His latest single chops down his life into one big song, he talks about heartbreaking events that happened in his life as child growing up being born in war with some of lyrics even getting him to shed a tear.

“One day I picked up pen and started writing, I was brainstorming to go back digging for stories and there were these stories and pictures that stuck into my mind. I was living through them, but wasn’t opened to them. It was so hard to talk about personal things, I didn’t think people were ready to hear this type of music but this my story and its time for me to let people know who I am.” – GABREAL
