Why this name?
It's a combination of my first name and my childhood nickname.
Do you play live?
Yes, I belonged to a band called Mercedez. Currently, I formed a band specifically for the SICK WIT THIS tour. I love doing this - it's my passion.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
It makes the artist more accessible to a larger audience before they have a major record deal.
