Hometown: Seattle, WA
Born in Portland, OR but moved to Seattle a couple weeks after I was born. Wrote my first rap at 9 years old while listening to a Dipset album in my Grandma’s house. I just dropped my 3rd project “Leftlanin’ My Lifestyle” which is available now on all digital outlets, hard copies on da way as we speak!!
Finish this sentence: “When people hear me, they’re probably going to think of: T.I, Nipsey Hussle, Noreaga.
What sparked your inspiration for a music career?
While living in California (bay area) I was involved in a after school music program ran by Joe Tasby from San Francisco. I was brought to professional studios daily at a early age, and began getting a bunch of positive feedback from my peers in middle school. Which led me to believe that making music was the right career to pursue.
What crew do you roll with?
DOB ENT / AYE DOE INC
Who are your go to producers?
Ray Shinez, Dameondaslap, and a few others.
What other special talents can you throw down?
I’m big on fashion, getting ready to drop this clothing line, create movies, and anything else a entrepreneur can do
What separates you from the rest?
How I exercise my confidence on every beat, also the subjects I’m speakin on. As well as how diverse, direct, and unique my sound is.

What help me get into music?
Being put on punishment having nothing to do but listen to music. When I was little I would always write raps, had a book full of raps and I still have it. Music was apart of my childhood early.
What is one thing you would tell your fans ?
Love God first always, I would say is whatever you wanna do in life grind for it. Lock yourself into whatever your hustle is and make it happen. Don’t lose faith during the grind, many people struggle and can’t come back from that. Keep believing real rap. Your life could change in one year j cole said it best.
