I'm Faaathom (pronounced fathom), I'm an up and coming artist from Pittsburgh! I actually just released my debut album, Above Below, available on all major platforms & my website as well www.faaathom.com. It can be streamed via these links below:

How would you describe your influences and how have they changed over the years?
I would say I don't necessarily sound like anyone, but I would say some major influences are Isaiah Rashad, Drake, Tyler, The Creator, and KiD CuDi, they definitely helped me understand different sounds as an artist, they've been my greatest teachers thus far. I used to listen to nothing but Eminem, he was definitely my all time favorite rapper at one point, it's kind of funny looking back because now I don't really listen to him at all. Over the years I've found myself more interested in melodies than straight bars and rapping, and I think the changes in my interests reflects that.
What´s new right now?
My new album just came out on September 29th and I've been focused on that ever since but now I'm working on a joint EP with someone else in my group BlenckFace. That should be coming soon. So, follow me on Twitter and be on the look out https://twitter.com/Faaathom
