Can you share a pivotal moment in your musical journey?
Well I really never started I came out the womb with a mic 😭 like literally i always did music didn’t matter what part I’ve played almost every instrument in band and orchestra just to learn how to make the sounds myself but I got so good at that it got boring, but in the mist of doing that I met sum people in the schools I was going too that did music and they where cold so I took them as a inspiration and little by little I worked on making music the thing that made me really start was the crowds that would come as soon as we walked in the school the vibe was crazy but I got kicked out cause I was beating on everything so that made me wanna do it even more then from there with time I started making music going to the studio my first session was with those same people years later but I noticed how you can sound one way then the engineer can make it into something else so I wanted to learn that and did within 2 years of that I produced for many people in my city even Travis Scott but That wasn’t enough there was a feeling that I would get a sense of disappearing when I’m singing or rapping but I didn’t take it seriously but everyone around me telling me I’m fire and to drop but I waited in till I was good good before I started to release my own music, so now I’ve been dropping music for like a year but doing music it’s been 15+ years.
