Ok… so now we're going to get a little bit personal by asking you what do you like to do in your free time?
Lets see... My free time I'm always on the COMPUTER or on the sidekick just keeping in touch with the fans and everything. You can usually catch me going through beats and stuff. Thats what I'm always doing
What made you want to become a musician? Where did you get your start in the industry?
I started out singing in church when I was little. But as I got older I realized i couldnt really SING (haha) but i always loved music and Rap is a way for me to really connect with people by simply letting my emotions OUT.
What is your music background?
I've been involved in music since i can remember honestly. My uncle use to have a lil tape recorder that he would play music to and I'd rap over lol. But to make a long story short I started recording real songs in middle school and passing them out in school. I ended up dropping my first mixtape in 9th grade and things just took off from there
Who are your influences? Who were some of your inspirations growing up?
I alwayssssss loved jayz. Thats my all time favorite hands down. Anything jayz touches is hot to me
What do you consider to be your greatest asset to this music industry?
I think me overall is just different. Yeah there are a few female artists out that rap. But as far as YOUNG, you can say there is lil mama and thats it. But really If you listen to our music the content is different. I think she is very talented but I havent made no "lipgloss" music. I'm here for longevity.

My target audience is anywhere from ages 16-25. I have the deep, independent songs for my female fans and the boys like lyricism
Who would you most compare your style to?

Who did you learn from the most?
I really learned a lot from myself. I had been managing myself for a long time so I've made a lot of mistakes that I learned from. I lost money... lost friends. Its just apart of the game.
