Juicy Peach: When did you fall in love with music?
Matt: As a child.. My mom listened to a lot of music going to sleep so I’ve been having love for music since I was very very little.
Juicy Peach: At what point did you decide to become an artist?
Matt: My senior year of high school. It was more of like a joke cause when I started we were doing a video in my media class and we were like we should do music for it. And I had a friend who did music so I was like cool I’ll hop on it and do music. So I was like I minus well try it!
Juicy Peach: What level of support do you receive from your fans, friends, and family?
Matt: Yeah the support I have is crazy..especially after this last mixtape and seeing the support and love behind it is amazing. I have more than the average rapper would have cause to most people “No Angel” is my first mixtape and I’ve gotten over 100 likes almost 200 likes on facebook through datpiff.com and over 1,000 views on and a bunch of mixtapes on a bunch of different websites I have it placed on. So the support is amazing.
Juicy Peach: I heard a clip of the breakup song on your mix-tape, are you a Wale fan?
Matt: Yeah! When I heard that Wale track I was like this is dope then I found the instrumental and was like I have to do something to this. That More About Nothing is probably on my top 5 mixtapes.
Juicy Peach: What artist do you relate to the most?
Matt: It used to be Kanye West back in the college dropout days but now he’s rich now so I really can’t relate to that so now it will be people like Lupe, he’s still rapping about more general stuff for as realistic stuff I can relate to. Also I could relate to Wale before the MMG signing so yeah people like that. Nobody who is too major right now.
Juicy Peach: Who was your inspiration for track number 12 “When It All Comes Down”?
Matt: That seems to be everyone’s favorite track because I think that was one of my first tracks that I actually pulled emotions into it and it was an ex because she actually asked me to write her a song and I kinda like blew her off like ha ha you think im gone write you a song. But then I was like ok I’ll write you a song. I wrote the first verse then I stopped and she was like are you going to finish it and I was like maybe. Then I heard my friends mixtape and he wrote a song about an ex , he wrote a full song and he was like I wrote this song in tears and I was like if he can sit here and write a song going in tears and finish it then shouldn’t nothing stop me from finishing this song so I sat down to finish the song. I actually sent it to her and she heard it on her facebook and called me in tears talking bout how she enjoyed it and everything. Yeah so the relationship with her was crazy so that was a lot of inspiration.
Juicy Peach: What advice would you give to men who have a good woman by their side but continue to take her for granted?
Matt: I say if you take it for granted you deserve to lose it. Because I’ve done that before and I’ve taken it for granted. No person who’s not treasuring what they have don’t need it. Everything I’m bless with I treasure cause at any time I can loose it. I could step in the studio one day and couldn’t rhyme then im done rapping. I could step behind photoshop and couldn’t make a picture then I’m done with graphics. I’m blessed everyday to be able to do what I’m doing. If you don’t treasure it you don’t deserve it.
Juicy Peach: What do you want your fans to know about you?
Matt: This is my fourth mixtape a lot of people don’t know but on my second one I said I was gone stop rapping because I’m going to college and the only reason while I’m still rapping now is because I want to show people better. I’m tired of listening to music on the radio and hearing the trash that’s getting played so I’m like I have to show people that there’s more to the rap game than what the radio, MTV, and BET offers. There’s a lot more to what’s perceived as rap. I’m not doing it to become famous I’m just doing it to speak my views of how it could be done from a different stand point.
Juicy Peach: Tell me about your graphic designer work?
Matt: I started my graphics company Team Incredible a year ago July 10. It started off real low key but by August or September of last year I starting doing stuff for a lot of bigger people. I’ve done stuff for Louis Reed, Young Dro, Nelly, TI, and Down Low for Travis Porter. I’m also doing work for artists who’ve done stuff for Tapemasters Inc. and some more people. I’m blessed I thank god everyday that I can get behind photoshop and come up with fresh ideas cause the graphic game is always changing.
Juicy Peach: What are your future music goals?
Matt:Right now my dj has me working relenctless and after “No Angel” people are asking when’s the next one coming so my future goals is to drop more mixtapes and maybe get a little more recognition but maybe not. If I blow up then yayyy but if I don’t its nothing major. I’m after my degree right now. But my major goal right now is to step my lyrics up right now cause that was the one thing that people said they didn’t like about “No Angel” they told me I was good but there’s a lot of potential there so I’m gone step up my lyrics and try more things with the music. After doing the club tracks I did on “No Angel” I can see that I can do a little more so I want to test the things I can do.
Juicy Peach: Explain your entire affiliate group.
Matt: Music-Ems-group my friend started Engineer Money Sqad then I started No Sirens because people were asking are ya’ll EMS like the medical transport center. It means our music kills and you hear no sirens. Team Inc, graphics company and I just recently started entertainment company called Limitless Entertainment to bring parties to Rolla, Missiouri.
