We had the pleasure of interviewing Prophi$ee. Here are excerpts from the interview.
Hi, It’s great to have you with us today! Please share about yourself with our readers.
Hi, My name is Isaiah, but you know me as either 8thWonder, ProphiSee, or Prophi$ee. I only go by Prophi$ee, and I chose that name because I have my own gospels and scriptures I want people to enjoy and listen to. I make music, but I’m definitely more than meets the eyes. I’m multitalented and somewhat of a scholar. Music has always been my passion, and I take pride in everything that I do. When you think of me, just think of someone who has never had anything go his way, always has to fight for the smallest of joys, and always pulls through no matter what adversity comes his way.
Please tell us about your latest single, ‘No Holding Back.‘
I am still finding my voice and my sound, but my latest single is “No Holding Back,“ and it’s just telling a story about lifting yourself and reminding yourself that you gotta remember who you are at all times during all stages of life. Breaking through those tough situations and telling yourself that there’s no more holding back with God, Life and How You Live & Carry Yourself.
Please share your journey with our readers.
My journey is ongoing, so I feel like I am still grooving out the path, but so far, I am on my second song in two years; not much of a journey so far, but the impact from those around me helps me every day when it comes to making music. I have people around me who speak the truth and let me know how I can add more value and life to my music. I’m loving every encounter and taking mental notes to become one of the OGs in the rap game one day.
What are the strategies that helped you become successful in your journey?
Some of my strategies are basically formulating music in any form during my downtime and not making everything feel like a job. At times, I’ll go weeks, sometimes a month or longer, without anything registering, and finally, I’ll have a breakthrough. I would say that you never give up even when you are stuck or have writer’s block; it’s not that you are stuck; you just have to find a different imagination to draw from to formulate something different. Your mind is used to doing things a certain way, so at times, you gotta be stubborn and take control and ask yourself how you can do this and that differently to stand out from the rest.
Any message for our readers?
If you have been following me so far on my journey, the growth will continue to be there, and I’m only going to get better. Thank you for all the support.
Thank you so much, Prophi$ee, for giving us your precious time! We wish you all the best for your journey ahead!
