I’ve always been into music it officially started when I was in form 1, joined the Scripture Union Choir & was part of a choral group. Fast forward form 2 i started listening to RnB & Hip Hop. I wrote my first bars then but just for fun. https://t.co/oDyBEv3WFz

Form 4 vac after spitting those young bars I was hyped lol. After November exams my friends & I went to record out first track on DJ Khaled’s Fed Up instrumental. At that time I was listening to a looot of Lil Wayne & Chris Brown https://t.co/oDyBEv3WFz

2016/2017 I really loved the Drake & Bryson Tiller sound. I wanted to try out the same type of sound and thanks to @beatsmith_ for working with me on that beat it actually worked. Again at that time Trap Soul was popping & still is https://t.co/kEqLaKbpif

I’d say I’m mainly RnB/Trap Soul. If I have to I’ll rap but because of the way my team is setup I’ll have @H33nryy rap on a beat before I can ? I feel he is better at that. https://t.co/T8Pb2Ut3MC

Ooh that was a big one shoutout to my manager @Spisse2pelepele ? I met him & he was a rapper too & after seeing me perform & listening to my stuff he felt I was destined for greater heights & he wanted to push me towards that. https://t.co/Clw8pqrya3

Aye man my advice is don’t be outchea on social media calling out people, throwing shade etc. Some people make millions off social media & so can you. Put yourself out there! That’s why I’m here, to put myself on because nobody else will. https://t.co/jNvXMstGcX

The name Overdue came from the fact that people would just ask me when Im dropping something & It had been a while since I dropped a project (Last was in 2015). It basically just wraps up moods you feel when you are in love from the infatuation to the painful heartbreaks. https://t.co/edLSRaoBqK

Yea I’m sooo particular about the sound maan. I mastered the whole thang myself & most of the beat production was by @beatsmith_ & myself (Mr Masinh ???) https://t.co/a5PmjC2V3O

The major advantage is people will always be curious as to what you’ll do to a song. There are legal implications yes and you need to fully give credit & the rights reserved to the original owner. https://t.co/78OMrO8El8

Importance of having a Team
A team is people you share the same vision and goals with. People who assign themselves towards their area of expertise & make sure that vision is met. Divide in your area of expertise & conquer https://t.co/BA4ilOKUeT
