Please tell our readers who you are and what you do?
I'm an artist from NYC out of the Bronx that promotes positivity and a believer in the revolution against negativity while striving to bring the people together for the common goal of helping to make the world a better place for this generation and the ones that come afterwards.
How would you describe your style and genre?
My style of music varies. It sometimes has that edgy hardcore "trap" sound but I try to always make sure it has some type of knowledge for the people to learn from. I usually like to put out that conscious vibe with that revolutionary stand against the establishment lyrics mixed with positive lessons to help raise the spirits of the people that are going through a tuff time in their lives.
Who are your biggest influences and idols … and why? Do you have any idols? Are you a super fan of anyone? (Dead or alive, musician or non-musician)
My biggest influences are Kendrick Lamar, Logic, J. Cole, Big Krit, Vince Staples, now a days. They all have that message and are part of the fight to raise awareness and open the minds of the people in general. They all have a great sound and inspire me with their lyrics to be a better me and make better music than what I made before.
What´s new right now? What should our readers know about that is coming up from you?
I'm working on releasing my latest project call "Wise Tape" it has 16 great tracks that I am extremely proud of full of messages and dope lyrics to keep you wanting more and will have you anticipating the next project. Till the release I have been and will continue to drop singles on my SoundCloud so be sure to check those out in the meantime.

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?
My biggest mistake was trying to make music like other artists that didn't fit the way I was actually feeling. Don't sell yourself short. If there is a message that you want to pus out there for the people do it! That's what makes music great. The different styles and views is what the industry is missing. It's ok to be inspired and use what you like from other artists but try not to be a carbon copy of someone else's work. Put your own twist and make sure you stay true to yourself. Say the things that you have on your heart instead.
