What is music to you? What does it give you?

The reason for my sanity. Seriously. There's nothing music can't fix ?

What is your music dream?

To be an award winning, and chart successful artist, songwriter and producer. I want to change the soundscape of mainstream music by making great music 'in' again. If the world had less mumble music, I'll be happy...haha.

If you could change the world - what would you start with?

Hunger. I'd do away with hunger. Every human being deserves the right to food at the very least.

Which is the most memorable song from your childhood?

Wow. This is hard. I think it would be I'm Waiting by Diana Ross. But they are so many to name, I'll come back to this ?

Who are your favorite musical artists or bands?

Michael Jackson, Mariah Carey, Whitney Houston, Diana Ross, Usher, Marvin Gaye, Shalamar...I love the 80's and 90's

What inspires you to make music?

Music just won't let me be! ?My mind is a constant whirlwind of melodies, rhythms and concepts so I just have to create, even if I didn't want to.

What is the message you want to send with your music?

I just want to add colour to people's lives through my music and make sure that my songs are great enough that they form the soundtrack to a lot of people's lives.

How do you feel when you perform in front of an audience?

Exhilaration.

How do you see the musicians’ reality nowadays? What could be improved?

Talented musicians are not considered cool anymore, which is sad. I just think the fans need to demand more from artistes and stop supporting people who aren't talented but look 'cool.'

What do you think of Drooble?

It's a wonderful and much needed platform.

What frustrates you most as a musician?

The mediocrity in urban music. African Americans used to be the best musicians, now they just 'vibe' to a dope track and mumble. The producers, or actually the engineers, are the real superstars.

Do you support your local scene as a fan? How?

Yes I do. I attend their gigs and request their songs on the radio

What qualities should a musician nowadays have in order to get their music heard by a larger audience?

Controversy and social media notoriety, I guess. I wish it was just about the talent though.

Share some awesome artists that we’ve never heard of.
