“Growing up in West Philly influenced me to think outside the box when creating music...”
Salute to you on the release of your new song "In My Bag"; tell us about your creative process for it and how you decided on the beat by Turk Money.
I was looking for beats on YouTube and stumbled upon it. When I first heard it, the lyrics immediately came to my head then I began writing.
I decided on the beat because it was something uptempo.
"In My Bag" will be featured on your upcoming project "Rebirth Of The Cool”. What about Miles Davis led you to create a tribute to him?
His restless spirit creating innovative music that was different from his last work, his fashion sense that inspired me a lot as not only a artist but a person. Finally, his lesson on creating what’s not there instead of what’s already there.
How would you say that your hometown, specifically West Philly, influences the music that you create? Also, who are some artists from your city that have inspired you throughout the years?
Growing up in West Philly influenced me to think outside the box when creating music.
Some of the artists that inspired me in the city are Shawn Smith, Meek Mill and Nitro Nix.
Along with the "Rebirth Of The Cool" project in development, what are some of your goals musically for this year?
My goals musically are to record more innovative music, go out to perform more often and get more recognition for my music.
If you had to describe your music to a stranger in three words, which ones would you select?
Prolific, Innovative, Musician
