Wicked J 303 Rhythm & Beats
When did you first get into music? Who or What inspired you to pursue a career in music? It’s been around my whole like pretty much since I was a kid. I’ve always loved music so I decided to get into it at an early age. In middle school I was taking drum lessons and I was in band, and other musical groups playing instruments all the way up to college. In general, all of my instructors inspired me to pursue a career in music. Someone else who inspired me is the rap artist Tech N9ne. When I first started listening to his music I was really touched by his style of music. Unlike playing instruments rapping is fun but it’s also different because you’re using words to spread a message, and Tech N9ne showed me that through his music and seeing him live and I knew it was something I wanted to do.
How have your skills evolved since you first got into music? I’ve learned a lot about music, because my taste has grown so much. I learned about music theory in college, I learned new techniques through my music instructors which to this day help me express myself musically and lyrically freely than before. If you were forced to choose only one, which emotion, more than any other drives you to stay in this tough business? Is it joy, anger,desire, passion or pride and why? I would say passion. The reason is because if I was pursuing a career I had no passion for, I would not give it my hunnid percent. I think that if you have a dream that you’re truly passionate about, it doesn’t matter how tough it is to become successful. Nothing will be able to stop you.
