We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Chavis Anderson . We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Chavis below.
Hi Chavis, thanks for joining us today. Can you share an important lesson you learned in a prior job that’s helped you in your career afterwards?
Consistency and a Good routine helps build character. You don’t need a huge team to get things done. My last job was in retail. I’ve always had a job in cooking or dealing with food so it was a challenge transitioning over to the retail side. I never had a job where it was less than 10 employees. We were still able to perform our daily task without any issues. Being an artist means I have to treat my Music as if it was a product to be consumed and find the best Audience to deliver it to. Retail is basically the same thing. The stuff that I’ve learned from my jobs I try to apply it to my everyday life. Whether it’s how to cook steak or sale
Awesome – so before we get into the rest of our questions, can you briefly introduce yourself to our readers.
Music always been apart of me. I started off in music when I was 9 playing the clarinet. When I got to middle school I started playing the alto-sax and writing poetry and r&b songs. I was listening to Mario, Chris Brown, Lyfe Jennings at the time. It wasn’t until High School that I started to actually get into rap. Being at the cafeteria table surrounded by dope individuals who could rap made me want to give it a go. I was never good at freestyle, but I could make dope songs and melodies. And I think thats what really made me want to dive more into the music. I love making music from the soul. Music that I love to hear. I want my music to be able to connect with my listeners in the most Authentic way. To be able to do that is the purest form of art.
What do you think is the goal or mission that drives your creative journey?
I strive for the impossible. I have nothing to prove to nobody but myself. That’s the biggest thing that’s driving me right now and keeping me motivated.
What do you find most rewarding about being a creative?
Most definitely the journey and Connection.
