The new single, “Beat up the Beat,” highlights your one-of-a-kind style and self-assured demeanor. Could you provide further insights into how you perceive your distinctive persona and the various elements that contribute to it?

It’s a lifestyle! I just go with the vibe and give you what I’m feeling at the time. It really all depends on the environment and energy.

The lyrics of “Beat up the Beat” showcase your talent for igniting the untamed and daring spirit within every woman. Could you delve into the inspiration behind this theme and its connection to your personal experiences?

With girls, you have to get ‘fly’ and you have to get money. Everything else falls into place after that. Girls like to be taken care of which costs money.

“Beat up the Beat” will soon be accompanied by a music video, directed by WSHH. Could you elaborate on the concept behind the visuals and how it amplifies the message and energy conveyed by the song?

The video for “Beat up the Beat” is interesting. We shot it in Miami with a fake police car and really amplified the hook where I state that we don’t stop for police. Should be coming out in the next couple weeks.

Iconic hip hop figures like Eminem and 50 Cent have served as sources of inspiration for your music. How do you manage to incorporate these influences while preserving your unique sound and artistic identity?

Eminem and 50 Cent played big roles in my childhood and inspired me as a youngin to become who I am today. If it wasn’t for greats to look up to like that, I wouldn’t be motivated like the way I am today.

The presence of luxury and power dynamics in relationships is evident in “Beat up the Beat.” How do these elements contribute to the overarching theme and message of the song? Are they reflective of your personal aspirations, or do they possess a symbolic significance?

Luxury is a plus; it helps amplify the experience and the art itself especially when you’re not used to living in such a manner. It definitely gets the adrenaline rushing and just amplifies the whole experience.

How do you balance your confident and assertive image in your music with the responsibility of promoting positivity and uplifting younger generations? 

I just do my best, nobody’s perfect, but as long as you stick to it and uplift others around you I believe good things will come your way.

Could you provide a sneak peek into your upcoming releases and how they further develop the foundation set by “Beat up the Beat” in terms of your freestyling skills and rhythmic delivery?

My second single to drop would be “Space.” It’s more of a melodic vibey spacey type of song. I like to switch things up. I’ll be experimenting with all types of vibes in the next upcoming months with all different types of beats.
