I met up with Mosby last year in preparation for my first show; YouthRave and I found out that the young rapper is more than an artiste, he's a bundle of energy. The C.U. Undergraduate spoke to JK about his life, being a momma's boy, the success of his hit-track; FadeNation and his future! Enjoy!

Mosby: Mehnn!!! Nobody really known oo. (Laughs) But small small sha.
JK: What would you say has been your best and your worst experiences so far in your career?
Mosby: Uhmmmm; Best experience should be when I recorded something, personally I didn't like it but all of a sudden, a couple guys started saying it was mad and I hadn't listend to the mastered version yet. They were telling me online. And my worst experience; Jesu! (Exclaims!) When some friends calmly told me a song of mine was wack. That was fucking deep yo.
