Describe your musical journey in three sentences.
My musical journey has been a roller coaster. I started off as a solo artist, then I became part of a six member group called the Union. After that didn’t work, I went solo again and been rocking that way ever since.
Share an interesting experience you had while creating your latest track.
So for my Latest track “Elite Barz Remix” I reached out to RJ Payne to see if I could get a feature, never thinking that it would happen because he’s such a big name artist. But he hit me back within minutes & 48 hours later, I had an incredible verse from the man himself. I was like wow!!! lol
What message do you want to convey through your music?
The message that I convey is to do you.. Whatever that is. Don’t let people dictate to you how you should move in this world. Don’t let people tell you that you’re too old or too young to do something. Live your life the way you see fit.
Tell us about a challenge you faced during production and how you overcame it.
Well for this track, I needed my engineer to extend the beat for RJ Payne to add his verse to the song but I couldn’t get in touch with him. Luckily I had the Instrumental on my external hard drive and I sent to another Engineer to extend the beat for me. I’m just glad I keep all my studio sessions on my hard drive.
If you could collaborate with any artist, who would it be and why?
I would say J. Cole. That guy is super Lyrical and I know performing on a song with him would bring out the best in me.
Where do you see your music taking you in the next year?
I see my music taking me on tour overseas. That has always been my goal, to tour the world with my music.
What’s the next big step for you as an artist?
The next big step for me is to consistently get better at my craft. There’s always room to grow so I’m striving to better than I was yesterday.
Where can we hear/watch your most recent work?
I”m on all DSPs under Lyrics. There’s more artist named Lyrics then I knew of when I started releasing music, so if you’re ever confused type in Judy’s Boy and that’ll bring up my entire catalog.
