Reppin: Queens, NYC

My style and/or skills have been compared to: People compare me to different rappers all of the time and I respect that. My sound is my own but so many artists inspire me my music can’t help but reflect that. Each song is inspired by my everyday life, whether it is my personal experiences or the experiences of the people around me. My music comes from a real place.

My standout records and/or moments have been: I remember back in November 2011 when we dropped the video for Queens Kids & it was posted everywhere. That’s when things started to change and we started to build a buzz. Different people started to hit me up to show love and that meant a lot because by that time I’d been recording for about 2 years.

I’m gonna change the game by: Staying true to myself & making sure that the music is as good as possible. I grew up watching the moves of people like Hov and Diddy and I have learned from what they did to change the game. I plan to create my own lane and focus on my own brand as a artist. I want to create opportunities for artists like myself in the future because there is so much talent out there but not that many outlets.

I’d Like to Work With: At the top of my list are Nas & Q-tip because they are legends where I’m from. Some of the producers I want to work are Ski Beatz, Pete Rock, Bink, Sbtrkt they all make great music and have their own sound. Some artists I would like to work with are Kendrick Lamar, Kanye, Lauryn Hill & thats just off the top of my head but I want to work with as many talented people as possible

My goal in hip-hop is: To be the greatest to ever do it, every rapper enters this game with that goal & if you don't do that then you will never reach your full potential. I’m in love with hip-hop and I plan to.

I’m gonna be the next: Hip-hop legend
