Sound-wise Risk I’ve Really Risked A lot Including Family Time To Pursue Music and Time Is Something We Can Never Get Back 

Favorite Overall Song Autobiography it tells my back story that no one really knows.


What is your goal as an artist?

Goal as an artist is to break out the shadows of other artist of Staten Island and give substance to the game I feel the violence drugs ect. That the streets provide is only due to the music they follow. 


When did you know you wanted to make music?

Music came to me around the age of 12 I always wanted to dance the beats of songs used to make me feel alive inside but at a party in Harlem I messed up my leg and then trouble at home started to brew and I felt I had no one to vent or talk to so I picked up a pen & pad and wrote down some feelings then added them to some beats.

What is your dream now that you just accomplished this dream?

To give knowledge and substance to what the youth hears THEY ARE OUT FUTURE! 


Have you ever been Stereotype'd? Tell us more

Have you ever broke a Stereotype someone had of you? Tell us about it

I’ve definitely been stereotyped due to All the tattoos not knowing that I got the tattoos so I wouldn’t hurt other people I inflicted pain upon myself I’ve been called a womanizer because of my unsteady home life I didn’t  know what relationship was and Now that people take/took time to get to know me they see I’ve had/have the most genuine heart and wanna see everyone excel at what they love and their passion consists of! 


Some last words...

#iAm is the two strongest words for whatever you put after them shapes your reality! Be YOU Everyone Else is Taken
