"Various producers in the industry have influenced me from Quincy Jones, 9th Wonder, Kanye West, Pharrell, Timabland. Right now I just want to make my mark in the industry as someone with an original sound. I would describe my style as a blend of old school R&B and 90's R&B mixed with new age sounds and aggressive chords."
