WHAT WAS LIFE LIKE AS A HUSTLER IN PHILLY?
It was real good when the money was coming in. But like in every ghetto across America it’s a sink or swim world and you cant get caught sleeping. Thats what got me shot ten times and locked up in the Feds for ten years.
LOOKING BACK WAS HUSTLING A BLESSING OR A CURSE?
It was a lesson. There are good and bad days when your in the game. The object is to make it back home at the end of the day.
WHAT GOT YOU INTO FILMS AND MUSIC?
I first started out as a rapper, but after going to prison I started writing urban novels. I have over twenty-five books on Amazon. When I came home from prison I started doing films. I have 15 films on Tubi and Amazon Prime. A few years ago a friend got me to get back into my music , so I decided to put out a album. Now I’m on my third album in two years.
WHAT INSPIRED YOU TO PUT OUT THE NEW ALBUM STILL A HUSTLER?
I’m inspired by the struggle of Urban street life. This album is personal. I had so much to get off my chest and I believe I did this with this latest project.
YOUR A INSPIRATION TO SO MANY ANY ADVICE?
To always walk with your head high and never stop believing in yourself.
