- What is your artist name, and why did you chosen for this name ?
Michelangelo. I chose this name because i believe in the art of music. Michelangelo is one of the greatest artists of all time. I feel as though i could embody his reincarnation, and influence the world through my music
2. What for an artist are you ?
I am an emcee, focusing a lot on storytelling and dropping insight on things that i observe on the daily.
3. How would you describe your style, and what makes you special ?
I grew up with a perfect split between Outkast playeristic hip hop and soulful Lauryn hill and Erykah Badu. I get very deep in certain songs, but also have more upbeat jazzy songs like Body Language. You guys showed Lullabies, and that song is a fusion of both, you can break down the lyrics but it has an upbeat, dancy feel
4. What is your future dream ?
My dream is to sustain myself and my family, and to put my siblings through college. I never had it terribly rough. I've had ramen noodle stretches but my parents did their best from two different houses. I don't plan or expect to be the greatest, because i know the truth is not always accepted, i just want to not have to worry about money for once in my life.
5. How are you currently promoting your music ?
Soundcloud is where i post my work. Instagram and twitter are my two most effective promotion outlets, but i'm on Youtube and Facebook also. I'm glad to work with you guys because i've received a lot of love from the people who have listened now i just have to widen my audience
6. What is your advice to people who would like to become an artist ?
I won't pretend like i've made it in any aspect, but i have seen persistence and confidence are two major factors. You have to be ready to take risks and above all else you have to be talented. Beyond born talent you have to work on your craft constantly. I've come a long way from when i started recording two years ago, just keep working and quality will be noticed
7. Is there anything else you would like to add ?
Keep your eyes open in 2016, the plan is to have 2 more project come out. And thanks for letting me on your blog, you guys are the first to put me up, so that will forever be a milestone
