My dad's been one of those dads who loves showing newspaper articles to the neighbors.

Something that distinguishes my solo work from normal rap production is that it has a lot of melody - it's not just cutting up a song and having someone rap over it.

The goal of the work is always for it to come across as original material, as transformative material.

My start came with experimental musicians and live bands. I never played with DJ's because it wasn't really the correct fit. It fit in more with someone using a laptop to create their own electronic music. When you're doing music like that, it's hard to get more than 20 people to come to your show.

I'm interested in branching out and seeing where my music goes.

Sharing information, art, music, and everything on the internet now has become a part of everyone's lives.

When there's something negative in my life, be it in the art or the music world or in my personal life, I really just want to face it as immediately as possible. I don't run from it. I just want to immerse myself in it, get through it as quickly as possible, understand it, and look into what is positive about it.
