How did you know this is what you wanted to do?

Ever since I started writing At the age of 11 I knew this is what I was made for.  And at this point it’s all I know.

What’s the name of the first track you ever recorded? What was your inspiration behind it?

I’ve been writing and recording for over a decade so I honestly don’t remember the very first song , all I know is I recorded it myself on a Green Dell Laptop.

Who is the first person you ever saw in concert & where?

Bas at the Middle East was my first live concert, but I’ve been studying performance tapes since I was young.

Tell us about your first performance. 

The first performance I remember was opening up for Rockie Fresh in providence back in 2011-2012 , the crowd rocked with me but I remember being disappointed in myself afterwards.  One thing about me is I’m never satisfied with myself, I always believe I can do better and that’s what keeps me pushing. (That and the love for my son)
