Exposed Vocals: So tell us your story. Where did you grow up? What made you decide to become an artist?
I grew up in Newark, NJ and moved back and forth from Philadelphia, PA to NJ. I never decided to become an artist, it just has always been in me. I’m too creative. I always had keyboards around me growing up.
Exposed Vocals: Since everyone was a start-up once, can you give any smaller or local bands or artists looking to get gigs and airplay some tips?
Always believe in yourself and the people around you and take no bullshit.
Exposed Vocals: Do you ever make mistakes during performances? How do you handle that?
Just keep sticking through with it because most of the time when you mess up no one noticed but you.

I haven’t toured yet but my first two performances were in front of 5,000 + people in NYC.

I would perform in NYC with Travis Scott because we are both similar when it comes to music and energy and humble.

I would probably be boxing.
Exposed Vocals: What should fans look forward to in the next year or so?
High energy music with authentic stories from my real life that others can relate too. Also great beats and engineering for other artists. Definitely some shows and performances throughout the country and being a big influence on people likewise. Most importantly changing my daughter’s life.
