Who will perform at the Global Citizen Festival, appear in Rolling Stone, and take home $50,000?
Who or what is your musical inspiration?
My first musical inspiration was my dad. Growing up, I would read his handwritten lyrics scribbled across worn-out composition notebooks, dreaming alongside him. He took me to the studio from time to time and gave me my very first voice lesson right there in our living room. That’s where the spark was lit — before I ever knew the size of the dream, I already knew I was meant to create.
How would performing at the Global Citizen Festival impact your career?
As a pop artist with R&B roots, my music is rooted in energy, light, and empowerment—values that align deeply with the mission of Global Citizen. This platform would amplify my voice not just as a performer, but as a creator who believes in inspiring change through art. Sharing the stage with world-class talent in front of a global audience would accelerate my visibility, unlock new opportunities for touring and collaborations, and give my message a much bigger stage.
What would you do with $50,000?
If awarded the $50,000 grand prize, I would reinvest every dollar into building the next chapter of my career—funding independent music releases, producing high-quality visuals and live performances, and expanding the fan experience through my custom artist app. My goal is to continue bridging pop performance with purpose and make every step of this journey count—not just for me, but for those my music inspires.
