A-List Global Marketing Introduces QuanF8e

Grind Magazine interviewed QuanF8e (Pronounced “Quan-Foe”) recently about his dedication and urge for mainstream success. Here’s what he had to say:

1. Where are you from? 

Chicago, IL West Side Austin area. K-Town & L-Town.

2. Do you remember the first rhyme you wrote? 

Yeah, I was like 11 or 12 and my homie Cash, Lamarr & Tyrone helped me a lot. They kind of just started me off with “I rocks the crowd”, then I was like “Can’t nobody bring me down down”, and I’ve been goin hard since.

3. Have you heard the theory that some musicians write their best music while they’re depressed or going through a bad time? 

Yeah, I believe that’s true and that’s how I created “suicide”. I actually made a lot of songs that were based off of situations that were going on around me. I’ve had to face death from loved ones and that helped me create and relieved a lot of tension.

4. What’s the best advice you ever received?  

F*ck Everybody, meaning stay true to you, what and who you do it for. Even though you have to change in order to grow, always remember you’re the reason you do what you do.

5. What is the most useless talent you have? 

I can draw but I never do, so what’s the point. When I was a shorty, I use to always draw Dragon Ball Z character’s but only the Sayians I guess. I felt like they mirrored African Americans.
