We had the good fortune of connecting with Korrect and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Korrect, alright, let’s jump in with a deep one – what’s you’re definition for success?
I define success as the achievement of a milestone or a goal, No matter how big or small. In my opinion, the best success is rooted in fulfilment. Accomplishment without fulfilment is empty, so I believe its best to seek success while walking in your purpose to thoroughly enjoy the fruits of your “success”.
Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
As an artist, I believe I offer a unique perspective. I intend to create art that not only entertains, but inspires. I want to reach audiences with an intentional message that can be felt across generations. I am most excited about the journey that lies ahead and as I continue to mature and learn my craft, I would hope that the results produced will be groundbreaking. Where I am today is not where I always was, so that is progress in and of itself and I would attribute that to my faith and consistency. I am learning to be more present in where I am and to be more proactive in regard to the future. I want my brand to be a symbol of resilience and hope for our people. I would like audiences to be able to resonate with the direction of my approach and to feel seen, heard and empowered through each and every production. I want the world to know that true authenticity is freedom and to love yourself will help you better love others. I can only hope that the art I produce continues to perpetuate these idea and that my story will come to help another person’s story in the same ways my favorite artists have helped me.
If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
I would first recommend a few culinary staples of the city. From Soul Food to vegan options, Atlanta offers a variety of eateries suitable for even the pickiest of eaters. Names Like the “Busy Bee Cafe” and “Big Daddy’s cafe” are highly respected amongst native and local residents, but there are plenty of other options that go under the radar. Depending on what your idea of fun is, everybody knows Atlanta is known for its vibrant nightlife and notorious landmarks. I enjoy going skating and bowling but I also enjoy going to the Aquarium and the Atlanta Zoo, Depending on the time of year, there is always some sort of festival or gathering going on. I would recommend visiting Underground Atlanta during the summer months for a taste of the culture of the city. The Battery Atlanta is another hotspot Id recommend as well. You can watch the Braves play and enjoy yourself in any of the surrounding establishments at just about the same time. Honestly, I’d like to think we have something for everybody .
The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
My first shoutout goes to God, My journey thus far has been full of ups and downs and I am grateful to Him for every bit of it. I am extremely thankful of my supportive family and how they have continued to push me towards my dreams in every arena possible. I am blessed to have a team of individuals that contribute their time and have played various roles throughout the matriculation of my career thus far, Without them I would not have even made it to this point. A huge shoutout goes to those that have listened, purchased, promoted, and supported the brand as fans and lovers of the art. I am overjoyed and excited to present to you all new material in the near future
