Apollo it’s been a while since we’ve featured you on Nefarious Supply, what’s new with you, how was your 2021?

My 2021 was a bit quiet. I had gone through some things in my personal life, good and bad, which slowed things down. In terms of my career as an artist though I made a ton of key connections and a few valuable additions to my team. Spent the latter half of the year setting things up for 2022. It feels good to be back.

What are some of your goals going into 2022?

My main goals are to stay consistent and to continue growing, both as a person and as an artist. I’m dropping a lot more music and a lot more content this year in order to expand my fanbase, so it’s important for me to stay hungry. More performances, more content, more engagement, etc. I had two choices coming into this year; it’s either all or nothing. I chose all.

Word is you have a new song dropping January 26th tell us more about it including what inspired it, who helped with production, and are you dropping a project soon?

I wrote “Under Pressure” because I felt (and still feel) like there’s a ton of pressure on me, both internal and external. I have a ton of goals and aspirations when it comes to my career. So if I want to attain them, I have to break old habits and wake up. There’s a line in the song that says “To survive I had to change me”. That’s what inspired this release.

In terms of overall sound, the track was heavily inspired by Don Toliver. When I wrote the song, I had Life of a Don on repeat so I searched for Don Toliver type beats on YouTube, stumbled across the beat which is produced by theskybeats and purchased the license for it. Am I dropping a project soon? Maybe.

So tell us about this playlist you put together why did you choose these specific songs, what are some of your favorites, and did any them inspire the your new song dropping soon?

The playlist is an assortment of songs that I’ve been listening to lately. The Don Toliver tracks are the ones that helped inspire “Under Pressure”. The rest of them are just vibes that I play when I’m in the car.

Who should we tap in to host next?

My boy 4TUNAT. He’s truly an immense talent and listens to a lot of different types of music so I feel like his playlist would be crazy.
