DIZZYDIDDY+PLUS: Tell us about one event that had a big impact on you.

When my I lost my brother to gun violence . Before then I didn’t know how it felt to lose somebody you truly loved so much.  My brother was my best friend, the only one that I wanted to be like that was my age in arms reach. He could sing better than me, dance better than me and had a better charm than me. Theres not a day that goes by that I don’t think about my brother and how they took him from me and how they  robbed him of  his life. We were only 16 when it happened.

DIZZYDIDDY+PLUS: What is the Funniest thing that happened to you in 2022?

The funniest that happened was when the water got cut off because of the pipes in my apartment building froze over. I had to buy 50 gallons of water to wash up with and eat with. I couldn’t do nothing but laugh at the situation man cause it was so crazy to me because  it happened during the holidays when you need it most. I had no water on Christmas and no water going into the new years haha. Thankfully they did get it fixed though!

DIZZYDIDDY+PLUS: What is your number one goal for 2023?

My number one goal this year is to get my career to the next level. Do a lot of things that I didn’t do last year. Become stronger in the areas that I was weak in. Also travel and network more this time around.

DIZZYDIDDY+PLUS: What is your biggest regret in life?

My biggest regret was that I didn’t save all my money and that I helped a lot of people in life that didn’t deserve it. They just used me. I came into this industry with no experience and I got scammed left and right and with me being a people pleaser that didn’t help at all. Also me getting arrested and going to jail, I wish I never got in the streets and broke the law ever. Even though it’s been since 2009 and I was just a teen I still had bs charges in my background from the police. I wish I knew the law better because I would have never took those charges or deals knowing what I know now. I was just trying to get out of jail so I took whatever they offered me and plead guilty to anything they wanted even if it’s not what I got arrested for.

DIZZYDIDDY+PLUS: Do you have a favorite quote? What is it?

You can’t change the natures of an individual to individual must want to change him or her self.

DIZZYDIDDY+PLUS: What is your favorite book?

My favorite book is the Bible because it speaks to me in ways nobody else can. Every time I read that book it makes me feel like it knows everything that I’m going through. And it’s so scary because this book was written before my life and beyond it.

DIZZYDIDDY+PLUS: Describe your perfect vacation

My perfect vacation would be going to Jamaican with the people I love the most.

DIZZYDIDDY+PLUS: What do you think is your worst quality?

My worse quality is that I care so much about what people think and how they treat me. Also I’m a very impatient person. I don’t believe in wasting time. I would love to work on those two things because they really do effect me the most.

DIZZYDIDDY+PLUS: If you had to throw a surprise party for someone, what would you plan for them?

I wouldn’t throw a party for someone without knowing them and know what their interest are. What they like, what makes them happy and who their friends and family are. What type of music do they listen to,  are they shy or if they even like people at all lol You can easily disappoint someone by not knowing these things.

DIZZYDIDDY+PLUS: What type of music do you love the most? Why?

Coming from a artist myself I’d say I love all music as long as it’s a great song.

If the song can move me then I’ll add it to my playlist for sho for sho.

DIZZYDIDDY+PLUS: Tell me your worst joke.

Ummm I don’t have one lol why did the chicken cross the road maybe? Lol idk I got nothing.

DIZZYDIDDY+PLUS: Do you have any favorite pairs of shoes? If yes, explain!

I love Jordan’s and Air Force ones and designer shoes. Why because I’m a flashy guy, I came up from nothing, we were really poor growing up so I like to dress and look like I have it all to remind me of the times I didn’t.

DIZZYDIDDY+PLUS: What is your opinion on the kind of current music that the artists are releasing?

I feel like no one cares anymore. These artist don’t make music for the people, I  feel like they make music for themselves. We live in the look at me era now. I miss the good old days when music was medicine and it really moved people and brought  people together. I miss when everyone knew what song was out and everyone liked that same song because there wasn’t a million different artists out and the market wasn’t over saturated.

DIZZYDIDDY+PLUS: Who is your ideal fictional character?

The black panther not because he’s a superhero but because he made history.

DIZZYDIDDY+PLUS: What type of music do you love the most?

I stated I love all music but if I were to only have one genre it would be Jamaican music and love songs (rnb)

DIZZYDIDDY+PLUS: If you could live anywhere in the world, where would it be and why?

 That’s tough  because I would live some where theres no violence and no bad hurricanes,  tornadoes and earthquake so idk the answer to that one yet. Maybe a island, maybe Jamaica.

DIZZYDIDDY+PLUS: What is your philosophy in life?

There are no failures — just results to learn from. …Be bold and have big dreams

DIZZYDIDDY+PLUS: Prince or Michael Jackson? Why?

I’d choose Michael Jackson because I was more his era then Prince. And I know more of his story and his music. I think Michael was the greatest artist to have walked this world.

DIZZYDIDDY+PLUS: Pop or Hip-Hop?

Honestly I can’t choose one over the other because I need a balance but in my life based on how I’m feeling and what situations I’m in. But if I were to only have one, I’d pick pop all day because it has more melody and that speaks to my soul more then somebody just shouting rhymes to me.

DIZZYDIDDY+PLUS: Afro-Beat or Hip-Hop?

Afro beats all day because I’m Jamaican and our music has a lot of similarities.

DIZZYDIDDY+PLUS: What is your favorite song of 2022?

My favorite song was Burna Boy – “Last Last”

DIZZYDIDDY+PLUS: New York or L.A.? Why?

I’ve been to New York but I’ve never been to L.A. Closest I’ve been to LA was when i went to Arizona. I had a blast both places but I haven’t  been there long enough to pick one over there other just yet.

DIZZYDIDDY+PLUS: Money or Love? Why?

That’s easy I’d pick love every time, all day everyday. Why? Because love is something money can’t buy. But you can get some money if you show somebody love💯

I didn’t receive any gifts in 2022 so none lol

I would thank my girl for always being there for me  and I would thank  my mom and god for giving me life.

DIZZYDIDDY+PLUS: What is your biggest dream?

My biggest dream is becoming the best artist in the world and making the world a better place.

DIZZYDIDDY+PLUS: What is your new year’s resolution?

To not make the same mistakes I did last year, to work harder, to learn more about the industry. To not drink and party so much. Above all just stay healthy.
