Upcoming 100: What inspired you to start making music, and what drove you to pursue it as a career?
WoozyWhiteboy: Most of my inspiration comes from 90s hip hop and the artists who we're part of that era such as Nas, Tupac, Biggie, DMX, Wu Tang Clan, Outkast, Geto Boys, Eminem. The list goes on... When I started makin music it was only for fun. I Never would have thought in a million years i would be at the level i'm at right now. Alot of people used to downplay my dreams by telling me to give up and i cant do it or i wont make it in music. That just gave me drive and hunger to want it even more.
