What does your rap name mean & where did you get it from?
My rap name without the g at the end Massiah represents a leader or savior of a particular group or cause.
The way I got my rapper alias was by using my last name Massiah, once I realized how powerful the name was.
Where do you see yourself 5 years from now?

How is the music scene in your city?
It’s like being a crab in a bucket that everyone is trying to escape out of. There’s no unity just competition & envy, I plan to be the change of that not too many individuals is putting on for Southside Queens.
