What inspired you to start making music?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Qumar Bandz:<\/strong>\u00a0Honestly, it\u2019s my passion for music. I\u2019ve always been artistically gifted, and that natural inclination to create has really driven me to pursue music. It\u2019s a way for me to express myself and connect with others.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Interviewer:<\/strong>\u00a0That\u2019s really powerful. What\u2019s the story behind your latest release?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Qumar Bandz:<\/strong>\u00a0My latest release is my first album, titled\u00a0<em>Poetry in Motion<\/em>. It\u2019s about expressing how I feel about my current status as a musician. It\u2019s a journey of becoming the person I want to be and learning to boldly believe in myself throughout the process. It\u2019s really personal and reflects where I am in my career right now.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Interviewer:<\/strong>\u00a0That sounds like a deeply reflective project. What have been some of your biggest accomplishments so far?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Qumar Bandz:<\/strong>\u00a0One of the biggest things I\u2019ve done is traveling to put more spotlight on my music career. I\u2019ve had the chance to perform in Miami, and I\u2019ve also gone to New York to work on a music video and record some new songs. Additionally, I\u2019ve been working with Very Rare Cinema, a production company that has worked with both big and small artists in the industry. It\u2019s been great collaborating with them.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Interviewer:<\/strong>\u00a0That\u2019s awesome, it sounds like you\u2019re making big moves! What are your plans for this year?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Qumar Bandz:<\/strong>\u00a0This year, my main focus is to solidify myself as an officially recognized artist. I\u2019m planning to leave my job and pursue my music full time. I\u2019m ready to go all-in and make my mark in the industry.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Interviewer:<\/strong>\u00a0It\u2019s great to hear that you\u2019re taking that leap!
