Only Real is a dub-step/hip-hop inspired  artist that provides his listeners with stories and inspirational messages, through his incredible lyrics. After discovering his music on MySpace we thought that he would be the perfect person to interview for our unsigned segment but after listening to one or more of his tracks we decided that his talent should only be showcased through our 'Artist Of The Day' segment. 


HAVE A LOOK AT OUR INTERVIEW WITH HIM!

What are bands/artists are you influenced by?

I think J. Cole is an artist that I am influenced by, I am a huge Hip Hop fan and this is pretty clear through my music.

I’m also influenced by Ska and Dub music, the song YKG has a Buju Banton sample and some Ska style organs.

Did you always want to be a musician?

No, not until I was 15. I actually wanted to be a dolphin feeder, I don’t even know if that really existed (laughs).

If you had to collaborate with an artist who would it be and why?

Kanye ... Holla at ya boy! 

      

What’s your favourite song that you’ve written?

I would say lemonade is the song where I go in hardest!, the simple beat forced me to give three verses of some of my best lyrics.
