The First Record I Bought:
The first record I ever bought was Ma$e’s Double Up album. The first time I walked into a record store I couldn’t work out what to get it – was a foreign activity to me – so I decided to look at which covers looked cool. Being a fan of hip hop, that album stood out.
The Last Record I Bought:
Hermicrania by 116th. I haven’t had a chance to listen to it yet but I loved his work on Diafrix’s album Concrete Jungle and loved the concept behind the album.
The First Thing I Recorded:
The first thing I recorded was a song for a girl. At the time we had broken up and I was thinking of ways to get her back so I recorded a song I had written some time back and dedicated it to her.
The Last Thing I Recorded:
This is Afrika, which was the first single from my upcoming EP Through These Eyes. I recorded it with one of my heroes MoMO from Diafrix. I got to play both the bass and guitar on the track and got some amazing features including Ceeko and Sifaniso Bophela.
The Records That Changed My Life:
Continuum by John Mayer for the amazing guitar tones, To Pimp A Butterfly by Kendrick Lamar for the jazz influences, D’angelo’s Black Messiah for the amazing grooves and Lecrae’s Anomaly for the content and energy.
