What would you say has been the best or most memorable moment in your career so far?

The most memorable moment in my career was performing at Sullivan Hall in NY for the Hip-Rock event. It was my 1st time performing with a live band and after the interview I felt like it was the turning point in my life where I was really turning music into a career.

What are you working on currently, and what are some of your upcoming projects?

I am currently working on 2 projects. 1 is my mixtape, which will be called "Nephibis Vol. 1." I am a unique artist that has been an outcast my whole life for being different. I have been searching for other artists like me who don't fit into any crowd in order to unite our talents to create a unique form of music. This mixtape will be an introduction to what Nephibis is and an attempt to reach out to those artists through music.

My other project will be an EP titled "Lyrical Painting." I will be working with Street Legal on this project and want to show my creativity on this project. I want people to see that Hip Hop is art and not just some words that sound nice. I really want to demonstrate my poetic style with an abstract presentation, which will also introduce myself to the world.
