About Quinton Hakeem

In the artist’s words: Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. I remember being at Jazz Fest back in 97', watching my mom as she sung on stage under the gospel tent. As she performed I was rushed with emotions that words could not explain. That was the moment I knew that singing was what I wanted to do. What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Musiq Soulchild, Aijuswanaseing Stevie Wonder, Songs in the Key of Life USHER, Confessions (Expanded Edition) These albums show what I inspired to be as an artist. They all have strong storylines and very strong creative direction. Musiq brought a raw emotion, Stevie helped me to develop my sound, and Usher showed me storytelling but they all taught me love. Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “Come For” Come For is a song that has many messages, one being about your forever person (partner) in ways of showing love and affection towards each other and another being confident in love with-in yourself. This song makes me feel vulnerable and transparent What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? Releasing "Lockdown" changed the course of how I would present my art to the world. This album was made for me with the intention of helping those with similar life patterns or those needing help escaping the harsh reality of life, a selfcare album. Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? To be heard and seen by the masses, I want to sell out Madison Square Garden. Collaborate with more like minded artist.
