“No Love” is a song that I created in my basement a month after I got out of my most recent relationship. Our relationship came to an end on Valentine’s Day as we constantly fought over the same topics. It came to a point where our relationship was toxic and I always felt like she wanted to be loved on her own terms, which is how I came up with the hook, “How you showing love without no love?”.

At that point even though I hadn’t worked on music in a month, I still found myself going down to my basement, one of my favorite places to make my music, played the first beat I had just found, and instantly got ideas for the track the second I heard the beat. I began to freestyle to it while recording it on my phone. I remember not liking the song at all, but my sister, who was there, convinced me otherwise. I made a couple tweaks to it then proceeded to record it. Fast forward 9 months and it’s my first song release as an artist.
