I'm born and raised in Stockholm, Sweden with heritage from Sweden and Ghana.</SPAN></P> <P><SPAN style="font-weight: 400;">I love to travel and see new places, meet new people and of course music. Music is a big part of my life.</SPAN></P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P><STRONG>How big of a role does Music play in your life?</STRONG></P> <P><SPAN style="font-weight: 400;">I used to work as a dancer for many years and have been touring a lot from when I was 17 - 23 years old. I also worked as a sales manager at an event and commercial firm in Stockholm, Sweden for a couple of years.</SPAN></P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P><STRONG>illuSionCrew</STRONG> ft.&nbsp;<STRONG>Binta BlackoutCrew</STRONG> at <STRONG>Chris Martin</STRONG> show</P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P><SPAN style="font-weight: 400;"><div class="video-embed-center video-embed"><iframe class="embedly-embed" src="https://cdn.embedly.com/widgets/media.html?src=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fembed%2F1UaA4dFpVeQ%3Ffeature%3Doembed&amp;display_name=YouTube&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3D1UaA4dFpVeQ&amp;image=https%3A%2F%2Fi.ytimg.com%2Fvi%2F1UaA4dFpVeQ%2Fhqdefault.jpg&amp;type=text%2Fhtml&amp;schema=youtube" width="200" height="112" scrolling="no" title="illuSionCrew feat Binta BlackoutCrew at Chris Martin show" frameborder="0" allow="autoplay; fullscreen; encrypted-media; picture-in-picture;" allowfullscreen="true"></iframe></div></SPAN></P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P>Opening up for <STRONG>NAS&nbsp;</STRONG>on his Sweden Summer Tour</P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P><div class="video-embed-center video-embed"><iframe class="embedly-embed" src="https://cdn.embedly.com/widgets/media.html?src=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fembed%2FjoUJJNMW6tA%3Ffeature%3Doembed&amp;display_name=YouTube&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DjoUJJNMW6tA&amp;image=https%3A%2F%2Fi.ytimg.com%2Fvi%2FjoUJJNMW6tA%2Fhqdefault.jpg&amp;type=text%2Fhtml&amp;schema=youtube" width="200" height="113" scrolling="no" title="Opening up for NAS" frameborder="0" allow="autoplay; fullscreen; encrypted-media; picture-in-picture;" allowfullscreen="true"></iframe></div></P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P><STRONG>Music shapes and changes the way we live and who we are. Which is the one song or Album that’s had the most influence for you?</STRONG></P> <P><SPAN style="font-weight: 400;">The album that has the most influence in my life is most definitely Aaliyah - One in a million and Aaliyah - Aaliyah. Those albums are from 1996 and 2001 and they're still as good as they were back then.</SPAN></P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P><SPAN style="font-weight: 400;"><A href="spotify:playlist:0uwzLy4kKQNNslevTQdsUH" target="_self">Aaliyah - One in a Million</A>&nbsp;<A href="spotify:album:4qSpg5crCuc4IK6Fh6saWd" target="_self">Aaliyah - Aaliyah</A>&nbsp;</SPAN></P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P><SPAN style="font-weight: 400;">It's hard to say one specific song that has the most influence in my life since I have so many songs that've been helping me through good and bad times.</SPAN></P> <P><SPAN style="font-weight: 400;">The thing that really makes me smile is people dancing. And especially if they don't have rhythm. It just creates some sort of joy in me </SPAN><span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="Alex_0-1606655774952.png" style="width: 400px;"><img src="https://community.spotify.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/123378i1161C29573262B5E/image-size/medium?v=v2&amp;px=400" role="button" title="Alex_0-1606655774952.png" alt="Alex_0-1606655774952.png" /></span></P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P><STRONG>If you had the chance to talk to one famous person dead or alive who would it be, and what would you ask?</STRONG></P> <P><SPAN style="font-weight: 400;">If I could talk to one famous person that's no longer with us I would probably speak to Nelson Mandela and talk to him about his life and gather as much knowledge as possible.</SPAN></P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P><STRONG>And finally the ultimate questions - Coffee or Tea?</STRONG></P> <P><SPAN style="font-weight: 400;">If have to choose between coffee or tea I have to say tea. Green tea is definitely a favorite.</SPAN></P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P><FONT size="3"><STRONG>Thanks for the introduction Jeremy!
