You know that perfect moment when you stumble upon an artist who is somehow exactly what you’ve been looking for? Me too.
“One in a million, maybe it's me The chances of winning are slimmer than three Moving and shaking and makin' it happen Producing and singing while people was trappin'”
In an interview with NPR’s “All Things Considered” in early 2017, Johnson talked about how the meaning of the song lay in his personal experiences before he signed onto a label. "I was doing production and writing where the money doesn't come consistently," says Johnson. "A lot of my friends, you know, they were doing some illegal activities in order to keep their funds up. And that's not my choice... So I had a lot of people who allowed me to stay on their couch, sleep in their basement, borrow their money to keep me afloat while I'm trying to chase my dreams..."
Along with having a great voice, production experience, and a deep appreciation for those who helped him out along the way, he is currently preparing for another album to be released this year. Based on a short teaser video he uploaded to his Facebook page, it sounds like we can expect more of his trademark soulful sound.
