In the artist’s words:
Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. I remember as a kid the only thing my whole family had in common was their love for music. My dad listened to hard rock, my brother listened to rap and techno, and my mom listened to classical. So I kinda picked up little flavors of everything.
What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Daft Punk, Musique, Vol. 1 (1993-2005) Rage Against the Machine, The Battle of Los Angeles Skrillex, Bangarang - EP oof... only 3 albums?? Welp I'm a 90s kid so Musique, Vol. 1 is the sound of my childhood. The pure political rage and anarchy of The Battle of Los Angeles is always my mood. And Bangarang EP blew my mind for what was possible with electronic music!
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. “Chainsaw Man” I LOVE ANIME. Chainsaw Man is an amazing comic and show, and with this song I felt like I really captured both that vibe and a dark side of myself I don't share outside of music. (I rapped, produced, played the guitar, everything by myself!)
What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? Someone DMd me on IG saying my music helped them through a dark time, and that really felt incredible. We talk sometimes now. Reaching someone's life like that, to connect with my art - it reminds me why I do this, it keeps me going.
Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? Hell yee! I wanna collab with so many amazing artists who inspire me (Haarper, Kordhell, Sadfriendd, Sinizter, MC Orsen, PLAYAMANE, 509 $icario, etc) tour the world and feed my family from my music. Oh and a viral song would be dope too lol
