Here's the Interview: One-On-One with Andre Da Tippa!

1. How did you come into wanting to become a rapper?

I started DJ'ing house parties at 14 years old. In high school, I gained a lot of experience learning what music people reacted good to. Few months after the hobby faded away and I wanted to be more recognized for having a good ear in music. Started rapping at home little by little recording myself and going to other studios locally. Until we built the set up we have today, I fully engineer myself and keep all my production in-house with my team "The Vizitors."

2. What separates your music from other artists? Describe yourself as an artist?

I take pride in my diversity of sound throughout my music catalog. Being a Hispanic from Miami Dade County, breaking in the door of the music industry has been one of the biggest challenges i've faced. We just continue to grow and learn everyday how I can give the listeners better music..

3. What artists motivates you to do music? Where did you adapt your sound from?

I look up to the new wave of artists, so many to list right now but off the top of my head right now Young Thug, Future, Lil Uzi Vert, Tory Lanez, Pitbull, Kap G. & many more im a supporter of good music

4. What would you say is important to you about your music?

After high school trying out multiple paths i realized being an entrepreneur and having complete control of my situation and environment was where i worked most efficient. So when i found my passion for music in my upbringing, A lot of hope ambition and pain explains my drive for anything I do.

5. Being that you're from Miami, did the sound of early hip-hop/rap influence your music in anyway?

Most definitelym i had my older cousins put me on at very early age to Wu Tang, Biggie, Tupac, DMX, Three 6 Mafia, Big Tymers & Cash Money. When I grew older I found my way into the booth at around 15 years old..I directed my love for music into my lyrics and music.

6. At this point, what direction you'd say you think you're settling for your city music scene?

I'm trying to stay in my lane of having no specific genre attached to my name. We want to touch all audiences. Write a record for everyone, for every mood.

7. Okay okay, what do you think will help your city artists become more mainstream?

Don't be afraid to stay original! Sometimes takes time a while to notice results but consistency and drive is the key when your trying to stay on top of your music. Network & relationships are gold keep them like treasures cause they are in the business.

8. Where can fans find you?
