"I came into the music side of things because I was tired of listening to the same sounds, the same lyrics, and the same artists. Two of my biggest inspirations to actually go and add something else into the grand musical mix, were none other than Cardi B and Nicki Minaj.
An odd pairing given that our music is very different. But it wasn't the music itself, it was the message in the lyrics.
For me, my songs are not just songs, but stories; snapshots in time. Each song animating a real situation experienced either by someone I know or by myself. They're not whimsical or a fleeting fad or fashion, but enduring human everyday issues that we all face at some point or another.
Good and bad."
My album, 'Reformed Soul', was the catalyst.
It was during the production of a couple of for-fun cover songs. We — Joe Segreti and I — realized there was this particular soulful and gritty vocal sound that would be better suited to original music.
And so the work began to write three original songs. Those three turned into ten, and 'Reformed Soul' was later released in 2021. It was then re-released by Epictronic/Sony Orchard in 2022.
'Reformed Soul' would go on to receive much attention and accolades, earning a Top 10 spot in The Music God's Top 25 Rock Albums of 2021.
