L: Tell us a little about your background; how & where were you raised,  your current role, how you create- 

N: I was raised in Palmdale, California within a very active household. My siblings are all bold and strong willed individuals and my parents are the same. Sounds cool, but that lead to endless disagreements amongst all of us. My pops plays a huge role in my life both negatively and positively. One of the many things he’s known for is a builder. He did construction and built homes as a side hustle. Pops would gather the boys in the house and we’ll all go complete whatever job he had for the weekend. I seen how critical it is to believe in yourself and that you can learn to do anything. My mother showed me fearlessness. She pursued whatever idea that came to mind and did the necessary research and study to be qualified for the task. She’s lit. I’ve seen both my parents succeed and fail in front of the family and that taught me so much. My love for music comes from my Pops. I loved how much he loved music. He collects music and makes his own mixtapes of Jazz, soul, and oldies. It’s the most tasteful selection of music ever! The music in the house was one of the ways the boys connected with each other. It meant a lot to me. 

L: What inspires you to create?

N: Almost everything inspires me to create music. I’ve been at it for so long that it’s like waking up and brushing my teeth. There’s a day that goes by and you ain’t brushed yo shit, but 99% of the time you do. 

Let me flip this! What inspires me not to create music is when my spirit is aware of the need to create in another field of life. For example, creating a specific environment within my home, and creating a fun dynamic within my marriage. Still, I’m creating but in a different field. All which are hugely important and I’m constantly inspired to do.

L: What has been the highlight of your career?

N: The highlight of my career was becoming aware that my gifts are for others and not myself. The more I increased my capability to help others the more popular I became. This gave me a strong purpose for my talent and was a highlight moment for me. 

L: Who are the top 3 people you look up to?

N: Top 3 people I look up to are my brother Pj, Dj, and my uncle William. The reason I look up to these guys is that their heart is made of pure gold. Selfless love! They are there for you! People should write a book about these 3 men. I hope to live a life filled with love like these guys. 

L: How do you hope to leave your mark, & inspire others?

N: I’m leaving my mark in this world by leaving love’s fingerprints on everything I come into contact with. All living things receive love and I choose to use love as my tool to create and impact the world. Boom! Shabang dadang! 

Geza & I met Nate Roots through his now wife Janelle. His energy was so good, no other way to explain it but pure good for the soul energy. I think the most important part of this friendship was all four of us being in each others lives through big breakthrough moments. Nate is not only a full-time friend to all but also an amazing creator. His music inspires both Geza & I! His vibe is always lit, anytime we hear a new beat he created we instantly think of video concepts we can create to go along with his music. His authenticity is his biggest asset. He is 100% himself, and that is something I look up to.

Thank you Nate for being family and constantly supporting us! We’re here for you homie.
