We had the good fortune of connecting with Foreign Evolution and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Foreign Evolution, we’d love to hear about how you approach risk and risk-taking
With Foreign Evolution being in the music industry every decision he makes is a risk. Foreign says that because not every artist is bringing in millions of dollars and we all have everyday bills and priorities. However, there are times when opportunities occur and you might have to make sacrifices and risk not paying a bill, or you might have to call out of work because you have such a great opportunity. Foreign Evolution says he has been placed in so many situations similar to this and would say every time it’s worth it. He highly believes in himself and his craft so he is willing to take risks to put himself in a better position. Foreign strongly believes that everything happens for a reason and the man above will lead him to where he needs to be.
Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
Music is one of the most beautiful types of art. For Foreign, it’s how he can tell my story and express himself. When he makes music he puts his emotions and feelings into it which makes his fans relate to what he is saying and understand him more. Music never dies so it is like a personal audio journal. What sets Foreign Evolution apart from other artists is that he makes music for himself and allows others to enter his world. Meanwhile, other artists attend to make music for their fans. Foreign says he is still learning new things about music and the music industry but he thinks that’s one of his strong traits because he is always learning. Foreign Evolution has learned nothing worth having comes easy so he knows to give his all and overcome each challenge that comes his way. Foreign says when his time is up and his story is told he wants the world to know what he has been through and how it kept him going. He wants the listener to learn from his mistakes and avoid them. Foreign Life Records will one day be a known label globally and will stand for unity and teach artists the ways to success.
If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
As of lately, Foreign Evolution has been on a diet because Foreign is a diabetic so he doesn’t eat out much. However, if you are looking for a spot to get out he would say go to little five points because you can find a place to eat and go shopping all on the same street but most of the time when my friends come to Atlanta they already have a list of things they want to do.
