My mom is American, so I was raised in her household in my formative years. But as I got older, my pops tried to keep me involved with the culture by telling me the stories of the conflict between Ethiopia and Eritrea, how he came to America, and about our family back home, because all that side of my family, my aunties, grandparents, is in Africa.

Money is a tool â€“ itâ€™s the means, not the end. [Inspiration is] the metric that dictates whether or not a project is a success. Itâ€™s more realistic than trying to aim for radio play, or trying to satisfy an AR, or the other gatekeepers on these platforms. I donâ€™t even know how to create with those things in mind. But if you tell me the goal is to inspire? That makes my job a lot easier.
