๐ญ. Where are you from and what is your hobby?
I am from Lynn Massachusetts. I have a whole list of hobbies. I make comedy skits, model, and play piano. Piano is definitely my favorite hobby
๐ฎ. How did your get into music?
Iโve always loved music. I initially only wrote poems and would share them with my friends. After a while my friends started telling me to try music because my poems were really good. I tried it out and fell in love with it. Iโve been making music for almost a year now and I donโt see myself doing anything else. I really do love it
๐ฏ. Who are your biggest influences?
Eminem, Linkin Park, and Vanoss. I had a very sad and rough childhood. It was filled with sadness. To pick myself up I would listen to either Eminem or Linkin Park. If listening to them didnโt help me, I would watch Vanoss. In a sense, they were my motivators. They brought me up when I was feeling down. I want to be that person for others who may be going through what I went through.
4. What are your goals in the music industry?
My goal is to touch as many lives as I can. I want to inspire millions of people to live the life they want to live. I want to motivate people to follow their passion and dreams. I want to be the inspiration some people may lack within themselves.
5. If you could choose a location to perform at, what would it be?
I want to perform back in Ibadan, Nigeria, my home town. It would be amazing to go back to my country and perform for them.
6. What is your all-time favorite song?
Cleaning Out My Closet by Eminem. Like I said before, I had a rough childhood. I had to pretend a lot. I was unable to be myself around others so I lived a false persona most of my life. Whenever I listened to this song I felt relieved in a sense. The title says what the song is about; letting what I have hidden out. Iโm who I am this is what I have hidden.
7. Most embarrassing moment?
Back in middle school I farted in class so hard I pooped myself. Luckily it was the end of the day and I ran home immediately after school. My friends made fun of me for the next month.
8. Proudest accomplishment?
It has to be performing at Symphony Hall in Boston. Back in high school, I sang with my Courtet group in front of hundreds of people. It was nerve racking but it was sooo fun. I wish I could go back.
9. What is something about you that might surprise someone who knows you the best?
I have a very weird obsession with animals. Iโm a dedicated subscriber on WATOP, a animal YouTube channel. I stay up till about 2am every night watching the channel. To dive even deeper into the surprise, I LOVE snails. I donโt know too much about snails, but Iโm just completely fascinated by them.
๐ญ๐ฌ. What is your dream collaboration?
My dream collaboration would be a rock/rap song with me Eminem and Linkin park. It would be great to make a song with 2 of my biggest influencers and role models.
