What's one trait about yourself ?

My frustration, certain things get to me and

.

I've learned in time to keep a cool head and professional approach to anything I do.

Who's someone you would like to work with in the industry, and why?

Someone I've always been interested in working with is one Drake's producers, "40". I've listened to Drake ever since the, "Comeback Season" era and to witness his sound fluctuate over his past projects has been astounding and for me to hope that I meet someone that I can have that chemistry with or 40 himself.

Who were some of your biggest influences that are in the same field you are in?

My biggest influences would have to Drake, Kanye and Kid Ink. Haha I don't really have too many influences.

Compare yourself to some one that is more established, who would that be and why?

Thats tough, my style has always been compared but I can't really say who to pinpoint. More commonly, I've received more on how I sound like Wiz, Drake and Kanye predominately.

What made you want to get into the business?

Music starting becoming more of my life as I got older and soon became something that I was willing to put my time into and learn and grow before my eyes.

What is the most difficult thing you have had to endure in life or in the industry?

Relationships...I would say for the most part, people change around you or dislike what you've become in order to to succeed in music. Sometimes its tough, because its individuals you care about or everyone wants to point the finger at you.
