Influences and Inspirations My music draws inspiration from the world around me—the people, the experiences, and sometimes, from a higher power. Artists like Mr. Eazi and Burna Boy have also greatly influenced my sound. Their work has shaped my approach to music, and I’m constantly learning from their artistry.
