We recently connected with Treon Braxton and have shared our conversation below.
Alright, Treon thanks for taking the time to share your stories and insights with us today. Do you feel you or your work has ever been misunderstood or mischaracterized? If so, tell us the story and how/why it happened and if there are any interesting learnings or insights you took from the experience?
I mean I always been a bit different than everybody, my mom even told me instead of crawling when I was learning to walk I would decide to scoot around on my butt. It was kinda challenging at times, especially at school my teachers would think there was something wrong wimme. They would set up parent teacher conferences and try to tell my mom that I had autism or something. Eventually I learned to embrace it and now I wouldn’t change it for the world cuz me being a misfit and thinking different and moving different helped me get where I am. It’s became my appeal now people enjoy my music because I’m different and I’m always bringing something new and exciting good or bad to every single project I drop.
Great, appreciate you sharing that with us. Before we ask you to share more of your insights, can you take a moment to introduce yourself and how you got to where you are today to our readers.
I mean if I’m being honest I’ve always been this I’ve never not been a musical artist I been obsessed with music for as long as I could remember. That’s what makes me different I understand music in a way that has been unmatched so far because I eat sleep breathe everything move I make is about music every job I get is strictly for my music every breathe I take is for my music. So far my biggest achievement is these two artist we took under our wing kavo da goat and luhterry, me and my brother Solo K took both of these artist from the ground and been taking them up with us every step of the way and both of them having been making their mark as artist and have been doin great at it so far. It makes me happy to know that I had the power to uplift people and make things better for them.
What can society do to ensure an environment that’s helpful to artists and creatives?
Make it ok to be different, we need to stop acting like it’s a bad thing to be weird embrace your weirdness be proud of it because at then end of the day you wouldn’t be you without it.
Is there mission driving your creative journey?
One day I’mma be a icon and imma build a community full of people who understand guys like us and we gone create a movement we gone break down barriers
