Who are your main hip-hop influences?

Common got me more into rapping. He was personal and made me not afraid to be me. DMX made me want to start rapping off my energy and passion. But I needed to get off that. Common was calm with it. I’m a calm person and I’m not trying to throw my voice out… I’m just rapping. Anything Primo produced is what I’m looking for. And Nas’ “Illmatic” is the type of album I’d want to make.
