When I named my new album Reasons Unknown, I wanted the title alone to provoke thought. Sometimes, you don’t have all the answers. You don’t know why things happen or where the next step will take you. But you keep moving forward anyway. That feeling of uncertainty, mixed with ambition and the drive to create, is what this album is about for me.



Building “Reasons Unknown” From the Ground Up


This album is another chapter in my journey as an artist and producer. I’ve always been drawn to a dark melodic street-trap sound, and with Reasons Unknown, I wanted to push that further. The production drives the vibe, but I also wanted to balance the gritty with the melodic and energetic. Some tracks get personal, others hit hard with that street edge.


The album has 14 tracks, mixing some songs I’ve already put out with new material. That way, longtime fans get familiar moments, but there’s also a wider look at where my sound is now.


Songs That Set the Stage


Before the album drops on September 18, 2026, I released tracks like “OBSERVE” and “FLASH”. These songs are part of the story leading into the full project. They give a taste of the energy and mood I’m working with, but Reasons Unknown is about the whole experience, not just singles.



What You Can Expect From the Sound


The sound on Reasons Unknown is dark and melodic but also raw and street-aware. I focus on production that sets a mood and supports the lyrics without overpowering them. Some tracks hit hard with heavy beats and gritty energy. Others bring in more melody and emotion, showing different sides of who I am as an artist.


This balance is important to me. It’s not just about making bangers or just making personal songs. It’s about mixing those elements in a way that feels natural to me.



Why “Reasons Unknown” Matters


The title reflects the idea that life and creativity don’t always come with clear answers. Sometimes you’re pushing forward without knowing exactly why or where it will lead. That’s the energy I wanted to capture with this album.


For me, Reasons Unknown is about embracing that uncertainty and using it as fuel. It’s about staying focused on the music and the grind, even when the reasons aren’t clear. That’s a feeling I think a lot of people can relate to.
