How are you?
Good, thank you.
Did you instantly know this was the career for you?
Instantly? No. I've always seen myself doing something ordinary... Although becoming a musician has forever been the goal, I was never sure if I could make it.
What made you want to be a musician?
Watching my idols as a kid and being inspired by them to perform and inspire someone else. Every song has a message that is given through the music, and I think that’s an important thing to have.
Did you ever think you’d become popular?
No - I've always listened to music, but never thought someone would be listening to mine. I guess you just have to believe in your abilities – life is what you make it.
How would you describe your new album?
Hmm... well, it’s different to the majority of music that is around at the moment. It’s a bit old school I guess. I think recent music has lost some of it’s feel - in needs to bring back the meaning of music - which I feel I have done in my latest work. Modern artists seem to sing about anything, whereas I've tried to make sure other people can relate to my lyrics. I’ve loved working on this album, it’s been great.

Where do you get the inspiration for your lyrics?
Life; the choices, the good times and the struggles... Everything around me, and not just my life – the lives of others that I see going on around me. How people interact, their actions and problems that everyone will hit at some point in their lives. I think it’s important to express your feelings and thoughts – whether that be in an artistic way or not.
What is your favourite album you've heard so far?
Probably 2Pac's 'Greatest Hits' album. This is because, as you'd expect, it contains his best songs. The messages he portrayed through these songs are inspiring and they discuss things that are still relevant today.
Do you listen to different artists or genres depending on your mood?
I do. I think different music has the power to change what and how you think about things. For example, if I'm sad or generally down about anything, I will listen to something that will brighten my mood and make me think about better things.
What do you want to accomplish in the next 5 years?
I generally go where the wind takes me, but in the next 5 years I would like to become more well known and show more people what my music is about.
