When did you start to get interested in music?
- Ever since I was a kid. I remember watching the MTV channel every time I came back home from school. I saw music videos from Michael Jackson, Eminem, Jay Z, Drake, Kanye, Lil Wayne, Beyoncé, etc. It was awesome. I should have been watching cartoons, but it was music videos for me and less cartoons.

Most artists say that through their art they learn more about themselves, heal injuries… In which aspects has music helped you?

Who are your idols?

If you didn’t like music what would you like to do?
- Because I have always been good at biology. I find it so interesting!
Do you consider that nowadays there are more or less opportunities for new artists? Why?
