Who I Am & The Vision Behind This Project
I’m an artist, producer, and storyteller, and this EP represents a major turning point in my career. Until now, I’ve worked independently, handling everything from production and visuals to marketing. But now, I’m stepping into a new era—one of collaboration, deeper expression, and pushing creative boundaries.
This project is about identity, cultural displacement, vulnerability, and resilience—themes that resonate deeply with me as a mixed Black male who has navigated these challenges first-hand. Through collaboration with talented instrumentalists and vocalists from the regions that have shaped me, this EP will be more than just music; it will be a living representation of my journey and a voice for those who feel unseen.
However, to bring this project to life in the way it deserves, I need your support.
The Journey So Far & The Challenges Ahead
I’ve spent the past three years applying for grants, only to be told that my applications were strong but ultimately unsuccessful. Despite over 500K combined streams, financial barriers still make it incredibly difficult for independent artists like myself to create at a high level.
This is why I’m turning to YOU—my community, my supporters, my fellow creatives. This project isn’t just about me; it’s about proving that we can make things happen together.
There will be challenges—securing all collaborators, hitting funding milestones, ensuring production quality—but every step forward will be a testament to what’s possible when we believe in ourselves and each other.
This isn’t just a fundraiser—it’s a journey that you’ll be part of.
Why This EP Matters & What Makes It Unique
This EP is more than just a collection of songs. It’s about breaking through barriers—personal, financial, and creative. It embodies the ethos of SPR (Succeed in Pushing Reality)—proving that with vision and community support, artists from underserved backgrounds can create meaningful work without limitations.
Unlike my past projects, this EP will feature collaborations with incredible artists including JayaHadADream, PRIDO, NEONE The Wonderer, Prince The Kid, OneDa, Rumbi Tauro, and Koj, alongside instrumentalists like Emanuel J Burton, and more. These artists each bring their own cultural and musical influences, making this a truly immersive and diverse body of work.
