Tention Free : Let’s talk a bit about your work & What motivates you to do your best work as a Music Artist ?

What motivates me to be the best artist possible is the opportunity to impact and influence those who listen to my music. Music, especially hiphop has been such a huge outlet for reaching a large audience since hiphop is shared world wide, i take that opportunity seriously to spread a positive message. My music comes from my poetry and most of my lyrics are written in the form of spoken word poetry. I get inspired by my surroundings and when I write I imagine what people would want to hear in a hiphop song that they haven’t heard yet. I want to be unique and I want to bring back spoken word poetry to hiphop on a mainstream level.

Tention Free : Tell us about your future projects?

As of right now I am working on my Debut Project called “ Unidentified Elements” it will be a mix of spoken word poetry, freestyles ( off the top), and some written work of mine. There will be a lot of Boom-bap, jazz, reggae, and dub influences on the album. My whole intention is to bring back the origins of hiphop and revive the unidentified element of hiphop, poetry.

Tention Free : What made you decide to become an Hip Hop Artist ?

What Inspired me to be a hip hop artist was I was always bullied and made fun of in school for my love of hiphop and music in general. Also Artist like Common, Tupac, Notorious BIG, Tribe Called Quest, Wu Tang Clan, 9th Wonder, J Dilla, Mac Miller, Logic, and Kendrick Lamar inspired me even more to make my own music and when all I got was positive feedback then I realized that I had the potential to influence and motivate people with my music.
