What do you want your legacy in the industry to be?
I want the world to know that anything is possible. Change
is possible, but you have to know it, you have to really truly
feel it. I want people to understand that thought is the most
powerful energy that our human forms posses. Once we all
understand that we can waste less time with all this negativity
and focus on a brighter, more positive future.
What is your greatest strength as you see it at this time?
My greatest strength is my persistence. I refuse to do any less
than what I’m passionate about and what I feel I was put on
this earth to do. I can never settle, settling is for normal people
and I am the antithesis of normalcy.
What do you feel is the greatest misconceptions about what
you do in your industry?
That one is in it for all the wrong reasons, like most people.
But overtime that will change. People will start to see more
genuine, up and coming artist especially from this generation.
We are the revolution.
What do you draw upon for inspiration during the hard
times?
A couple years ago, a friend’s mother gave me a bookmark
during a very dark time in my life saying “This Too Shall
Pass.” That saying has faithfully sang it’s melodies in my head
since that day. I’d always heard it but never truly understood it
until then. When I feel down on myself or helpless, I remember that it is only a moment and I am here to do things bigger
than myself, and the phrase, “this too shall pass” resonates in
my conscience over and over. Get’s me through my slump every time (with a little help from some of my favorite records).
What can you see from your experience that holds a lot of
people back in your industry?
Lack of self confidence and listening to other people. People
still don’t seem to realize that no one knows what’s best for you
