THA Insiderz Perspective on I Like Too Party

My name is 702Thrillz. I am a Hip Hop Artist and songwriter. I enjoy writing song lyrics and performing them over original creative compositions.   

During my travels overseas, mixing and mingling with different cultures motivated me to write this song. One thing that we all have in common in the world is the joy of partying.

I grew up a Motown baby. So the oldies were goodies in my section. 

It’s hard to say when, but I have been an artist since my mom handed me a blank notebook and told me to write down my thoughts. I think I was seven or eight years old at the time.  

I am a Hip Hop Artist and songwriter at heart, but that doesn’t mean I can’t rock out to other genres. When you’re a lover of music, you learn to appreciate it all. I'd like to think that my music plays into the fans who appreciate a time in hip hop where you can understand the lyrics.

There is something to be said about thinking the world will end. I started to question myself as an artist. More importantly, I started to ask myself what I will leave behind on this earth as an artist. I started to adopt a now-or-never mentality. So the time to release my music for the world to enjoy is now. 

I like to take my audience on a journey. I love telling a story and creating music that the working man can relate to. 

There are so many artists that l like from all genres past and present, I wouldn’t even know where to begin in selecting an artist to tour with because there are so many.

I am a huge Johnny Cash and Amy Whitehouse fan; both have left this earth.

I would love to be in the studio with Smokey Robinson to co-write a song.

But the idea of sharing a stage with Ice Cube would be a dream made into reality.

Music for me is a feeling that one gets from listening. I for one would have a difficult time describing music to someone. So, I would end up playing a song and allowing the song to do the talking for me.

I would first describe my musical concepts to them first.

I would be blessed to see Marvin Gay peform live. 

I wrote this song called Country Girl. It’s a song that mixes the old with the new. I wrote the song as a tribute to those who came before musically.

This was also a tribute to the soul-train dancers who forever revolutionized our country through dance. My mother was a soul train dancer. So as a tribute to her and her friends, I wrote the song.

It’s a tribute to the country girls of all races around the world past and present. Country Girl is a love story while at the sametime its something eles to everyone. We as American black people, all trace our roots to the South. This was me paying homage to those country girls and the fellas that would chase them.

In all honestly, there would be too many to choose from. I couldn’t just choose three.

But for the sake of answering, in no particular order, 2 Pac, Snoop Dog, and Ice Cube. 

My dream performance would be with a live orchestra band.

I would love to collaborate with the Phantogram. I grew up listing to Limp Bizkit, but to many to pick from. I always found Rock stars cool.

When I was losing the rent money in the casino, I discovered the band Phantogram, song fall in love.

I want them to feel the lyrics to my music.

Unique, original, and dynamic.

I love when people discover my music while journeying through the YouTube rabbit hole.

I rehearse for live performances daily. I used to read from my rhyme book to rehearse, now with technology being advanced, I have all musical notes available on my phone.

I allowed a co-worker to listen to a few of my songs. He asked me what the hell I was doing here. He asked me why I was working for people and not doing music professionally.

It’s easy to measure success by streams and numbers. I measure success by meeting the needs of my audience by entreating them. As long as one person tells me that my music impacted them, then I have won as an artist.

I am a Hip Hop fan before I am a music artist. I plan on enjoying my craft and the craft of others first before trying to be a game changer.

Life is a movie, and as artist, we get to direct the movie.

One of the greatest sources of inspiration recently for me would be the story of Nipsy Hustle. The Song Grinding my whole life really does it for me. That song speaks to me in more ways than one.

When you write a song, and the song you write starts happening to you in real life, is flat out scary.

When my kids started singing my lyrics loudly in front of there grandmother.

The game is the game. I wouldn’t change a thang.

I am all about delivering an excellent product for my customers. When you’re in the guest service business, you think about the needs of your guest. In music, I often think about the needs of my fans. Making sure that they are entertained, is my goal.

Being a music artist has not made me lonely.

I think outlooks on life vary in life perspectives.

Not sure. I do love art however. 

I get loads of people that say that I sound like too short when I rap.

Not sure how to answer this question. 

The most significant lesson I learned as an artist is to make sure you have a team.

Yes. My goal is to entertain the world.

Yes. My goal is to leave the Hip Hop genre better than I found it.
