Interview

You were chosen for MPS Management’s best of Mid-TN Hip Hop show…how do you feel?

I feel like who else but me? I’m a recent grad from MTSU. I’ve been holding it down in Nashville and the Boro for a long time now. It’s only right I come rock the stage. Shouts to MPS for the opportunity

Are you originally from this area [Middle Tennessee]?

Yes. I’m from Nashville.

How long have you been making music? What inspires you?

I’ve been making music since I could remember. I’ve been seriously pursuing it since high school. I’m inspired by real life situations that happen to me and telling my amazing story is my life’s goal. I can draw inspiration for anything. An awesome party. A funny movie. A relationship I’ve been in. Music is the soundtrack of our lives.

What are your thoughts on the local urban music scene? Where do you see room for improvement?

I mean Nashville as a whole over the past few years has really had a huge shift as far is hip hop is concerned. WE OUT HERE. I don’t see any room for improvement because those things take time and that time is coming.

How big of a role is the internet playing in promoting and marketing your music online?

The Internet is dope. I talk shit and people listen to it. I use it as a tool to get people interested and involved in what I’m doing. I say funny things, and sometimes I vent my frustrations. I love it. follow me on twitter: @ClassicalxMusic Instagram: ClassicWilliams like me on Facebook: Classic Williams
