my very first single, and I felt a certain connection when I was in the studio, I was like "wow, what a way to introduce yourself" I thought. To top it all off, It started an amazing friendship with Natasha and now we're on the same label.
Whatās one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? Getting to perform on stage at the Chocolate Festival in Lusaka, that was this past June. It was cold cause it was during the winter, but best believe our music got the place heated in a good way.
Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? To start my own record label, and go global. Because I'm Zambian, I aspire to charter a path similar to Sampa the Great, and help turn Zambia into the next hub of African greats.
