Q : How long have you been doing music? And what inspired you?

A : First time ever recorded was in 2002 I was 18, but was serious about it until 2021 during the pandemic. During my short educational learning, I was always a 50% average English student. My boys I grew up wit use to always be free styling and writing tracks, and one time I went to the studio with them and tried rapping on the mic and saw how they were doing it and was impressed by how they put the lyrics together and them having the feeling of other people listening to what they had to say, and wanted my voice to be heard. I always listened to music, so it was already apart of my life. But in 2021, being in the house on lockdown during COVID, I jus said Fuk it, I’m going to do it Fr Fr.
