Few words about your musical background and career?
Dede K:
Started music as Lil Bideo back in 2009 (while I was still in college). Had to drop music for some years to finish up my Bs.c education.

Music has always be part of me and I don’t see myself doing something else whilst I’m steady discovering new vibe.
Nagamag:
Do you remember your first connection of love to music that was the right impact to be a music artist now?

Not sure.. grew up listening to legends and tbh, I’m not sure when I actually had interest in music but I do remember when it was time for me to record my first track in 2009
Nagamag:
How would you describe the music that you typically create?
