Interview: Profit Drama

Published on 10 March 2021 at 11:01

1: How did you decide on the name, “Profit Drama"?

I don’t come from much of a musical background, nor am I much of a business-mind. Anyone’s feelings or expression can come off “dramatic” to another. It’s all perspective and I want to push those dramatic boundaries. Art is sacred. I profit off of love and knowing the power of art is helping another. I’m just here to tether God and her art to help people.

2: What inspires you to create?

Realism within fantasy. I am both personal and imaginative. Within fairytales can lie truth, whatever that truth means to you.

3: What advice would you give to someone who wants to be in a creative profession?

Don’t let Social Media or the idea of fame control what success means to you. Do it for yourself first, others second. You can’t tell art what to do, let it tell you what to do. Don’t listen to me, listen to yourself.

4: Do you feel open minded about what you listen to? Do you like going out of your comfort zone?

Absolutely, Kanye West is a much a storyteller now as Bob Dylan was decades ago. Genre is temporary, art is forever.

5: What outlets do you find out about music from? (Record stores, magazines, samplers, etc.)

I like to follow indie driven outlets on social media to hopefully fill my feed with new artists, big or small. If you’re reading this, send me music!!!

6: What was the inspiration for your song “Friend”?

An alligator came into my dreams trying to cut off its own tail, I quickly woke up and wrote it within a few hours as a response to said gator. No alligator here is alone.
