Artist Statement
As a hip-hop song-writer and producer, I create music
because it is a way for me to reach peopleall around the
world. I use it as a method of speaking on real life issues
as well as talking about some of my own experiences that
I wouldn’t otherwise talk about. My music is a form of
therapy for myself and hopefullymy audience. If I can
reach peopleand help them through struggles or tough
times and let them know they aren’t alone then I will have
done my job as an artist.
The way I select sounds, themes and conceptsis by sitting
down and freeing my mind. I’ll close my eyes and look to
see something, a vision or an idea. I either write, or create
beats, but I do so by lettinggo of control. As things start
to develop I stop and refocus. I redefine what it is I want
out of the project and jump back in.
I am currentlyworking on puttingtogether a mixtape. I
have been experimenting with different methods of
delivery, different rhyme schemes, clever wordplay, vivid
imagery, as well as clear and concise lyrics that hopefully
cause the audience to think and connect with my music in
a way that they feel like they know me.
