What makes you a hot artist?

No matter what I am singing about, there is a level of passion and love that shines through my art, and I believe that is what makes me a hot artist. On stage is where I shine the most because that’s where I feel most free. I really admire the art of performing, and that is a large part of me. Not being able to do that through this pandemic has been tough, but I am hopeful for the future. I really love music and what I do, and I feel that my purpose through my art is to free others.
