I'm Emperor COOGII, rapper and music producer from Nairobi, Kenya. Biggest deal since the dinosaurs. King Shark. Mr. Versace on the Floor.

What do you do?

I'm one founder and the executive producer of my label, Supreme Life Records. My production has received support from world juggernauts like the Chainsmokers, Showtek and many more.

What´s new right now?

I'm working on a 3 track EP with fellow producers Yoki Hars that will be all over internet platforms soon. I also got solo rap projects and huge collaborations to look forward to. If you in Kenya make sure you come see me and my team perform at the Project Baby event at Karen on the 10th February.

Are you a superfan of anyone? How did you become a superfan? Do you remember how you become a fan and what turned you into super fan? Have you ever thought about why you´re such a fan?

I'm a fan boy for Lil Wayne. No doubt in my mind that he's among the best rappers to ever grace a mic. I became a fan listening to him in the early 2000s but after I began my rap career he became a source of inspiration for me and I guess that's what turned me into a superfan.

What was the biggest mistake you made when you started making music and what would be the number one tip you could give to a newcomer musician?

Before you dive into music as a full time career, study the game. Or get someone who knows the game to coach and manage you. As lavish as the superstar life is, you gotta stay woke.

Do you have good promotion tips for other musicians?

Everything I do is over the top. If you finna work in the industry, you got to draw attention in both your looks and your music. My image and my music stay extra as fuck. I'll wear ice on my neck and rings on every finger and still drop bars on dubstep bangers that get promoters to go "Yes, this is what we want"

What is your number one tip to improve your music production or songwriting skills?

Connections. Connect with juggernauts at the place you want to be. Witness what they do to achieve that clean mix. Watch their videos. Ask questions, don't be afraid. Emulate. Then add your own special twist that makes you unique.
