I’m always inspired by things that I have gone through in my life, the people around me and most importantly, other music! We all have our idols and people that we can turn to within music and I’m no different...
— Symphonic

If you had to describe your music to a stranger in three words, which ones would you select?

Well, as you can see by my hair, I don’t like to limit myself to one thing, or three things. Or anything. But if I had to, I would say energetic, unapologetic and authentic. There’s not a person on this planet that can do Symphonic like I can, but I do encourage you to try!

What are some things that inspire your creativity as an artist when developing new music?

I’m always inspired by things that I have gone through in my life, the people around me and most importantly, other music! We all have our idols and people that we can turn to within music and I’m no different. Oh and cheesecake. That inspires me on the deepest level.

Congratulations on the release of your new single "Set Myself Apart"; it's a certified banger. Tell us what motivated you to write the song and how you connected with Blasian Beats.

Thank you! I wanted to write a song that I could always reference in my catalog that lets me know why I do what I do, and why standing out is always more fun that fitting in. Never been fit in my life so how could I? *insert laugh track*

I first heard Blasian Beats when he produced “For Everybody” by Kash Doll and his ear for instrumentation and building sounds is right up my alley so it only made sense to work with a GOAT!

Can we expect a music video for “Set Myself Apart”?

Yes you sure can. Date not set or anything but making iron clad and quality content is the name of the game and I’m taking over everything musical, visual and so on.

If you could pick any artist to appear on a remix to "Set Myself Apart", who would you pick?

Patti LaBelle. I’m only slightly kidding because could you IMAGINE? That voice? Ah. A treasure.

But in all honesty, I think that me and DaBaby would sound killer on this record together. Or any record for that fact!

What are your thoughts about the rap music scene in Las Vegas in 2020? Are there a lot of venues for emerging artists to perform and is the community supportive of local talent like yourself?

I honestly have no place to answer that. I just relocated here about four months ago and haven’t really stepped onto the scene here yet. The talent here is incredible though. I highly recommend you look into FCCMG (Full Circle Core Music Group) as they are a group of unbelievably talented artists here in Vegas and they were so warm and welcoming to lil (big) ol me!
