Q&A WITH EDUBB302

ESSINCE: How did you get started in music?
EDUBB302: I’ve been writing music since I was a kid and just recently started taking it seriously once I realized I had a sound that the people missed.

Who are you influences?
My influencers in music include the likes of Lil Wayne, DMX, Nas, Vintage Mase, 2pac, Jadakiss, and of the newer rappers I like Lil Baby, Yo-Gotti, Lil Durk and many more. I love music with substance.

How would you describe your sound to someone who’s never heard your music before?
I was describe my sound as gritty, authentic and simply music that you can feel even if you never lived a life like my own.

IN CLOSING

What’s the music scene like in Delaware?
In Delaware it’s so much talent. It’s unreal how we go unnoticed but I don’t really blame the industry. I feel if more artist got serious and really chased the dream and we learned to collab and work together without the hate we could be a force in the industry.

What would you like fans to know about you?
I want my fans to know that I really lived the life I speak of. After I spent 5yrs in prison and since my release, the focus has been continuous growth. I try to set an example to the man that is in the shoes I used to wear. Self-preservation is a must. Any issues that can be resolved should be.

What are your ultimate goals?
My ultimate goal is to make it to the main stage and possibly sign a record deal because music is expensive and without the machine behind you it’s costly. I work full time and make good money but I have a family that I sacrifice for day in and day out. Music is my ticket to financial freedom. I’m gonna make it.

Any final thoughts or shout outs?
I gotta drive like no other. When you experience some of the worst life has to offer its easy to appreciate the good. I’m focused, goal oriented, driven and intellectual. Regardless that authentic Hip-Hop sound is back and I’m gonna be one of the forces behind it.

on August 1, 2022 Artist Interviews add comment

WAVYY JONEZ is the next new artist that took the hot seat with @klassikceo for our Straight Official Sit-Downs. Check out their one-on-one down below and check out more interviews right here.

Q: What is your Name? where you’re from and what first got you interested in the entertainment industry?

My name is Wavyy Jonez . I’m From Long Island/ Strong Island New York. My interest in the entertainment industry spun from the first time I saw Erick Sermon “Just Like Music” on 106 and Park. My mom told me he was also from Long Island. I been at it ever since.

Q: Who and/or what inspires you to create?

Life is my greatest inspiration along with my family and nephew that watches everything so when I make them I think of him and can’t stop.

Q: How would you describe your sound?

My sound I won’t allow to be in a box. I’m an entertainer, though I love lyrics and wordplay and have a earlier original Hip-Hop sound but my music will be a small bit of everything. I want to reach people of all taste of music.

THE CREATIVE PROCESS

Q: What is your creative process like?

My creative process starts with how I’m feeling at the moment. When the lyrics get to flowing , I could be anywhere and my mind drifts off into rhyming words. I feel God does it because a lot of times I listen back like “wow I said that.”

Q: What artist(s) would you like to collaborate with?

All walks of life and types of creators big or small. But definitely Jay Z & Lauryn Hill for sure.

Q: What is one message you would give to your supporters?

I’d like to let my supporters know I’m very grateful for all their support. I know it could be tough supporting the music, entrepreneurial and the acting all with the same drive. I won’t stop till my 3 headed horse reigns supreme.

Q: What is the most talent/skill you have that most people don’t know about?

I think I’m still trynna figure that out myself. I surprise me sometimes too.

Music saved my life. if I wasn’t doing music or if I totally cut it out my life, I wouldn’t feel complete.
Wavyy Jonez

Q: Who are some artists/people you admire and why?

I admire artist that dare to be different. The game is a enough of the same thing. We need some really dope stands outs so I admire artist that do this their way. We’re not all gangsta and all the other stereotypes so the stand alone impress me very much.

IN CLOSING

Q: What is the best advice you’ve been given?

Best advice I’ve been given is have tough skin and be free in the game. Don’t stop & don’t give the haters something to keep hating on. They’ll eventually love me (laughs) It has really been helpful along this journey for sure.

Q: If you could change anything about the industry, what would it be?

If I could change anything it would be for artist to feel free. To create and not worry about the numbers so much but have fun with the content they share with the world. We are artist and should feel free to create regardless what the labels are saying.

12.What’s next for you, where would you like to see yourself in the next year? Next for me is more music , tv shows, more on the Kerch side coming soon as well in the next year I’d like to see myself with whatever god has planned for me just know I’m working
