I am a producer, songwriter, singer, and rapper. All of my music is written and produced by me. I am also singing my own lyrics.

Band/artist history
Singing/Song Writing: I started when I was a child (maybe around 10), after I heard my father with his brother and best friend (their group was called the Trey Bros) on a song. Poetry was something I wrote when I was very young and it was a gateway into me writing music. I started out writing different lyrics over existing songs. Then, I started writing rap songs with my brother and singing r&b style songs.
Production (finding my sound): I couldn't find anyone who produced so I taught myself to produce my own beats and started writing songs to them. Overtime, I realized that my beats sounded weird to others and I wanted to expand my mind and ventured into pop style music! In fact, for a very long time, I started listening to Justin Bieber music to help me find my pop music lane. While I take pride in my lyricism and my beat production, I am more inspired as a producer, because beat production allows me to embrace my weirdness!

Anything else?
Really, I am just an all out music lover who uses music to escape my troubles and stress and express myself. I use music as a means to articulate my feelings at any given moment in my life! I am an introverted person and music helps me to not be afraid to speak my truth!
My singing alias is in memory of my late "Uncle Stephen". He was one of my biggest fans and he encouraged me to be a singer more than anyone in my earlier years of writing and producing! R.I.P. to him forever! Wish you were here! This one's for you!
