100 Percent is a trap song I made for gym playlists, built for anybody going all in on whatever they have decided to finish. Trap drums suit that kind of push. Heavenly Social and Swish Swash sit in the same high-energy rap lane, and Heavenly Social also has an Afrobeat Remix that carries the song onto a different rhythm. I rap because I follow Jesus, and that faith comes first for me. I rap, sing and produce. Rap leads, singing adds melody, and production lets me shape how everything sounds. I took piano lessons and learned FL Studio, so I can build a song from the keys to the finished beat. Lecrae's After the Music Stops helped pull me into Christian rap, and collaboration and production in Christian hip-hop have been a longstanding part of my work. IAMMIKEO and #gKIDS are two of the people I work with on production and collaboration. Gold Soul follows Synonym, so playing them in order shows how my sound moves from one project to the next. Ashes & Wind led to my first sync, on T.I.'s reality show. Faith Over Feelings makes a natural next record after those, and the catalog also wanders into jazz, soulful hip-hop and lofi when the pace slows down. A newer song beside an older one tells a listener more than either does alone, and I like that the catalog works that way. I want a new listener to find one song that connects, and then to have an easy path into the rest of what I have made. I'm a husband and father of two. God changes people, and a song never does that on its own. He can use one anyway, so I make mine and trust him with what happens next.
