The street beats of the Bronx and late night Harlem scene are where I currently live and perform. From an early age, I followed my dreams to New York, graduating from college with a degree in music production and performance.
I find inspiration all around me: from the gritty streets of concrete jungles to the serene beauty of our natural environment. I make music representative of myself and my generation.
