Each and every day they’re growing and striving towards their goals, and have no intention of stopping, so buckle up because you're in for one hell of a ride.

What is music to you? What does it give you?

Music is life. It gives us the freedom to live our lives the way the great God almighty intended lmfao

What is your music dream?

To put the whole hood on 4PF status

If you could change the world - what would you start with?

Dismantling class systems and oppressive regimes

Which is the most memorable song from your childhood?

Billie Jean

Who are your favorite musical artists or bands?

Every rap collective ever + Kendrick Lamar, J. Cole, Drake, XXXTentacion, Juice Wrld, Mac Miller, Eminem, Logic: basically anyone who has a decent career in hip-hop ngl, we listen to everyone

What inspires you to make music?

hardship.

What is the message you want to send with your music?

"No matter what happens, f*ck em we ball. It's Only Up From Here"

How do you feel when you perform in front of an audience?

Chaotically. Lmfao we're a big ol collective. Think Odd Future meets Members Only with a little bit more choreography mixed in. That's how we'd be in front of an audience.

How do you see the musicians’ reality nowadays? What could be improved?

Honestly speaking, we're entering a new age. The days of the big 3 are coming to an end. The internet has revolutionized the industry. Life as a digital musician is literally whatever you wanna make of it, and so therefore the only thing that I'd say needs improving is really nothing lmfao.

What do you think of Drooble?

Seems pretty cool thus far. Can't wait to see what the future has in store.

What frustrates you most as a musician?

our own procrastination

Do you support your local scene as a fan? How?

To an extent. We harbor good relationships with artists around us, but a lot of them just don't treat this profession with the level of seriousness that's required, and it shows in their quality of work so it's hard to maintain support for them but that's just how it goes.

What qualities should a musician nowadays have in order to get their music heard by a larger audience?

In today's game if you don't understand the importance of marketing, self-promotion. and complete and total apathy towards everything that isn't moving you forward as an artist and as a person, you've already lost. No audience for you chief.

Share some awesome artists that we’ve never heard of.

Kai Cartier, Symmere, Jarcitty, De4th Di4ry, Tony Vaez, Mountain Mxn, UP Pace, Yu$e, Jay Auroa, $olito
