Da Stash Box Interviews NewBrain
Hailing from Portland, Oregon, NewBrain is definitely an impressive young talent. Hot on the heels of his hit single "Love My City", we bring you one of the brightest shining stars in the underground.
Where do you represent?
I moved around alot as a kid. I've lived up and down the west coast . Since 15 I've lived in Portland Oregon on and off. It is the only city I consider to be home. My current single "Love My City" is all about Portland. No matter where I live I will always rep the 503.
What inspires your music?
That's a simple question. Life experiences inspire my music. Rather it be pain, struggle, or happiness. I write about what I have been through and what I want to attain. I have always been inspired by Hip Hop that tells a story rather then just a club banger with meaningless lyrics. Not to say I am not a sucker for club bangers.What has been your favorite moment in your career so far?
I've played or been in various bands and projects. Going on tour with my previous post hardcore band Roseway had alot of great moments. The greatest moment of NewBrain is hearing my song on the radio for the first time. It was surreal and humbling. I will never forget that moment.
What goals do you wish to achieve in music?
To be the best that I can. The cliche answer would be to become a huge artist and make lots of money. Although that would be great, its not a priority of mine. I want to write real music that people can connect and relate to. If I can inspire or help people through music that's more then enough achievement for me.
Would you change anything about the music industry?
Short answer would be YES. If you can stay independent that's the way to go. The industry is a business. It's about the bottom line. If I could change anything I would give more power to the people making the art. That's how it should be.
Where do you see yourself in 5 years from now?
I feel like I am getting interviewed for a job (haha). I will probably be living in some huge mansion talking about where I was 5 years ago. Honestly I do not know. Whatever God has for me I will take. I know I will be making music for sure. Rather that be for an audience of one, or millions. Obviously I have huge goals as an artist. I will continue to work hard to attain them. In 5 year's I would love to solely make music for a living. The 9 to 5 gets old, haha.
