Music has always been my greatest gift. Of artistic expression and freedom. It gives me PEACE
My dream is too share my art with the world
I would start by challenging people. Too first change themselves.
The most memorable song from my childhood. Would be Michael Jackson Thriller.
Im a fan of all music.
My life experiences and my imagination inspires my music
My message is to think outside the box ALWAYS. And never restrict your creativity.
I feel like im being embraced by heaven
Musicians today I feel lack creative control. And in return put out the same sound of music. More artistic freedom is needed.
So far so good. I love it
What frustrates me the most as a musician. Is no one understands you until you become successful at it. Until then your just another artist.
I support my local scene as much as possible. By sharing others content, supporting events and purchasing their music etc
Confidence and consistency are qualities you must have. Drive, determination, accept failure, never giveup, constructive criticism, passion, sacrifice, etc
MYSELF........ KZ
