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

Hi Slim, how has your work-life balance changed over time?
It’s almost like having another job . After work I got a family to take care of and to provide for . Everyday is like a long work day that goes into late nights,early mornings !

Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
My daily job is a fitness coach and after my work day is over I enjoy making music . What sets me apart from other artists is that I’ve been being more consistent with my music and everything you hear in my songs is from my upbringing and everything that I’ve been through or been around, it’s just what I know . I let everything inside my head out into my songs . My music consists of horrorcore, trap, drill type of songs but I’m versatile and trying to get out of my element more . What I’m most proud of is that with every song I make the better I get . Practice makes perfect . I’m also excited to know that I’m growing a fan base as well and I’ve been taking music seriously for just over a year now. How I got today professionally is just from being consistent as I possibly can . Having late nights grinding my music and working hard ! The process has definitely not been an easy right . Trying to manage a daily job and making time for your family has definitely been tough . For me my family definitely comes first before my music and that comes into staying up late at night making songs or coming up wish different ideas listening to music . The lessons I’ve learned along the way is to just try to stay consistent as possible and if you’re really trying to gain some traction is to take in as much advice as possible to help you perfect your craft . Also so many people have different opinions on your music too. Someone might love your music and then someone might hate your music . If you love what you do and enjoy it then keep doing it regardless of what people say. Just because someone says something doesn’t mean it’s true whether it’s good or bad it’s only their opinion. I try not to do my best on not letting anything affect me . What I want the world to know about my story is that if you really want it then go for it. The only person stopping you is you . If you really want it that bad then go make it happen . It’s you versus you . Invest in yourself and perfect your skills !

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
I live in Oklahoma and some exciting things you can do here would be going to watch the Oklahoma City Thunder basketball game ! There’s also other amusement parks here , museums,water parks ,and great scenery, and numerous lakes to go to with resorts .

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
I’d like to give a shoutout to Lil Johnnie for all the help that he has giving me and advice on my music journey and to the creator for making everything in this world possible . Also I’d like to give a shoutout to my mother that has passed away. She has always told me to pursue whatever I wanted and believed in me when no one else did and she always has my back through everything ! And last but not least I’d like to give another shoutout to my wife ! She supports me and everything that I do and has been with me through thick and thin . She really is my rock and I’m thankful to have her and her encouragement and advice !
