Tell us a few things about your new song ” Don’t Lie”. What is the main idea behind it?
“Don’t Lie” is loosely based on personal experience and those of friends. Most times, people never say what they mean in relationships and this can cause a lot of problems down the line. My motto is say what you mean and mean what you say. The truth always finds a way to surface so just be honest from the get go.
What is your creative process like?
It usually involves a glass of wine. No, but I usually marinate with the instrumental first to determine what kind of vibe I should go for. From that point, I usually freestyle and evolve from there.
For which lyric you are most proud of?
And I don’t like it when you talking sideways / Saying one thing, back peddling / Switching flipping, twistin’ turning / You know my mama didn’t raise no fool / And I can peep ya true feelings / No hoodoo voodoo when perceiving
Favourite album of the past year?
I have two. 1) Mood Valiant 2) Planet Her.
What would you change in the music industry?
Abolish 360 deals and shady contracts
What was the best film you have watched during the quarantine?
It’s not necessarily a film rather an anime series, but Inuyasha! I watched a few episodes here and there as a kid but never watched it chronologically until now.
What is the most trouble you’ve ever gotten into?
I plead the 5th. Lol, but I really don’t tend to get myself caught up in situations like that. I just keep cool and mind my business.
Thank you!
