Let’s be real—at some point, every creative feels like they’re behind.

Everyone else looks like they’re levelling up while you’re still figuring things out.
And in today’s world, it’s way too easy to confuse visibility with real progress.

If you’ve been doubting your pace, your path, or your power—this one’s for you.

Hey,

My next single SOUL will be released on 04/06/25 and would love your support on it!

“SOUL” is the second track from my debut EP Weight Of It All. It captures the moment I chose purpose over pressure—starting GUAP while at university, navigating doubt from family, and betting on myself when it didn’t make sense to anyone else. This isn’t just a song—it’s a chapter. A reflection of what it means to follow your soul when the stakes are high and the world expects you to play it safe.

events by us for you guys.

remember - do you.
