What's amazing is that it you listen to "Day 'n' Nite," you get into the beat and then you realize there's a message.
Yeah, people forget. They get so wrapped up in the beat and the hook being really catchy and they forget that there's really a message in those verses.

When you listen to a song, which do you listen for first: the lyrics or the beats?
I analyze everything immediately. As an artist, I care what the artist is saying because that's the point, regardless of the beat. If the beat is dope, cool, but this person is making music to say something.

Are you a day person or a night person?
Both, but I'm more of a night person because I like to chill and relax during the day and then step out and be up all night. I don't sleep much. Sometimes, it's like three hours. I do my thing. I have little naps here and there.

You Say!
