Since time is an illusion it’s always time to do both. It’s 24 hrs in a day so I’m not gonna write a song for longer than 3 hours then rehearse it for 3 hours then record it in a hour and the rest of the day is for businesses outside of music!

Sitting with major artists and being blessed with the game that they bestowed upon me.
5. Can you share a behind-the-scenes moment from one of your music videos that fans might not know about?
Yea, in my music video called LIFE OF A MOBSTER the mansion I was walking around in wasn’t a mansion at all… it was actually a CASTLE and listed on the real estate paperwork as a real CASTLE!

My biggest risk was moving to Los Angeles 13 years ago
And it surely paid off and it still paying off!
