Please tell our readers who you are and what you do?
I'm the Storyteller and the Story. I'm Psychedelic Scorpio, first child born into the rebel crew. I'm just a kid on my Ascension, steady learning about the world as it unfolds in front of me. My mission is to bring people together through the power of music. I'm an Artist as well as a Producer, Audio Engineer and Budding Filmmaker.
How would you describe your influences and how have they changed over the years? Do you feel that changing tastes over years as artistic growth? ?
My biggest influence has and always will be my father who is also a musician and DJ. As far more well known artist Nas has always been a big influence as well as newer Generation artist such as Pro Era and TDE and even the likes of more electronic artist like DJ Rashad and 6Blocc. My taste has changed alot over time, I grew up listening to dancehall reggae and breaks but when i started discovering my own music i was very drawn to 90s Boombap and as time went on and i got older and was exposed to more i eventually got into more electronic music such as Drum n' Bass and Footwork. Usually when it comes to discovering new artist i need to have someone whose opinion i trust show me the music or theres also always the chance stumble upon artist like recently i just kind of stumbled up Khalid while surfing youtube.
What´s new right now?
Im currently working on a big album called 3 Dragons. I cant give away too much but its a big project lots of amazing artist involved it'll be out by the end of the year and I'm really excited for everyone to hear it.

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?
YOUR FIRST TRACKS ARE YOUR MOST IMPORTANT MAKE THEM COUNT. When i started i wasnt the best judge of my own music so i lost my "newness" buzz really fast because the tracks were ok but not good enough to maintain it.

What has been your biggest challenge right now? Have you been able to overcome that challenge? If so, how?
Marketing and Balance. Marketing as far as Social media just because i really dont like social media that much but i understand how necessary it is for a musician but I'm trying and getting better at it… I hope. Balance meaning being able to balance music and the rest of life but that just takes practice and adjusting
