FIFTHDWN, Gives insight on project "The Hat-Trick Collection"
What can we expect from your new project?
The Hat-trick Collection comprises of 9 remastered tracks, all of which are part of FiFTHDWN's previous three projects respectively; Feng Shui, Sea Breeze & Palm Trees, and Different World. These three projects were written, recorded, and engineered by FiFTHDWN, executing the hat-trick.What are your biggest musical influences?The biggest musical influences for me are God first, my family, and the OGs in Hip-hop like Snoop Dogg, Ice Cube, Nas, Jay Z, 2Pac, Notorious BIG, etc. I also have a love for Jazz music. I enjoy watching documentaries, and listening to Jazz greats like John Coltrane, Miles Davis, Thelonius Monk, among others.What got you started making music?I grew up playing basketball. That was my first love. Music was always just something I was a fan of -- searching for and downloading music from my favorite artists on the internet. Once my dream of playing ball became less likely due to injuries and politics, I made the decision to go ahead and graduate college. I knew that was something very important to my mom.I first started recording back in 2012, while I was in college. It started off as a hobby at first, but I started getting quite a bit of positive feedback from people that had heard my songs on campus. Upon graduating, I began investing in myself and started taking creating (rapping and engineering mostly) much more serious. I dropped my first mixtape called 5th Quarter: Overtime in the Summer of 2015, and followed that up with HiGH HOPES in 2017. I haven't looked back since.
