Who has influenced you and your style of rap?

The streets are who has influenced me the most. Music today has no depth the streets and all my real niggas around the world is who influenced me and my style now real nigga music has a face and a voice.

Who did you work with on this cd?

I worked with all exclusive and up and coming producers and artist on this project. Producers were D-Swag from Just Released Ent., and “TeeBee on the track bitch” from

Crank Boy Ent., whom both I know you will be hearing about sooner than later. Artist were the fine and sexy Ms. Meme and my lil nigga X-Dizzle who has help me burn the streets up with my hit single Holla Back. T-Ray CEO and Crankboy’s finest, Gooch the Mayor CEO of Just Released Ent., Miss Money aka the hardest lady and Cuzzo the next hottest male R&B artist to blaze up the Carolinas.

Is there anyone that you would like to work with?

Yo Gotti, Bun B and Bootsie are some mainstream artist that if the opportunity presented itself I would like to work with. I feel like they present the credibility and their music speaks and represents who they are, just as me.

What would you tell people coming behind you? What advice would you give them?

Through themselves dreams can be made possible, never give up on your craft cause hard work and consistency is what’s respected, but drive and determination is what’s needed.

Has it been a hard road?

I can say it has been cause as a independent artist without a major deal I am still seeking my place in the industry, my road never stops being hard until I’m a household name and my story and my struggle is what I profit from.

What type of barriers have you had to conquer?

I think my biggest barrier and conquest I overcame is 10 years of being incarcerated, being able to come out and establish myself in society. And after 2 years of being in the streets, I started and funded my own record label, sponsored my own project, not only focusing on the music part but looking more into the business aspect of it. And going to college to obtain a Baccalaureate degree in Business Administration.

What is your motivation to keep going when it gets hard?

My biggest motivation is all the haters and critics that I have encountered as I strive to make it in the music industry. North Carolina hasn’t gotten that buzz yet that we deserve and I feel like it’s coming so I work hard and continue to stay patient cause I know like every state that has, we are going to get our time to shine.

Any shout outs?

I just wanna say Black Rebel is the movement Just Released is the family, and Crankboy is the army. To all my niggas incarcerated fed and state I’m the voice for all my real niggas. To all that had input and ideas for my album, and everybody that purchased my

Album. To all my DJs that’s playing my shit in the club, and to WUFO Internet Radio and The SHOWCASE Magazine for introducing the world to a real nigga.
