I create music for myself first of all because if I'm not happy with the music I create, I can't make anybody else happy.
I love Red Bull, they support everything that I do. They always support music and they're always pushing music.
There's no such thing as 'sissy bounce.' We don't separate it here in New Orleans at all. It's just bounce music. Just because I'm a gay artist, they don't have to put it in a category or label it.
The bigger artists are definitely looking and paying attention to the culture and the style of bounce music.
I'm steady trying to make this bounce stuff mainstream and do some wonderful and great things for the culture of New Orleans.
We have a dance in bounce music called 'exercising' where you just open your legs and shake your butt a little bit from side to side.
Twerking is just limited to a certain, specific dance where it's hand on the knees and you're busting open. With bounce music, we do a whole lot more and everyone is so unique in the way that they move and their personality.
I was young so when I had that job at Burger King, I was still in high school and I just needed to help out my mom. And help myself because I needed to buy some of my clothes. I did that for about three years and I had became a shift manager working at Burger King, doing my thing. I was young and excited to make my own money.
