In the artist’s words:
Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. One of my earliest musical memories was rapping over piano chords while my mom recited poetry in the background. I’d balance a phone on the keys to record, pouring everything I felt into those early tracks—raw, real, and just eleven years old.
What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? 50 Cent, Get Rich or Die Tryin Drake, Take Care Michael Jackson, Thriller My top 3 are Take Care, Get Rich or Die Tryin’, and Thriller. Drake showed me how to wear emotion with pride, 50 made pain sound powerful, and Michael Jackson taught me the magic of melody, performance, and turning a song into a moment.
Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “Old News” Old News with Tshego is special because it marked a real turning point for me. It blends slick R&B with raw emotion, and hearing Tshego bring his magic to my vision made it feel bigger than just a song—it felt like a moment
What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? Working with Grammy-nominated Jeff Jackson and platinum-selling mixing engineer Mark Parfitt on Hillcrest Anthems was a major milestone. We crafted a sonic experience that felt global, polished, and true to who I am as an artist.
Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? I still dream of performing on the Coachella stage and selling out a headline show in my hometown. A collab with artists like Drake or Tems is also on my list—creating something timeless that blends worlds and moves people everywhere.
