Do you know how there are a lot of
small artists with good music but their
artistic and graphic work does not
represent the essence of their music?
Well, I consider myself the perfect person to solve this problem. Im very passionate about
music, but I also have a big passion for graphic arts and
fi
lmmaking. Throughout the years
I’ve meet very talented people in of those
fi
elds and I always look to connect them with
talented small music artists to help their vision a reality. Last year I meet a very talented
rapper named artist known as Dakzze and I introduced him to a very talented graphic
designer because I noticed that the artworks in his works wasn’t very good. As a result the
song they worked on together became his most listened song that year.
