Exclusive Interview with Hip Hop/R&B artist Sean Hampton

So Sean, being from Brooklyn, I know there's a beautiful and rough side to living in the inner city. Could you tell us little about your upbringing?

I was raised in the 90’s and early 2000’s. I was in foster care before 1yrs old and later adopted at the age 9. My mom was a single mother who moved around alot from place to place pretty much just living off foster checks and disability because of she was unable to work . I had to go outside and hustle to get nice things like Jordan's and Rocawear. I always had to work hard for everything I wanted in life.

If you had to paint a picture of your style of music, how would it look?

If i had to paint a picture of my style of my music it would look like Leonardo Da Vinci’s “Mona Lisa” because my style is so well balanced. Its almost flawless. Detailed lyrics you could compare to the details in the Mona Lisa, variety of flows comparable to diverse features also of the Mona Lisa.

Who are some of the notable people that influenced you to go your direction of musical choice?

I would have to say that my biggest influence musically was Diddy because he showed me more musically. He showed me different styles and how there could be sub genres of rap/hip-hop. Lanes that alot of artist use now. Melodic rap, sample beats, remakes, remixes or etc; he would showed me that first. He wasnt too cool for any kind of style or idea he would take it there if he felt the vibe for it. And to be clear I'm talking strictly musical influence. Not the business side just the music.

Besides music, what other things you love to do?

I love sports, cooking, i love to spend time with my family, take trips around the world.

Can you tell us about your latest project?

My latest project “Honorable Mention” consist of 16 tracks. The title came from my journey in this game. I have been around awhile rapping and doing my things but I don't get mentioned much. There’s always a list of artists somewhere excluding my name. Now I just kind of embrace it for what it is. Thats why its called Honorable Mention.

What are your near future plans?

get more involved in the NFT world. Invest in real estate. Open a few more small businesses.

Anybody you like to work with?

That would be a very long list lol but if I had to chose just one and it was like right here and now it would be Jay-Z.

Any last remarks? God is great!

Michelle Rose Exclusive Interview

Q: What's it like growing up in Mpls? Does the city have interesting stories about Prince? A: I only lived in Minneapolis until I was three, but I have fond memories of it. Even now that I live in a suburb of Minneapolis, I still feel like I'm a part of Minneapolis. I think a lot of Minnesotans have "Minneapolis Pride", even if they don't live in Minneapolis. Minneapolis has so many fun things to see and do, and the arts are very important here, with so many theaters and live shows. Prince put us on the map for music. I hear Prince stories everywhere I go in Minnesota. I've met so many people who were associated with Prince, including one of his dancers, and even a former Paisley Park employee working as a cashier at the local grocery store, so I've heard many Prince stories. I wish I could've been a Chanhassen resident when Prince was still alive, because I know that many Chanhassen residents saw him casually riding his bike around

Den Edie Flyah interveiw So could you tell us a little bit about your upbringing in Ohio? I was sent to guitar leasons by my parents when I was 10 years old. My uncle lived with us back in Ohio then and he played the drums. I grew up with a Rock band practicing in my basement. I did not know it at the time but this little town I lived in knew how to rock. When did music become your main interest and what lead you to take music so seriously? When I was 13 I saw my first rock concert. It was The kinks (one for the road tour.) It changed me instantly. Suddenly that was the only thing I wanted to do. To this day I'm still doing it. My guitar obsession had just started and I did take some music theory lessons as well. I began learning how to create music or write a song. I recently worked with two clasical Violinist. A Saxsaphone player and a Pianist. The Music theory lessons did pay off as I was able to talk to them in a launguage they understood. Being a Singer
