What 3 things does anyone starting in your industry need to know?

It’s cut throat like my nigga Soulja Slim used to say, it’s really a kill or be killed world you got your own back in this shit, and believe in yourself before the world does

What would you do differently if you were starting in your industry now?

I would have put myself out there more I spent a lot of time thinking my talent could get me out there knowing that’s not the case in 2022

Which people or books have had the most influence on your growth and why?

Well people anyone who knows me knows Lil Wayne my favorite rapper he influenced me since young, he practically taught me how to rap damn near, and books well besides the Bible “She Comes First” I like to please a woman

What would you say is the #1 key to success in your music career?

Well the success that is coming to fruition I would say is God

Talk about the biggest failure you’ve had. What did you learn from it?

The biggest failure I had was meeting DJ Khaled and not getting signed right there he told me “I’m a little busy right now” as kinda like a nice way to tell me it’s a dub that taught me to believe in myself and you don’t need no man to obtain success

My biggest success story was making money off my music granted it was a little money but still money none the less I think success is having the world appreciate your art while in the midst of that taking care of your family

What keeps you going when things get tough in the music industry?

Simple my love and passion for it keeps me going like the tour I’m on now is called “Music Saved my Life” music is really my therapy

What made you pursue being an artist full-time?

Seeing the rappers I grew up on inspire me and growing out of the “idol” phase I said I fuck it I could do it myself

Would you sign to a record label?

Honestly, I always said no and I would prefer to not sign but the cold hard truth is this shit cost money fans don’t understand how the business works this shit cost money so yes I would prefer to not sign but if the opportunity presents itself I might just sign
