From the Garden: An Interview with JoeMunna - New Single "Fallin"
Check out JoeMunna's new single "Fallin"
Joe Munna might be a name you’re unfamiliar with at the moment, but he’s gearing up for a massive drop at the end of the spring with his project “Finessin Hearts”, so you’re going to want to familiarize yourself with the Chicago artist.
In order to get familiar with Joe Munna if you’re not already, or to hype yourself up for the promising new project dropping next year, it’s mandatory that you check out his brand-new single “Fallin” and see what all the hype is about.
The Ghetto Flower spoke with the rising artist about his work, his favorite moments, and the inspiration behind it all.
THE GHETTO FLOWER: You’re only 22, but you’ve put in tons of work with artists. When did you first know you wanted to be a part of the business?
JOE MUNNA: I idolized Lil Wayne, Mac Miller, and Drake growing up and they all had inspiration on just being myself and creating music how I think it should sound.
TGF: Who are some of your creative inspirations when it comes to recording and being an artist?
JM: My creative inspiration comes from being in a very open-minded family and friend circle that allows me to truly be myself and explore. I don't ever feel myself being limited creatively and I think that's so important because a lot of people hold themselves back from experimenting out of fear of being judged.
TGF: Describe the message that you are trying to get across to the audience with your new single "Fallin" What exactly is the track about?
JM: Fallin is about me really just being kinda lost at the moment. A very euphoric beat, it just made me think of my life right now. Girls in n out of my life so I never know who really there for me, my brother just got locked up so I try to make sure I can answer all his phone calls, etc. We all go through a lot n sometimes it just feels like we’re free-falling from 20’000 ft in the air. But that's okay bc u always land on ur feet n keep moving.
TGF: With everything that goes into working on a project and creating music, what would you say is your favorite part about the process?
JM: My favorite part about making music is that it's 100% up to me how I want to make it sound. Being an artist, it's your job to paint a picture with words, and there's an unlimited amount of ways to accomplish just that.
TGF: With your career being so short thus far, what are some of your future goals?
JM: My future goals hmmm. I hope to break into the top 100 charts and hopefully one day win a grammy! But for now, I just wanna be able to live off my work.
TGF: Are there any artists out there that you REALLY want to work with in the future?
JM: In the future id love to work with Chicago artists like Brentrambo, G herbo, keef, Valee, Calboy. But in general, I think we all need that Drake features to seal the deal!
TGF: What is next for you? Do you have any releases scheduled for the near future?
JM: I am actually releasing at least 1 song a week on my SoundCloud until my tape “Finessin Hearts” drops in the spring!
