Tammy Reese:

What inspired you to get into the music industry?

Yung Rlo:

I grew up loving music, I’ve always had a passion for it. It really wasn’t until 2019 though when I realized that I could actually take it seriously. I had spent the previous year watching tutorials online on how to record, mix, and, master. I learned how to produce the sound I was looking for in my music and I’ve been creating ever since.
