Sk8way 10thousand Interview with Muzique Magazine

How did you come by your stage name?

I actually didn’t come up with my stage name! My big cousin who also does music came up with it. He told me it fits me besides I’m a skater & I was down with it.

When did you discover your love for your craft and what made you realize you wanted to pursue a career in it?

I was in my 2nd year of college when I figured out music was my true passion & what I really wanted to do and take it more seriously.. The open mic nights and from kids around the campus constantly asking me when the next song was coming out.

To what or whom do you accredit your sense of style?

To be honest that’s quite hard to say. The first artist I’ve even started listening to was Lil Wayne & Chance the Rapper,, some say I remind them of them in certain songs but I don’t really hear it but they did influence me to be original & creative and gave me that confidence to be myself and do music the way I love to.

On your current project, how did you come up with the concept?

My current project is my first album ever recorded .. Dropping soon, Called “Love is a Drug” and I came to that by basically chasing people’s love, I had that bad, it’s like I was seeking it from everyone which is how I came up with that title.

Are you the best at what you do in your opinion?

I just try to be the best that I can be. I compete against myself everyday . I’m my biggest challenge/obstacle!

Is there anyone you’d like to thank, any shout outs?

Yes actually, First is my parents , A great friend of mine “Autumn Gaines” & My big cousin “Mac Love”

How can fans find you?

Fans can find me on all platforms by the name “Sk8way 10thousand”
