Let’s dive a little deeper into You, the artist and your music. What attracted you to this genre(s) or style(s)?
Hip Hop and Rap has always been my favorite. 90s baby. Developed my style with hate of being “Labeled” and called the same. Had a little harmony which leads to me loving and making pop and pop rap.
What led you into this journey with music? And further, what drives you to push it out to the public?
