It's a "Ya Boi"

Obscurity, my ambient hip-hop concept album will be releasing Friday 🍄 Art by

Thank you to my sister Essi for listening to the album and creating this wonderful art for the album cover 🐐

As I prepare for the birth of my son I am also wrapping up projects to take them off my mind so I can focus on my family. I have worked on this album for over a year among my many other efforts.

This album is only 25 minutes long created with live performances in mind. I do plan to perform this in the coming year. I was able to perform once for some of you back in October. I am eager to continue to share this story with Seattle as my lifestyle allows.

For those of you still reading the post, this album is a very vulnerable experience for me and I am setting it free so that the emotions I put there, no longer encumber me. It was an exercise in reflecting and releasing, and I am doing ever better because of it. I am excited you'll have the opportunity to get to know me better through this work. Thank you ❤️

Reflecting on 2025 and I'm beyond proud of everything this year has been. I've been able to expand my skill set and be a part of so many great prices of art. I've begun recording and producing for others as well as building a personal project that was very emotional for me. That project will release sometime in 2026 💽

To all the artists I've met and friends I've made I am so grateful to be a part of your lives and to contribute when I can. 🙏

I figured I needed at least one release before the year ended just to remind everyone and myself that I'm still active in my journey!
