We had the good fortune of connecting with OhKayWhy and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi OhKayWhy, how do you think about risk?
With no risk there is no reward . That quote changed my life at 13 years old . While I never quite fully understood the magnitude and depth of it; it’s a mantra I’ve basically followed and kept alive within self all these years . I feel risk is important, everywhere your eyes touch there was someone doubting someone’s risk to take things somewhere not seen, felt, heard or experienced before . Risk taking has been extremely beneficial throughout my life and career; I guess now at this point in time of my career I’m just able to make better sense of each of them .

Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
Well by default I’m big on personal experiences . It’s safe to say for the last four years strong I’ve developed my brand behind what I call the OhKayWhy experience . I’m all about performance . High energy and expression . Translating what music I sample into my body through rhythm and dance has allowed performing to become my great niche .

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
I’d definitely recommend a theme park ideally since I’m a big kid at heart . Or some place to eat, see what him/her craving and make recommendations from there . Oh and I’m all about seizing the moments so we’d take pictures a lot of pictures so being fly is a must .

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
I want to give a huge shoutout to anyone that believes in me . Anyone that values any relationship we have had or still have . Anyone that is uninspired seeking to get inspired . My entire direct family has saved my life more times than none; especially my lil brother Trey . So shoutout to them, shoutout to Anye Wright a good friend of mine for thinking of me and shoutout to yall . All of yall reading this
