K KAM — It’s been interesting, just feels like life is shifting
ISAIAH B — Real real, I seen the rolling loud shit bro that was crazy. Tell me about the experience
K KAM — That shit was crazy gang, an opportunity presented itself and I took advantage in the best way
ISAIAH B — Man it feels like you’re elevating each year, what’s some new artist you’re looking to work with this year
K KAM — Not gonna lie, right now i’m more focused on expanding my brand not really searching for anyone specifically if i’m meant to lock in with more artist it'll just come to me it’s always worked out better that way for me
ISAIAH B — I think that’s a good route, what do you mean by expanding your brand?
K KAM — Shit bro, working on more beat placements, up my modeling career, A big goal of mine for sometime is to open a tour or festival and actually be on the bill
ISAIAH B — That's why I’m glad you’re doing interviews and getting out there more on a personal level & not just Djing, I feel like more people want to know more. Like what’s the origin, How you get your stage name?
K KAM —Lol it’s just one of those alliterations that comes with having the name Kam but the person who coined that for me was `Flipp Dinero after we toured together and then after that was my DJ name

ISAIAH B — How was growing up in the Bronx?
K KAM — Shit bro, It was cool, especially the area I lived in, that shit different from everywhere else in the Bronx. I got my fashion sense and music taste just growing up seeing and hearing different things the thing it taught me most was how to deal with different type of people
ISAIAH B — Speaking of rap, I know you’re tapping into the new artist & the artist that’s been in the game for a minute, what’s your opinion on rap nowadays? You think rap is dying?
K KAM —Ion think rap can never die tbh, we’re in the era where a lot of people are doing it. It changes too much that might be the only problem but ion think it can never die it’ll always be evolving
ISAIAH B — I have to hear it from you, the city source, do you think New York is the biggest influence on music?
K KAM — Yes New York has so much influence on everything in the culture from music to fashion even slang
ISAIAH B — Okay I feel you, it definitely started here. The legends that paved the way, Who’s your top rappers by eras in New York
K KAM — Let’s do 3 from different eras
90’s Biggie Nas and Jay Z
2000’s (50) he got one of the most influential albums of all time, get rich or die tryin. That’s the blueprint Dipset and DMX
Really was messing with the beast coast movement A$AP Mob,Pro Era Flatbush Zombies Underachievers
New Age Picks would be A boogie Lil Tjay Pop Smoke Honorable mentions to Sheff G Sleepy Hallow and Jay Critch
ISAIAH B — I know it’s mad long from now but what do you want your legacy to look like? How do you want to be remembered?
K KAM — I just want people to look at anything I’ve done and feel inspired to chase their own dreams. That's literally how it worked for me. I saw Powers Pleasant crowd surf at Webster Hall, I saw Taco get on top of that big ass speaker at Irving Plaza. Those are two moments that really inspired me hopefully I could do the same for somebody out there
ISAIAH B — That's the real, last question my brother. What’s your message to the people? How to maintain this lifestyle, etc?
K KAM — As far as maintaining the lifestyle I would tell people to remember that you can’t control everything. You might plan things one way and it goes a different way don’t drive yourself crazy when things hit the fan stay whelmed. And I been trying to figure out what I want my message to the people should be usually everyone be screaming don’t give up, believe in yourself and chase your dreams that’s what you should they saying it for a reason, but I just feel like sometimes it’s hard to find comfort and motivation in those statements when things might disheartening but for now i’ll end it like this believe in a higher power and remember it’s never over always to be continued
