Everybody has a story to tell & he intends to tell it himself through the art of song.. Although he insures there is no fictional story told in any of his lyrics.. He admits that his dreams of becoming a pillar in the music industry have been hindered by life lifting..
Which many can relate to such as incarceration, substance abuse, suffering from depression & an identity struggle of sorts from years of trauma during his childhood. In his teenage years, Unkle Play got entangled in the street life, ultimately leading him down a dangerous path.
