What message do you want to convey through your music?
thru my music I want people to see they can be themselves without having to conform to whatever trends are going around to appease anybody. Ultimately it’s about individuality and not worrying so much about living or doing by anybody else standards. They live their life for them. Live yours for you. The thoughts and feelings you have are entirely unique and God gave you them for a reason. Use them accordingly and you never know you could be the one to break the mold. I don’t think most people do this since we live in such impressionable times.
Tell us about a challenge you faced during production and how you overcame it.
