Who will perform at the Global Citizen Festival, appear in Rolling Stone, and take home $50,000?
Who or what is your musical inspiration?
Ray Charles was my first musical inspiration—singing “Hit the Road Jack” on the jukebox as a kid sparked my love for music. Now, artists like Julia Michaels, GaTa, and Miley Cyrus influence me with their honesty, energy, and unique styles.
How would performing at the Global Citizen Festival impact your career?
Performing at Global Citizen Festival would be a turning point—not just for my career, but for my purpose. It’s more than a stage; it’s a platform to use my voice for something bigger than myself. Sharing my music in a space that fights for change would deepen my impact, connect me with a global audience, and remind me why I started: to inspire, to move, and to make a difference through every lyric.
What would you do with $50,000?
$50,000 would be transformative. It would fund professional recording, marketing, and distribution, helping me build a strong foundation for my label and artist career. It would allow me to invest in quality visuals, strategic promotion, and collaborations that amplify my sound and message. This isn’t just funding, it’s fuel to turn vision into momentum and independence into a movement.
