Interview:
The belief is within yourself first before music can touch you. Music is a way to let it all out while maintaining a healthy balanced lifestyle. Music lets you reach emotional feelings when you need it, and it’s a way that can touch you whenever you feel happy or sad. Music releases my fear, my energy, and my emotions on stage. This helps me turn into my inner self with equal satisfaction if I was making love to a woman. Music spiritually has helped become a medicine for me and to people who have lost someone who is not with us in this life anymore. You can even be very ill and music can heal most of the pain as I was when I listened to Bob Marley for the first time. Music is pure, beautiful, and healthy for the soul.
“Music is pure, beautiful, and healthy for the soul.”
