Never to be classified by one specific type of music, my music is rooted in many things. It encompasses nerdcore because of my love for animation and video games, comic books and everything within our culture. It encompasses soul music, world, classical and the golden age of jazz music because of my influences abroad. “ Being from Brooklyn I have a strong foundation and connection to hip hop and music in its many forms. I feel like the creativity of music is limitless, and without bounds I hope to explore all the possibilities throughout my musical journey. I make music from the heart and I have always been attracted to music that makes me feel the passion and love for life and freedom of expression through music. “ - EyeQ
