4. Growing up, how important has music been in your life? Can you recall the moment when you decided that you wanted to be a musician? Was it an easy or difficult choice to make? Music is something that is grown within you, how important it becomes is up to you the individual.
A. I became addicted to music when I was about 8 or nine years of age, my brothers and cousins were my inspiration. Getting in the music business wasn’t a choice or a decision, it was in my DNA.
5. Was there ever a time when you thought about doing something else? If you weren’t a musician today, what could you see yourself doing?
A. Well, actually, I love a lot of different things that exist in life. For example, I went to college on a four-year athletic scholarship, football and track. I played semi pro football for 4 yrs, I learned a couple of different trades, including, electrical, and instrumentation, I’ve also recently acquired my C.D.L license. I love to explore different challenges in life.
6. What has been the biggest surprise so far about making music your career? What has been an unexpected or welcome challenge to it all?

A. Of course that would be Prince (R.I.P.) I learned a lot from him, in the short time I spent at the warehouse. His work ethic was impeccable. The late great master of the vocoder, Mr. Roger Troutman, gave me the confidence I needed to take charge of the stage. I have no preference, I would love to work with anyone that loves music.

11. At the end of the day, what do you hope people take away from your music?
