Interview with rapper ballerina Demie The Destroyer

from China Underground

 How and when did you get into music? Why did you decide to become a singer and why did you choose to be a rapper, instead of other kinds of music?

 I’ve always loved music growing up. I started out dancing ballet and consuming mostly classical music. It was when I first saw kpop that it really inspired me in the way it melded music and dance performance together- something I had not seen before.

I chose to rap simply because it is the medium of communication that resonated with me most.
