MH: Do you have a fashion icon, and if so, why?

MA: I don't really have a fashion icon, to be honest. If it's
comfortable and looks good, I usually fuck with it. No one
really stands out to me and makes me want to dress like
them or hold them in a higher regard. I love fashion but
clothes are just clothes at the end of the day. But I love
to look put together at the very least. Ha ha!

MH: How do you put words to paper? What’s your
creative process like?

MA: It's 2021, so these days the majority of my writing is
done on a notepad in my iPhone. I do write traditionally
at times, but it's so convenient to just jump in the notepad
real quick. I usually sit down with a blunt or joint and
listen to some instrumentals until something speaks to
me. Throughout my day I'm constantly brainstorming
about future projects/tracks.

MH: If you could perform anywhere in the world,
where would it be and why?

MA: That's a great question! I'm honestly not sure. At this
point I enjoy every stage I have the opportunity to grace.
Definitely looking forward to doing some venues with
large crowds in the near future.

MH: I’ve checked out some of your music videos. I
really like ‘Reflections PT. 2.’ Tell me the backstory
on this song.

MA: So, a producer by the name of Manny Megz and I
had worked previously on a track called ‘Reflections’ and
that led to us furthering our sonic relationship. We
started working on our joint album ‘Prime,’ which
released on Oct 1, 2020. ‘Reflections PT. 2’ is based on
how my life at the current time was looking, feeling, and
playing out. I love being transparent in my music. I want
people to understand I'm more than likely just like them
in some way, shape, or form.
