Who will perform at the Global Citizen Festival, appear in Rolling Stone, and take home $50,000?
Who or what is your musical inspiration?
I'm inspired by the soul and honesty of R&B legends like Roger From Zapp, the raw truth of Tupac, and the angelic presence of Aaliyah. My sound blends deep emotion, storytelling, and street wisdom—balancing smooth melodies with hard-hitting reality. Funk grooves like Funkadelic’s “Knee Deep” influence my rhythm, while I stay rooted in the West Coast with the energy of DJ King Assassin. My music is about legacy, passion, and making people feel something real every time
How would performing at the Global Citizen Festival impact your career?
I would love to perform at the Global Citizen Festival because it’s more than just a stage — it’s a movement. As an artist, I believe in using my voice not only to entertain but to inspire change. The festival’s mission to fight poverty, protect the planet, and promote equality aligns with my values and the messages in my music. Performing here would be an opportunity to connect with a global audience, uplift important causes, and be part of something that truly is real.
What would you do with $50,000?
If I won America’s Top Hitmaker and received $50,000, I would invest it directly into my music career. That means upgrading my studio equipment, funding high-quality visuals and promotions, collaborating with top-tier producers, and bringing my creative vision to life on a bigger scale. I’d also set aside a portion to support causes I believe in giving back to the community that inspires me. This wouldn’t just be a win for me and supporters
