“Ashes” is my lead single off of my new EP “The Numb Project”. Every time I play “Ashes” it instantly takes me back to when, where, and how I was feeling at the very moment I wrote the song. The producer (SirRil) and I put “Ashes” together with a long dramatic intro to transfer the heat of our session to the ears of the people. The overall message isn’t about smoking weed and getting high… It’s one of those songs that takes you away from your reality! It’s one of those songs that makes people remember that yo sometimes life hits, but you can take a L and bounce back!
“Ashes” came about after I graduated from Southeast High School. I left Kansas to go chase my dreams in Orlando Florida where I struggled with the reality of nobody really cares until you already are on! “Ashes” is made from the experiences and challenges I was facing on my journey as a musician. Every dime I had was going towards the production of my music although I was homeless and sacrificed my personal needs. I knew I had to push my music beyond the Orlando music scene although I was being recognized for my work. Just like everyone else who had to make it to a certain level without handouts… I was kicking down doors on my own! For me “Ashes” is my announcement that from here on out i’m going to do my own thing and stop expecting people to help me build my legacy!
My job as an artist is to create music for the culture… I’m not going to make a song telling the world that everyone should smoke weed… But I can make a song that will give you the same effect as if you did smoke and I feel like we accomplished that with this single. I present to you “Ashes”!
