I like to consider myself a student of hip hop. There's a certain level of certification and wit and craftsmanship that comes with rapping. As rap progresses - it's a young genre - it's becoming way more mainstream, crossing over to different lanes. I feel like it's losing its essence in a way, because it's getting commercialised. I want to keep it fresh and keep it progressive, but I also want to respect the foundation of what rap is about.
Cakes da killaI was just doing it for fun. I was in college recording music as a joke, so I really didn't think that a career was feasible - being able to travel.
Cakes da killaSometimes I start with the beat. Sometimes I can write something down and it takes me a while to figure out how I want to say it or the beat I want to say it to. I definitely like to live the experiences that I cover.
Cakes da killaI think each track tells a different story about what I'm going through. But overall it's just me being young, my love of alcohol, and my love of turning up.
