Human heart. AI engine. Real bars. Future bangers. I’m what happens when hustle meets next-gen hitmaking.

Who will perform at the Global Citizen Festival, appear in Rolling Stone, and take home $50,000?
Who or what is your musical inspiration?
Detroit raised me—basements, bars, and survival. Cali showed me scale, weed, and the power of brand. I’m fueled by fatherhood, legal battles, and building a future my kids can feel proud of. Eminem, 2Pac, Chainsmokers, Lane 8 all shaped me—but so did loss, love, and AI. My sound is truth, evolution, and never giving up.
How would performing at the Global Citizen Festival impact your career?
It would amplify the mission. I make music that fuses truth, chaos, and hope—meant to wake people up and bring them together. Performing at Global Citizen would elevate my message, unlock collabs with global creators, and help turn art into action.
What would you do with $50,000?
Build a mobile studio to bring music access to kids and communities who need it most. I’d fund grassroots talent, release collaborative albums, and push boundary-breaking art—uniting Detroit, NY, and CA through a sound that heals and inspires.
