Nells Meets BuuVINCHI

"ITS A NYC THING..."

From his music to his fashion choices BuuVINCHI always stands out from the rest. Growing up in NYC he has that natural born NY swagger and dopeness and appreciates the culture NYC has to offer. He's now contributing to the culture by making his own music while promoting originality as well.

Q:When did you realize you wanted to create music?

A:I grew up playing NYC basketball, traveling from borough to borough to play in different tournaments. I was focused more on the music that was playing from the car radio, than the game I was getting ready to play. I didn’t notice till after high school, that I literally had more dreams of rapping, than playing in the NBA, so after high school. I decided to chase that dream instead of basketball.

Q:What does music do for you/how does it make you feel?

A:Music educates me, music teaches me, and music is my eye into cultures that I’ve never personally experienced yet. Whether I feel like the music is good music or bad music, I still appreciates every artist work, because its portal into their life and experiences. Music also keeps me safe from my thoughts, if I don’t have headphones in my ear, I start to think, and my mind starts to race into a million thoughts, and it’s a gift and a curse at times. Music also saves me from listening to stupid conversations on the train *laughs*.

Q:Being that New York City has a reputation for breeding some of the most legendary artists do you feel any pressure?

A:Not at all, music is so diverse, I don’t even compare myself to any other artist. It actually never crosses my mind that another artist has some ass work, and me hoping to be just as dope, and that’s because I wish to be in my own lane. I know if I stay true to my sound. It would soon get recognized, and I will grow as artist.

Q: On your Instagram I’ve noticed that your style stands out not only with your music but, your fashion choices…. Who or what inspires you the most when it comes to fashion& music?

A: Fashion is another thing that helped me get into rap. I was into fashion out the womb. Of course I’m big fan of street wear so I’m a big fan of BAPE, Supreme and Undefeated those are my 3 favorite brands in the street fashion world. Supreme being my most favorite because it started in NY, but none of them inspire me really, like the culture inspires me, and its mostly NYC culture that inspires me, NYC has been creating trends, and new styles for years. Even though a lot designers come from different countries and different cities, but when NYC gets a hold of it. We make it look doper than anybody could ever make it look. Plus other cities get stuff we threw away 5 years ago. Like robin jeans, people in NYC stopped wearing robins in 09 - 2010.

Q:What are some goals you've set for yourself?

A:I just hope to still have the freedom to make music how I want to make music, I also hope to reach a status, where I’m in a position to speak, and people will take the advice, if you know what I mean. I like to spread positivity, but when someone who’s a nobody speaks nobody is going to listen obviously. So I would like to be in position, where I can speak to the youth in a positive way, without them looking at me, like who the hell are you.

Q:What message do you want to send all your supporters that listen to your music?

A: The main message I would like to send out, is positivity and originality, I feel like there’s a lack of leaders and originators. I feel like people are afraid to themselves...

Q:How can people contact you or listen to your music?
