YoVo: I first discovered music at an early early age. My dad would always ride around the city with me in the car bumping old school music and he would always watch my head bounce in synchronization with the beat so ever since then, I’ve always listened to random instrumentals and from that point on i knew i had something special within me.

YoVo: have alot but I would have to say Outkast, Drake, Eminem, 50 cent, lil Wayne, Ice Cube and way more tbh.

YoVo: I fell in love with hip-hop when my dad bought Outkast’s Aquemini album and man did that album just wake up something in me. the way they can take words creatively and tell their stories on how they feel always stuck to me,even till this day.

YoVo: I mean music always evolves and changes as the times go by so i feel as an artist so do i….so no, i am still learning on a daily basis to taylor my craft into inspiration and positive influence.

YoVo: The album will shake up the scene because it comes from the mind,body, and soul. This is not an album i made just for fun, this is am album that when people hear it they can feel exactly how i feel… the beauty of the mind is we have so much different emotions we can tap into and people always like different things in life so why not create an album that can possibly be for everyone?

RESPECT.: What do you bring to the game?
YoVo: I bring heart and passion in the game and the will to keep fighting for what i believe in no matter what others think.

YoVo: I love creating and bouncing ideas with alot of artists that are passionate just like me so I would like to work with everybody but if I had to choose someone it is definitely Drake.
