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 inspiration comes from artists who could do it all — sing, play, and command the stage. Levon Helm showed me how drums and vocals could live together. Stevie Wonder, Paul Simon, Teddy Campbell, and Sammy Davis Jr. all brought style, rhythm, and soul. I’m driven by those who lead from behind the kit and still move the crowd. That’s the lane I’m in — full performance, full presence.”
How would performing at the Global Citizen Festival impact your career?
“Performing at Global Citizen Festival would be a game-changer. It puts me on a global platform where soul, purpose, and music meet. It’s not just about exposure — it’s about alignment. I’ve played behind legends, but this would be my moment to stand in front, share my voice, and connect with a worldwide audience that values message-driven music. It would open doors and amplify everything I’ve worked for.”
What would you do with $50,000?
“I’d invest the $50K into building my independent tour and recording live visuals to take my music to the next level. I’d also give back — supporting young musicians with resources I wish I had starting out. This isn’t just about my come-up; it’s about creating a platform that helps others rise too.”
