The artist revealed that much of the Ep was written while he was traveling, performing across different continents, and soaking in new cultures. The beats carry influences from Afro-fusion to trap soul, while the lyrics dive deep into themes of ambition, love, heartbreak, and self-discovery. “I wanted every song to feel like a chapter of a story,” he said. “By the time you reach the end, you’ll feel like you’ve walked through my mind.”

I want people to listen and feel like I just put words to something they’ve been feeling too.”
