Q When Do Your Creative Ideas Usually Come To You?
A WHEN I HEAR THE BEAT. THE BEAT TALKS TO ME. THE BEAT SAYS ALOT BECAUSE IF IM NOT “MOVED” OR INSPIRED BY THE BEAT THEN I CAN’T GET WITH IT. THE BEAT MUST MOVE ME. IF IM NOT MOVED BY THE BEAT THEN IM FORCING. IF IM FORCING THEN ITS NOT NATURAL TO ME. MOST PEOPLE DONT LIKE TO BE FORCED TO DO ANYTHING. THAT NORMALLY MEANS THAT THE PERSON REALLY DIDN’T WANT TO DO IT ANYWAY ONLY DOING IT BECAUSE THEY “HAVE” TO NOT BECAUSE THEY “WANT” TO
Q What are some of your past projects & how did they benefit you?
A “I AM RENEGADE” AND “IN MY OWN WORDS” ARE SOME OLDER PROJECTS THAT STILL JAM BUT NOBODY HAS NOT REALLY HEARD THOSE PROJECTS
THEN “IT’S ABOUT ME”, “MONEY MITCH” AND MY CURRENT PROJECT “I HUSTLE” HAVE REALLY PROPELLED ME TO ANOTHER LEVEL. MY CITY IS STARTING TO APPRECIATE MY GROWTH AS AN ARTIST AND THATS GRATIFYING. ALOT OF PEOPLE KNOW I DO MUSIC BUT FOR THE LONGEST NEVER TOOK ME SERIOUSLY. NOW SINCE IM GAINING SOME NATIONAL EXPOSURE AND OTHER MUSIC INDUSTRY PROFESSIONALS THAT DO MUSIC FOR A LIVING ARE STARTING TO APPRECIATE THE TALENT, MY GRIND AND HUSTLE FOR THE SUCCESS IS RESPECTED. RIGHT NOW “MONEY MITCH” IS DOING THE DAMAGE TAKING THIS BRAND TO ANOTHER LEVEL AND “I HUSTLE” WILL PICK UP WHERE “MONEY MITCH” LEFT OFF. ALL CLASSICS THOUGH
Q Which one of YOUR songs is YOUR favorite & why?
A MY FAVORITE SONG IS “A TRU ARTIST” OFF MY CURRENT “I HUSTLE” PROJECT
BECAUSE AT THE END OF THE DAY THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT I AM…A TRUE ARTIST. I LIVE BY MY MOTTO.’.NEVER BEING AFRAID TO SAY WHAT’S ON MY MIND AT ANY GIVEN TIME.’ THATS OUTSIDE THE BOOTH OR INSIDE THE BOOTH. I LIVE IT…I BREATHE IT. I EXPRESS MYSELF TO THE FULLEST. I REMAIN RESPECTED AS A PERSON BECAUSE I REMAIN THE SAME. I SPEAK MY MIND AND YOU KNOW EXACTLY WHERE I STAND. THAT’S AS A PERSON. AS AN ARTIST, PUT ME ON ANY TRACK WITH ANY ARTIST..ANY GENRE. I WILL SHOW UP AND THATS JUST WHAT THAT IS
