I'm America's Next Top Hitmaker because I blend church-inspired soul with razor-sharp bars. Vulnerability meets precision.

Who or what is your musical inspiration?
Chance the Rapper showed me independence isn't just viable: it's powerful. His fearless authenticity and business approach proved you don't need a machine behind you to make impactful music. I channel his storytelling depth while carving my own lane. I'm creating a blueprint for artists who refuse to choose between corporate success and creative fulfillment.
How would performing at the Global Citizen Festival impact your career?
While I navigate corporate, my music thrives in the margins of my calendar. What I lack isn't talent or vision—it's visibility. Global Citizen Festival would catapult my dual-identity narrative onto an international stage. This platform would transform me from 'banker who makes music' to 'artist who happens to excel in finance.' It's the inflection point where my passion project becomes my legacy, allowing me to inspire others who balance multiple projects.
What would you do with $50,000?
I'd invest $25,000 strategically—half in high-yield savings, half in market growth. $15,000 would amplify my artistry through professional branding, targeted marketing, and tour development. The remaining $10,000 goes to my family, my day-one believers. This approach reflects my essence: analytical enough to build wealth, passionate enough to invest in art, and grounded enough to remember who believed in me first.
