Ever wonder how a single decision can change everything?

Three years ago, I took a leap — not just to quit drinking but to reclaim my life. It hasn’t been a straight path; let’s be real, sobriety is less of a one-time cure and more like a 24-hour prescription that you need to renew daily. Every. Single. Day.

Here’s what I’ve discovered along the way:
Sobriety isn’t just about giving something up; it’s about gaining everything else. Clarity, connection, energy, and purpose. It’s saying yes to being fully present, to living the highs and lows without an escape hatch, and to showing up as your truest self.

Every day, I wake up and recommit. Some days, it’s effortless. Others, it’s a battle. But through every 24-hour cycle, I’ve learned the art of resilience, the power of grace, and the value of staying grounded.

And the most profound truth? Sobriety works, but only if you work it — one day at a time.

For anyone wondering if it’s worth it: it is. Not because it’s easy, but because the growth, joy, and strength you gain make every struggle meaningful.

To those who’ve supported me, stood by me, or simply believed in me — thank you. You’ve been my safety net, my cheering squad, and my constant reminder that no one walks this road alone.

So here’s my question for you: What’s the one decision you could make today that could change your life? Drop a comment, let’s talk, and remember: no mountain is too big when you tackle it step by step.

I know I've been a bit quiet on social media lately, but it's been for a great reason. I've been (and still) working on some exciting projects.

One month ago, I ventured into the heart of Kosovo, and while I absolutely loved soaking up the rich history of the country, but not all moments were picture-perfect.
From my epic fail at ordering coffee in Albanian to being photobombed by a street dog who definitely thought it owned more of the place than I did.
PS: Thank you Hostage for the nose stripes!

📖 Reflecting on World Bible Day 📖

Many of you might not know this, but my faith plays a fundamental role in my life. Today, on World Bible Day, I'm especially moved to share this part of me. While some of my track titles over the years might have hinted at this, it’s a personal journey that continues to inspire and guide me.

The Bible isn’t just a book to me; it’s the living Word that lights my path and informs my decisions. It’s a source of comfort during tough times and a reminder of the endless love that guides us through darkness.

Today, let’s open this sacred text together. Let’s listen to what God has to say and renew our commitment to living a life filled with hope, renewal, and grace, just as I try to infuse these elements into my music.

"Because I live, you also will live." (John 14:19)

Happy World Bible Day. Whether through my music or through these words, I hope to share the peace and guidance I've found. May the Word of God be a guide and a refuge for you as it has been for me.

📸 #2: The man behind the Bible
📸 #3: My daily reading of the Bible, a constant source of inspiration.

Despite spending 11 years in Belgium, I always love coming back in Brussels.

This city saw me growing and being the man I am today.

The kind of man that love playing golf for the calmness it bring to my mind.

As an artist, the break I took the last 8 months has been rejuvenated.

if you heard anything bad about me believe all that s**t and leave me alone.

This comeback is personal, it’s an apology to myself.

Exactly a year ago today, I wrapped up one hell of a remix project. JUL (saint Jean La Puenta) might stir up mixed feelings in the music world, but you can’t deny his talent—France's best-selling rapper for a reason!

Love him or hate him, Jul always leaves an impression. And while what started as a playful challenge with my best friend, blending rap & techno—two of my favorite genres—turned into something truly special. 🚀

Here’s a fun fact: my remix, meant as a light-hearted birthday celebration last year, has been making waves, even rocking dance floors in Argentina at Elements Club in Buenos Aires thanks to Ivory .

Big thanks for all the support, et Jul, si tu lis ça, je t’aime le J, viens on fait un son ensemble.

What do you all think? Should I dive deeper into this genre blend? Let me know! 🎶💥
