Any memory that is well-associated with this song ‘Jump Out’?
I made the song jump out to let the world know how I really felt. In the Beginning of the song It says “I don’t care if you like me because I don’t like you” I really meant that. I feel like theirs levels to this music an a-lot of these artists are just in the way.
You mentioned your uncle John and how he got you to meet various artists, so have you met any upcoming artists who are the leading singers of this time?
Yeah I just did a song with Bone. Gotta say Bone was 100 to. I had my guy damien thompson (M.I.E) put together a beat. Big ups to Rohveah (GK) and his partner kristan for the connection. But yeah I got something in the works for sure. When my new ep drops ( #2combo) hosted with Tokyio himself gonna have the summer going crazy.
