Brief background:
Where are you from? (neighborhood, city, etc.): I am from LA, California and have been in Minnesota for about a year now.
Who or what motivates your lyrics and why? : My motivation is life in general, family, friends, escaping in the form of music is also a motivation.
If there's one thing we can take away from your music what should it be? What is the goal?: The takeaway should be that I am a real person, this isn’t all just glitz and glamour.
Karma
Twin Cities Hip-hop Corner
Do you have any upcoming projects we should be on the look out for?: The next album that is being worked on is ‘Bad Karma’ which will be a mix of some of my left over tracks from my previous project ‘Good Karma’ as well as some new, updated tracks.
Besides music what are some other things you like to do?: I like to mess around with photography, go to amusement parks, and play video games. I am a homebody and like to watch scary movies.
What artist if any has impacted or influenced you personally? : My biggest musical influences are Aliyah and Michael Jackson.
Describe your music to someone who has never heard it: My music isn’t in a specific category or in a box. I would say that it has a mix of R&B, Hip-hop, and some alternative.
Can you be specific about your process of making music? (Beats first, lyrics?): I get in the booth and start humming out melodies, and then I record several melodies of my humming and choose the best one. From there I try to spit some freestyles over them getting a feel how I’m going to use the melody. Sometimes making and choosing songs happens on complete accident.
If you could work with anyone dead or alive who would it be? : Michael Jackson!
Who or what was your motivation for your album titled 'good karma'? : A mixture of past life events including: past relationships/friendships, also showing myself that I don’t need anybody but myself.
