 1. What's your stage name(s).

🔊I go by identification aka ID. 2. How long have you been doing music?

🔊Well tbh I’ve been WRITING songs since I was like 13 but I started recording music just this past year so 2017-18 is pretty much when I took everything serious. 3. What inspired you to start making music?

🔊Really I was inspired by my pops. Seeing him ever since I was little juss singin around the house and seeing how happy the music made him made me get into all types of music and seeing how much work you need to put into the little things made me realize I wanted to get into the game.  4. Who do you look up to in the music industry? Why?

Mannnn that is such a hard question to be honesttt, I look up to so many people in like different ways you know? Whether they used to rap or they rap now I can’t jus pick one man I see it as I looked up to different people all through my life. I love the old school vibes and the word play that come along w it but I can’t hold back on listening to these new rappers and the new waves that everybody gettin on to. Sometimes I wanna sit and feel the music and other times I’m tryna turn up and see some BACKS break. 5. Where are you from? What was it like growing up there?

🔊Soo before I moved down here to Florida I first stayed in Lawton, OK. And from what I remember all I can say is that I loved it. Living down there it was a small city you saw familiar faces all the time and everything was mad close to you. I remember being able to walk to school, to my cousins house, to my friends crib there in the neighborhood and back to my house all in one day like it was nothin. It was never bad and my parents never let me see any struggles as I was growing up. Shoooot now that I’m older is when they lettin me know how hard things would get at times. But I thank them everyday cuz it makes me who I am now. 6. What is your ultimate goal making music?

🔊My ultimate goal making music would be to make people feel all types of ways w it. like you can listen to one of my songs and itll make you feel a certain way. Not too deep but some way. You can feel like you wanna get up and turn up type, be calm, idk all sorts of stuff I really wanna get to people and have em feel it. 7. What do you think of the music scene today and what could you contribute to it?

🔊I think that it’s nice and I really like what some people be putting out and I like to see that they really jus havin fun w the music and whether certain people like it or not it’s wavy. I mean I really like the old school stuff I always will cuz it’s hard, but this new stuff comes in all types of ways at me, I like it and I feel like I’m learning from maad people and trying to make my own authentic sound and have people remember that name ID and know I’m jus havin fun. 8.
