Kaliii, Flo Milli, and Ppcocaine. Mostly because I love bad bitches and love empowering women.

I would go on tour with Calvin Harris as I listened to all of his songs since I heard his first song We Found Love with Rihanna. He is my idol. I would also love to go on tour with Subtronics since I love Dubstep music and Calvin Harris is more Progressive House.

How would you describe your music to someone who has never heard it before?

Answer:

If artists can make music of past than I can make music that sounds like the future or preparing for the future.

I also try to make my music where the song will get stuck in their head and will have dreams of the song or nightmares of the song if you enjoy that as well.

Will I ever succeed and get noticed

If you could alter the music industry in any way, what would you change and why?

Answer:

Promoting someone's else's song in your social media video with or without permission from the artist or label maker. As I believe if I would pay 100 dollars to promote my video of another artist song and will not be receiving any money back from that 100 dollars I spend, not even a penny back.

I would also say paying an artist tons of money to be on a feature should be against money laundering laws.

Remakes of a song should only be allowed 30 years or more after the original song was distributed.

Answer:

What is your overarching goal as an artist?

Answer:

Being able to have fans to come up to me and ask me for a selfie, autograph, having a good conversation and wanting to hangout with me.

Has being an artist made your life lonely? How do you counteract this?

Answer:

So, I'm an introvert when I'm out in public but an extrovert online. So going up to people is very hard to do because I'm an introvert.
