What or who inspired you to begin a career in music?<\/strong><\/p>\n

My family are very musical, I was always surrounded by lovers of different types of music, and there was never any family get together, where music wasn’t the protagonist!<\/p>\n

I remember growing up, creating sounds with anything I could! mainly stealing pots and pans from my mum cooking cabinet to make drums. From young myself and my brothers were encouraged to share creativity. Headlined my “front room festival” many times aha! That’s the main inspiration for pursuing a career I music…couldn’t believe when I found out people would actually pay me to make music!<\/p>\n

What differs you and your sound from other artists in the music industry?<\/strong><\/p>\n

This is a tough question, I dont feel like I ever consciously made a decision to try to be different. I feel like it’s hard to answer this without sounding like Kanye West aha. But I suppose one thing that makes me different, is my fluidity between Genres…I’ve loved so many different types of music, and always set out to make music I genuinely love…if I can’t listen to it 100 tines in a row, and not get bored, then the world would never hear!<\/p>\n

For that reason, the sound of my music is consistent, (my voice will always be my voice) but the genre will sway in between R&B, Afro – Pop, even indie music…hence the tag line “R&B’s Indie Kid”<\/p>\n

I dont believe that true art can be put into 1 box…I want to keep people on their toes!<\/p>\n

Your debut single, \u2018So Far Gone\u2019<\/a> is out now. Can you please describe the creative process and inspiration behind the release?<\/strong><\/p>\n

So Far Gone… this song started off as a freestyle, was scrolling through YouTube beats, something came on that just instantly exploded into melody ideas!<\/p>\n

At the time, I was with a girl who I didn’t wanna be with romantically anymore. Couldn’t really see any future, we had different mindsets. We just didn’t fit romantically…I’ve always been terrible at breaking things off, I never know what to say. And so when it came to writing these words, I felt like they really wrote themselves. The situation was so current, that it all came quite quickly!<\/p>\n
