POSTS STORIES REELS

If you love something you become deeply curious about it. You have to know how it works, what it means. Nothing defines that idea for me quite like music. I always had to understand all the little details: the sharpness of the perfect snare, the texture of a reversed sample, the syllabic rhyming of an elite verse. This curiosity consumed me as a fan of Hip-Hop. I would listen to all of my favorite rappers and go to shows if I had the chance.

I got to be the first in line to meet Logic on his first official tour on May 14, 2013. On that same day, I met the man making the beats behind all of his songs: 6ix. These moments fueled my curiosity, but I had no idea I wanted to do the same things: make raps, cook up beats, and sell out shows.

Nevertheless, the curiosity was stewing in my subconscious. A decade later, my curiosity is even more intense, but a lot has changed. Over the years, I evolved from someone who listened to music into someone who creates his own. I gave myself the freedom to chase the dream relentlessly, and I’m now a full blown artist with my own social media following and a substantial catalogue.

This past December, 6ix and I met for the first time and started building the foundation of what would be a future project. In July, we locked in for three days and made our new album: SONATA. This album is the culmination of my curiosity. It is also confirmation that the thing you love can become the life you live.
