What made you to start writing music?
A combination of a lot of things but mostly just in the last 3 years has been the hardest on me as a person and I used music to help me get thru. I have a friend that was recently departed that I showed him some riffs and told him that I wanted to do with them and he said yeah you really need to do this. Also another local artist got me into the studio on a song with him and after that it was kind of like I was hooked and I knew that that is what I wanted to do. I started out writing poems in Middle School and over time it's evolved in my 9th and 10th grade years I started writing music, not great but it was music, and then I started writing music with beats and over time it gradually got better and my flow got better.
Can you tell me about how you come up with your lyrics?
I sit and listen to beats or sometimes I just sit and wait as it slowly comes to me. Sometimes it's all at once sometimes it's over time I believe that writing different days gives you different perspectives. I've had some come to me quickly and some that have taken some time and regardless of the process it's all something I feel like I need to say
