On October 7th 2017 I released my debut album ArtChiTexture (pronounced architecture). Let’s break it down:
Art - The intentional expression or communication of ideas, emotions, or experiences through creative mediums such as visual design, music, dance, literature, performance, style, or any other form that evokes thought, feeling, or aesthetic appreciation.
Chi - Chi is the vital life force or universal energy/mana that flows through all living things. It’s the invisible energy that animates the body, mind, & spirit ✨
Texture - the feel, appearance, or consistency of a surface or substance.
You can’t spell texture without “text”. Text is any written or printed material consisting of words. Text also refers to a book, passage, verse, or written work that’s being studied or analyzed.
ArtChiTexture (definition):
Artistic Energy Constructed Through Words With Feeling.
Since the release of this project 8 years ago, I’ve grown so much as an artist, as a creator, and as a soul navigating this human experience 💫
Swipe through these photos & videos for a glimpse into the essence of ArtChiTexture 📐 The people, the moments, the real-life stories that inspired every verse.
Much love to everyone who contributed to this project, everyone who listened, streamed, downloaded, or copped a physical CD. 🙏🏽 Your support means the world to me 💜
Since then, I’ve had the honor of warming up stages for some of my favorite artists, leading Hip Hop workshops for youth, going on my first tour, releasing more music… & the journey continues 👣
Every part of this album was crafted with intention, heart, raw lyricism, & real-life experiences. The Chi was flowing through every bar ✋🏼✨🤚🏼
If you’re new(er) here or never got the chance to dive in, I invite you to give the album a listen. 🎧 Stream it on your favorite platform or grab it on Bandcamp via the link in bio 🔗
Mahalo nui loa for being part of this chapter 📖
More to come. May the Chi be with you. Chiii!!! 🔥

8 years ago yesterday, I dropped this song called “In My Mind” on SoundCloud… no budget, no label, just bars, vibes, & a dream ☁️🎶💭
It was inspired by @pharrell & his album of the same name — a huge influence on me 🧠💡@timbaland even liked the post back then 🙏🏽 & @_seandream helped bring it to life ✍🏼
This was the very 1st jam I wrote after my album ArtChiTexture (S/O @primaphonix 🎶) Still proud of this record. Still chasing the dream. Still got more In My Mind.
🎧 Listen to the full track on my SoundCloud (linktree in bio or drop a comment/DM & I’ll send it!) Side Note: there’s a whole 2nd verse 👀
Tagging the legends who helped inspire this moment — @pharrell@timbaland@_seandream 🫡 I need y’all to tag them in the comments for me! 👇🏼
