We caught up with Kxng Nu to talk about his music. At Indiy we champion musicians.

Let's get to it...

What do you enjoy most about being an independent musician?

The freedom of expressing my emotions to the ones who care to know, who can relate, and who I hopefully influence.

If we were to peek over your shoulder, what does your studio look like? What gear do you typically use?

I engineer my own music.

I bought pro tools and essentially had to teach myself to navigate through the software.

Do you enjoy recording and production, or do you like performing live and promotion?

I love it all...from beginning to end!

The process is what makes it authentic and genuine.

How would you want people to describe your latest project in a tweet?

I would want people to say that I did not hold back.

That I gave them a window to peek into my life.

Do you plan your music releases, or do you just finish a song and release it?

Depending on how far I imagine the project going determines the release process.

What can we expect from you within the next 6 months? Any releases planned? Future gigs?

Currently I’m working on a project titled, 'Bottom of the Glass'.

Expect to see talent from my hometown...Real effort!

Are you planning any videos for your music? Are there any videos we need to know about!?

Videos are currently being scripted and should be released in the next 6 months as well!

Are there any collaborations, past or future, that you are excited about?

Producers for sure!

Beat Demons have some very original sounds.

I'm really excited to show the world how we collaborate!

What inspires your creative process?

Real life experience...The drama! The success! The setback!

It all deserves a mention...It’s what makes me, me!

What are your top five favorite albums of all time and why those albums?

The Notorious B.I.G. - Life After Death
Big Sean - Finally Famous
And Lil Wayne - Tha Carter II'.

They tell the story of every artist's struggle to express their passions...

When you finally make it, your problems are still there! But it’s up to you how you handle it!

Who makes up your existing creative team?
i.e. photographers, video directors, social media managers, paid media specialists, stylists, hair, and makeup…Name someone who you think deserves a special shout-out?

Russell Statam, my photographer and video director.

Marcy P, my social media manager.

Sarah...the lock doc...my stylist!

And biggest shout out of all... KayKay! She made me see my music through the eyes of the listeners.

Where can we find you on social media?
