Why this name?
"Refinement and delicacy of performance, execution, or artisanship." Now thats the definition of not only Finesse, but ME!. Thats why my name is Finesse
Do you play live?
100 Karat Entertainment will be touring soon, shows from boston to flordia. Ive had many special moments, but a big one is just doing a show and having people know your whole song. I think thats crazy, but i love the support. "I became something from nothing." -From the untitled song "the name says it all" From the album that will be released Nov.22nd "The Name Says it All"
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
It gives young unheard talent a chance to let people hear them, but it also allows people to download musicians music FOR FREE. Which i highly discourage, now that i have spent hard earned money, sweat, blood, and tears making an album, and being some one who has download albums (etc.) Ive gained respect for artist, and if i want an album ill buy it.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Currently i am signed to a Independent lable, 100 Karat Entertainment. I will be starting my own sub-lable Full Effect, but ive had some calls from some major lables, so i dont know yet it going to take some thought. I mean who wouldnt sign a six-figure contract? but than agian from the song reason to excell i say,"If you start off at the top you only have the choice to fall, but starting in this game is the hardest choice of it all"
Band History:
I Started to write music when i was 9, I went from poetry to rap. Somedays i just wrote how i felt and than after about 2 years of just writing to write, i devoloped a talent to freestyle which i do daily, now i write usally a song a day so i guess the saying practice makes you perfect is a little correct. "Any idiot can hold a pen, only real men can let it lose and express from within" Also from the album.
Your influences?
Me my biggest musical influence personally would have to be Talib Kweli, and Mos Def. But i not only like rap i like some rock and punk. But good music is hard to come across now-a-days such as Dave Matthews Band. Just good music to make love to is hard to find. But now Hip Hop Influences Theres so many. Lets start with the best of all time Biggie. Than we can move on to Wu-Tang, Immortal Technique, All of the Ruff Ryders including L.O.X, Stat Quo, Stack Bundles, Scarface, The Roots, Redman, Too Short, Pharoahe Monch, ONYX, Non Phixion, Necro, Of course Nas, The old Mobb Deep (survival of the fittest, Quiet Storm) Before G-Unit, 50-Cent enterpunas a hungrey rapper but influenced as a entrepreneur yes ofcourse, HOva Jayz Who isnt, Lauren Hill (always brought a new style to hiphop i call her a thin missy elliot) Dipset ( a new style of rap that the game had never seen before but now every one seems to rap like that?) Game, Jae Millz, And all the starving unsigned hype. We all want to be the biggest and the best its just the fact who gets heard.
Favorite spot?
Me i like to zome out and just look around see whats going on i can do thsi anywhere but mostly its out, like in the middle of no where, if not there im in the city doing my thing seeing and experinceing things in life that i can later write and tell people about.
Equipment used:
I recently just sold my home studio, i work at a couple studi, Two here in My city, One in DC, and The Professional IN NYC.
