Interview: Willie Waze (Early Certainty 1.7)


From the cover design by Nick Danny Fulcher to the actual music on Early Certainty 1.7, Willie Waze continues his talented and musically entertaining journey with this solid video game influenced Hip-Hop release. When I first heard of the Virginia native, it was off his previous mixtape Early Certainty he dropped last year. This new mixtape is pretty much a great appetizer to hold you off until he releases version 2. It's like he started right where he left off on this new 13 track venture giving his listeners an insight into part of his life and delivers his messages throughout the mixtape with morally inspiring flows that not many unsigned artists folks choose to spit. I dig an emcee that can aspire to be successful while maintaining both feet on the ground. He just lets the music speak for itself with honesty and creativity as he does on Early Certainty 1.7. I reached out to Willie Waze and posed a few questions about his project to get an inside feel into his outlook about it. Peep it and don't forget to grab the mixtape!!!

@KirbyLauryen's A Song A Day: Day 143



I think Kirby's hairstyle dictates the mood of her music. I'm convinced. I think the straightened hair has something to do with the heartfelt and deep ballads of the last few days. Anyway, she wrote a song for you today. Help her share it with the world. Chea!
