Read the Drakula Interview below and share it on social media.
Please tell our readers who you are and what you do?
My stage name is Drakula and I am a rising artist from Dallas, Texas. I have only been a professional musician since September, 2017 but I have a good handful of singles out now, available everywhere. I have my first solo album called Vampire Etiquette releasing in May. I am a singer, songwriter, rapper, performer and model. All of my social media platforms will be included in this interview.
Check them out to receive a better idea of who I am and what I am doing in music.
How would you describe your influences and how have they changed over the years?
I am influenced by horror movies, emotions and the weather on this planet. I have a very different sound in my music because I love the supernatural energy. I listen to Hip hop, R&B, Rock, Pop and EDM. I can make a song in almost every genre. I am versatile with my creative process.
What´s new right now?
Currently, I am finishing my first solo album called Vampire Etiquette which is releasing in May. I have a handful of other collaborations in music with other artists and producers. Follow me on my social media platforms to keep up with my movement in the city. I also will be included in a lot of live shows with other local artists. I am creating music that is unpredictable and very surprising. It's time that artists learn to have fun with their music.

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?
My favorite artist of all time is Michael Jackson. I am a King of Pop Superfan! I love that man and his legacy. He was so misunderstood and it is really sad he was gone too soon. RIP I became a fan of MJ when I heard his official studio album titled Invincible. My favorite song is You Rock My World. After that, I fell in love with his older albums too. His posthumous releases too are very impressive. I have some references to MJ in my own music. He still inspires me so much. Michael Jackson forever.

What is your number one tip to improve your music production or songwriting skills?
I come across writer's block sometimes, which means I have trouble writing lyrics. I usually listen to Lil Wayne (my favorite rapper of all time since 2007) to cure my writer's block. His metaphors and stories allow me to unlock some new lyrics and new flows.
