Keep grinding, never give up, believe and invest in your self if you have to. Just never quit, I went through some hard things to get to where I am now.
– If your own words, what is the definition of “underground hip hop”?
I feel like it’s a phrase you would use to define real rap artists that can give you bars back to back, with no hesitation but at the same time they’re not getting that recognition they deserve because they’re not doing what’s main stream right now.

I’m in full album mode, maybe one more EP before the album. I’m not really rushing anything, it’s all gonna come together very soon.
