a Selfie with Nick Prosper
1. How & when did you first get into making music?
Around when I was 15-16 I started playing guitar, and practicing how to scream, I was intrigued with hardcore bands and how crazy their shows were, so I started a band with a bunch of friends, it was lit! We had a good run, but then once I started producing on the side, I knew Iâd become a solo artist!
2. How did you link up with Boy Floss & why do you think you guys work so well together?
boy floss used to be a fan of my band and nick prosper music back when I first started, one of my friends was in a band with him and told me about his studio, so I pulled up there with him! When he made the beat for âoff the henny freestyleâ I knew weâd have a good relationship! We pretty much mold one anotherâs sound, definitely my favorite producer and one of my best friends now!
3. Where did you grow up & how would you describe your upbringing?
I grew up in Brooklyn NY, and lived on Staten Island most of my life! My upbringing was up and down, used to get in trouble a lot, and drive my fam crazy but everything is chill now!
4. Who are your three favorite rappers of all time and why?
I have so many but off the top of my head probably Big L, 50 cent and camâron! Big ls punchlines and dark lyrics used to blow my mind as a kid! 50 was dissing everybody and really brought that street shit mainstream! Cams flows were monumental, Â and the fashion him and the rest of dipset brought out really changed everything!
5. Where do you see yourself in 10 years and why?
I see myself still makin music, traveling the world, and hopefully well off
6. Anything else youâd like to add?
