Who or what is your musical inspiration?
My musical inspiration comes from artists who use their voice to tell real stories—like Tupac, J. Cole, and Kendrick Lamar. They showed me that rap can be powerful, poetic, and a tool for change. Pop punk groups such as Blink 182, Sum 41, and other bands have also inspired me to expand my musical taste and go hard. I’m inspired by life around me—struggles, wins, and everything in between.
How would performing at the Global Citizen Festival impact your career?
Performing at Global Citizen Festival would amplify my voice on a world stage. As a rapper, it's a chance to blend music with meaning, reach new fans globally, and stand for change. Sharing that space with major artists boosts my visibility, credibility, and opens doors for future collaborations.
What would you do with $50,000?
I’d invest the $50,000 into my music—studio time, production, visuals, and touring—to take my sound to the next level. I’d also use it to build my brand, reach new audiences, and create impactful content that represents my voice and community.
