Read the Young Ivory Interview below and share it on social media.
Please tell our readers who you are and what you do?
I'm Young Ivory Artist/Producer from Phoenix, AZ. I been recording since 7th grade with brother my DJ Take2 on FL Studio and took it serious my Freshman year in college while playing football. Did my first show opening for Talib KweliI, from there started sharing the stage with Dave East, Ty Dolla $ign, Denzel Curry and more. I do this to tell more then just my story but what's going on in this world today. I been ghost taking care of personal life but always kept producing and recording while building my brand Creative Heist. I'm really ready to deliver this music to the fans. I haven't dropped a full project in while so it's only right.
How would you describe your influences and how have they changed over the years?
My Influences is like the best All Star team you could have with people from the West and East. My influences changed over the years by situations I go through, not saying that one of the people I look up to drop on the list or something but more like his or her music was talking to me helping me through stages of life. I did change my taste over time but not that long ago I realized I wasn't doing me and thats what I'm getting back to, doing me.
What´s new right now?
Right now I'm putting a couple projects together ill be releasing. I got a team to introduce to my fans. I got my brother from West Covina, CA and my brother Koss from Detroit, MI. Pending on shows right now
