Draft questions for DPS

When and why did you start playing?
I starting playing when she was 16 because she had to learn how to play guitar in school and became passionate about it. I had role model that I looked up to and wanted to be like them. Another reason for me getting into the music was to impress some girls. (Laughs)

Who are your favourite musicians? Groups? CD's?
My favourite musicians/rappers are drake, Eminem, Kanye west because their lyrics are really meaningful and I can relate to them they help me through really bad times of my life. People also tell me a lot that me and Kanye west have similar personalities as we are both quite arrogant but personally I believe I am not arrogant I am confident people tend to confuse the two. I have the confidence in my abilities which makes me certain that I will be one of the greatest musicians to ever leave and hopefully one day to be like… No I mean even surpass my idols.

Is your family musical?
My older brother is in a band and my parents work in the music industry too. I grew up in a very musical family which motivated me to follow a path in that industry. My family is full of a bunch of music loving lunatic but I still love them because they’ve always supported me. It’s mainly because of them I made it this far plus my charm and lovable personality of course.

Which famous musicians have you learned from?
I have learned from a variety of musician but I’ve taken most of my inspiration for 2Pac because he was a really iconic rapper and a good person too plus his success inspired me. I plan on being… wait let me rephrase that I am going to be one day as famous and as successful as 2pac he was a legend in the music industry and I adore him to bits. People call me the king of hip-hop but I plan on becoming the God of hip-hop.

Describe your first instrument
My first instrument was (thinks…) oh it was a guitar which was gifted to me by my parents and they knew about my passion for music in school even though it was compulsory for me to learn it at school I still enjoyed it. Although at the beginning I hated playing guitar as I found it difficult now thanks to all my hard work and effort I can play it blindfolded with my feet (laughs).

What are your fondest musical memories? In your house? In your neighbourhood or town? Urm… (Laughs) this is going to sound a bit weird but when I was younger my friends and I used to learn lyric and have rap battles (laughs) but that’s part of the reason as to why I am so good at rapping and being put on the spot.

How do you handle mistakes during a performance?
I usually just pretend it didn’t happened I usually just improvise and joke about it with my audience. If I make a mistake I would most likely ridicule myself as it always a positive thing to be able to look at yourself and have the confidence.

What advice would you give to beginners who are nervous about performing?
I would advise to think mainly about how it would feel like at the end of the performance also to think of your nerves as motivation as it shows that you are passionate and dedicated to please your fans.
