What initially inspired you to pursue a career in music?

Music was always a big part of my childhood, and it’s been the thing I love most since I can remember.

Can you share a memorable moment from your musical journey that has had a significant impact on you?

My first live performance will always be a treasured memory, and further strengthened my belief of wanting to spend my life doing music and performing.

What influences have shaped your style of music?

I grew up listening to primarily rap and rnb. From the likes of Lil Wayne, 50 cent, and Usher to now Drake, Bryson Tiller, and PartyNextDoor.

If you could create a soundtrack for any historical event, which one would it be and why?

The moment humans first discovered space because I enjoy making cinematic, grand music.

If you could teleport to any concert in history, which one would you attend and why?

Any one of Drake or J.Cole’s early performances, just to see the humble beginnings of the now greats.

If you could collaborate with any artist, living or deceased, who would it be and why?

J.Cole, since I love his music and he seems to be an introspective person, but the list of artists is long.

What's the most memorable feedback or reaction you've received from a fan?

Many reactions are memorable for different reasons, however, hearing that your music was able to aid someone through a tough period is always one that still catches me a bit by surprise.

How did your collaboration with Plunge Audio begin?

I was in the market for new IEM’s and coincidentally, a few days later I had a collaboration opportunity from Plunge Audio in my email. I had read good things about the IEM’s, and was pleasantly surprised when I tried them on.

What specific features do you look for when choosing IEMs for your performances?

Something that fits very snug, and has clear sound quality. Proper noise cancellation is important as well.

What advice would you give to other musicians who are considering using IEMs for the first time?

My advice would be to find a pair that resembles the sound you look for in a mix of a song. That’ll make you feel more comfortable on stage.
