How did you get started with your music? Ever since I first left church, I got inspired by how people moved with the music, and How it touched them in such a way. I wanted to be that person who made people sing, and feel the emotions of a song. Ever since then, music was in me. Nothing could stop me from falling in love with music, or even making it.

What are you currently working on? I’m currently working on my first album which is titled “Greater than Potential”

What kind of music do you listen to and how does it influence your music? I listen to all kinds of music. My mom listened to R&B and hip hop, and My dad who is Cuban, got me into reggaeton. So I try to mix a little of Reggaeton and hip hop together to make one culturally diverse CD.

What’s your opinion on mainstream music today? I mean, music is music, if you can get somebody to sing along with your lyrics, and nod their head to it, then you have my respect.

Who do you admire? Man, I admire a lot of people. Well for one my mom, Because if it wasn’t for her, I would probably be out here on these streets. But I always looked up to other artists such as T.I., 2Pac, Bone Thugs N Harmony, Notorious B.I.G., Bob Marley, and I’ve always loved The Temptations.

Why would people want to listen to your music over someone else’s? Because in my music, I’m telling a story, a story that some people can relate to. And those can’t relate to it can understand What I go through, in life. My music is real, nothing fake. Everything I say in my songs I’ve done.

Who have you worked with and how have they affected your work? I’ve worked with a wonderful Unsigned Artists named Blaq Fuego. He is Currently working on a song of mine that’s to be featured on my next album. I’ve worked with Epic, Vybe, two wonderful producers.

What is your local music scene like? My local music scene is really big. Mainly because I live in Atlanta, and Atlanta right now is like the music Mecca at this point in time. I’m known by a lot of people Locally.

What suggestions do you have for other artists in the music industry? To never ever give up. If somebody criticizes your work, you tell them, okay, thank you, and get back to grinding. Because if you don’t have the faith and determination to make it, you might as well call it quits.
