In the artist’s words:
Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. Bronski Beat with Smalltown Boy, was a song that really had a lot of impact on me. Such a great song with deeper meanings and real struggles.
What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Billie Eilish, WHEN WE ALL FALL ASLEEP, WHERE DO WE GO? Sia, 1000 Forms of Fear Simon & Garfunkel, Bridge Over Troubled Water Simon & Garfunkel - Bridge Over Troubled Water, such a great classic album, with beautiful music combined with great meaningful lyrics. I love Billie and Sia, both great singers and poets. The deeper dark music and lyrics really hit me hard always.
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. “No Human Label” This song represents who I am and the mission of FOKK__it to stop labeling people. We're all human beings in the end. So let's start looking at each other as people and not as a bunch of labels. Let's learn from each other and start love to grow.
What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? I just started my career as a songwriter. But a song from my new album it'S CHRiStMAS called LEt'S SAY GRACE (coming out 27th of September) is used in a commercial for awareness of the use of floral foam, also known as toxic plastic.
Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? Yes, I would love to do a set/show on Pinkpop! Would be awesome to see the crowd going wild on my music. To experience that energy would be out of this world, I imagine. So hope the listeners could help me out here.
