Who will perform at the Global Citizen Festival, appear in Rolling Stone, and take home $50,000?
Who or what is your musical inspiration?
Kristine W changed my life. I was in college in Pittsburgh, feeling lost, when I heard her music on a trip to Miami. Her voice had soul, power, and purpose—it was Dance music with depth. That moment hit me like lightning. I dropped out of college without telling anyone and followed the call. Her album Land of the Living became my blueprint. Kristine didn’t just inspire me she gave me permission to become. I know that some end up in Dance music, but Dance music was my intention.
How would performing at the Global Citizen Festival impact your career?
As a global touring House Music Artist, I’ve performed on international stages, connecting people through rhythm and energy. With years of experience, passion, and relentless drive, I bring dynamic, high-impact performances to every crowd. I'm ready to bring that same intensity and purpose to the Global Citizen Festival, using music not just to entertain, but to inspire unity and global change.
What would you do with $50,000?
If I had $50,000, I’d donate it to food banks across NYC. This city is full of beauty, but many are struggling just to eat. Food insecurity affects families, elders, and kids every day. I’d split the funds among groups like City Harvest, Food Bank for NYC, and local pantries doing vital work in all five boroughs. It won’t fix everything, but it could provide thousands of meals—and remind people they’re seen, valued, and not alone.
