On His Game
How would you describe your musical style?

My musical style is west coast G-funk rooted. But, I also have an alter side that touches basis with reality and real events or touching on people’s feelings or shit they go through. So, I’m like a Warren G, mixed with TWISTA, and a shot of Baby Bash.
What first got you into Music?
What got me into music was when I would do rap battles with the fellas out in the yard or in the cottage.
What was the name of your first single and how did you come up with it?
My first single was “Lovely Day” ft. Villian & Craig “The H!TMan” Long…. I came up with the concept wanting to give tribute to the great state of California and our lovely entertainment capital of the world, “LA”…There’s nothing like taking a cruise down PCH and all throughout LA on a sunny day. So yeah, that was a tribute to that.
How would you describe the music that you typically create?
I can describe it as funky, catchy, something you can chill to in the backyard or at a bbq, something you can also dance to as well. It it’s about creating music that’s not just about talking out of ur ass, but making it relevant and relatable.
Describe your style of music?
G~Funk, Pop, R&B and classic hip hop.
What is your creative process?
It all depends on what I’m feeling at the moment, or what’s brewing within me when I hear the track. Sometimes I’m inspired by current events, or things that I know have happened to me or someone I know. Or more less an experience!
Who would you most likely do a collaboration with and why?
I want to do a collaboration with King Lil G. Because of the lane he’s on. He’s broken barriers and don’t bite no ones steelo.
If you could do a show with any artist who would it be and why?
I vibe his style and word play. Plus he keeps it. Secondly, DJ Quik, because he’s a great/genius with music.
If you could do a show with any artist who would it be and why?
I would like to do a show with Snoop, Kendrick Lamar and J Cole….. I’m a fan of all three. For J Cole and Kendrick they’re lyrical geniuses and super relevant. Snoop because he’s smooth, he’s a mastermind when it comes to marketing and putting on a show. I’d love to be part of that.
What is the first album you ever owned? How did you acquire it?
DJ Quik the single “Tonight”, my uncle bought it for me at a CD store when those were around lol.
What are three things you look for when you see an artist play live?
If they’re rapping without lyrics, they’re body language and crowd interaction. I think it’s imperative to know the crowd ur performing in front of. At least it’s easier to do on this smaller scale. Once ur a big star I guess u already know they’re their for u. lol
Who is your superhero alter-ego and why?
The Hulk lol…. Cause, I’m a really nice guy and have a sincere personality and heart. What u see is what u get. But, if u piss me off, I’ll f*** some shit up! hahaha
Nah, but if I get upset it’s usually a good reason, but it takes a lot to get me to the hulk point
If we were to buy you a drink, what would it be?
Chivas Regal 18 year and coke, or Hennessy and coke on the rocks (chilled).
What’s a song you have stuck in your head these days?
Late at Night-Roddy Rich
What’s your favorite thing to order from room service?
I’ve never ordered room service tbh. I haven’t made it there yet.
Where do you find your artistic inspiration?
My inspiration comes from the great Pac and Nipsey. Two of the realest.
Who’s your fashion icon and why?
I love Guess and adidas. Adidas cause they’re classic and have always been embraced by the hip hop icons….otherwise for clothes I’m a pretty simple dude. 501s and a white Tee are good for me haha California vibes
Give us an insider tip on what bands or artists are about to break in your opinion?
I really haven’t been listening to too much music lately tbh. I e been grinding and working on my EP. I haven’t had much time to really put my ear on others , but I have heard a dude by the name of Lil. Tjay…. I think he’s pretty dope. He sounds like the rest of these guys with that auto tune but o we all I like his word play and beats are pretty sick.
