What's a typical day in the life for you?: I wake up, coconut oil pull for 15 minutes, take a shower, smoke a spliff and make a smoothie. Check my phone, see what’s up. Go to the gym or the park in my neighbourhood to work out. I don’t have friends in my area so I’m pretty much a loner. I don’t really go downtown in the day unless I have plans. I’m mostly home; writing, going over DJ sets, planning events. I honestly smoke a lot of weed and talk to myself in third person lol. If I turn on the TV, it’s only to watch the food network. I spend a lot of time with my Mom; we cook together and watch movies etc. I usually go on road with my mom but she recently opened a flower shop with my cousin so she’s been busy with that. When I go to bed at night, I read until I fall asleep, it really works.
