Norf Shore - 'Sentimental Value' Interview

See this content in the original post

Why did you make this album?

Sentimential Value was made to inspire the next generation to create their own sound rather than follow a wave. 

What inspired the title 'Sentimental Value'?

Sentimential Value is another way to save love. The title and original idea was "Music that you can feel "did you feel it?

If you could do remix to one song on the album and anyone as your guest feature, what song what it would be and who would you have on it?

If I could do a remix of any track on sentimental value it would be "Mr.Shore" feat. Lil Debbie. I have a couple true Norf Shore supporters in the bay area

which is San Fransico, California and I look forward to expanding my reach.

Who helped make this album what it is? Writers, Producers, Muses, Support System, Etc.

Sentimental Value credits go to Amg, Christian Penn, G.lokko, Mike Lugo, Kartist and Tymelez. Like myself Kartist is a Artist/Producer who assisted me in the majority of my EP. Kartist produced "2K" and "Uhaul". Kartist featured on "SOMOS MORAENOS" which is also our music duo. So if you enjoyed Sentimental Value you're going to love

Somos Moraenos the group coming very soon. My engineers Christian Penn and Mike Lugo provived me a space to record the best possible takes. Christian Penn who runs his organization called "Projctivity" which provided a solid support system for my brand to grow. Mike Lugo who runs his studio out in Brookyln "House of Fire NYC". 


What is your favorite track? Why?

My favorite track would have to be "Mr.Shore". I feel like it's neccessary for every artist to have a introduction track. Yes, I have made music before, But have I introduced myself?

When did you know you wanted to make music?

I wanted to make music back in Highschool. The enviornment was triving with creativity. I decied to start with beats than I wanted more.

What is your dream now that you just accomplished this dream? Have you ever been Stereotype'd? Tell us more.

My dream is just getting started. Sentimental value is one for the books. My next dream is to become more business minded. Change my environment and watch for results.

Have you ever broke a Stereotype someone had of you? Tell us about it

Yes I have. Actually recently someone called my phone by mistake on face time. It was a 

Korean man, Due to color-ism in the east, out of fear he tossed his phone in the air. But after he hid his face we began to talk. I told him one of my music inspiration was 2NE1 which is a K pop group. After that conversation we got along just fine. Which got me thinking how us as a people can unite art and activism to spread a message. 

What advice would you give to something that is looking to pursuit their dreams?

To the people that are pursuing their dreams don't conform to the powers that be.
