Music was like, that one thing I could connect with, and I wanted people to feel the same sense of connection with my music that I did with other artists music, like Tupac, Kanye, and as of recently, J Cole and XXXTentaction

Twist Online : Tell us about your recent release ‘Distant’?
Young Orpheus : Distant was kinda of crazy, I’ve got an album I’m working on right now, and I’ve been working on it for two years, but for some reason I felt like I needed to release something, so it just kind of happened. It was almost magical, not to sound corny or anything.

Young Orpheus : Hip Hop for sure. No two ways about it
