Hi my people, this is the Young King, Myke Towers and I’m inviting you to spend the day with me. We are at the gym now. Let’s work out.

I’ve been working out for a year or so, it’s not really like I love to work out, but when I saw the results at the shows, I thought “Hmmm, I have to keep on working out in the gym.” Also it helps me clear my mind. I usually train with a coach because I get bored if I do it alone and, you have someone who motivates you like, “Come on, do this.” Otherwise I wouldn’t even come. I need to have music to keep me motivated and even more so if it’s hardcore going out music. I work out five days a week and the other days… I don’t. It helps me be calmer about things because I am able to release that energy and deal with things better.

When I wrote my first song, I was 18 years old, and it was like a freestyle. It wasn’t even a song but I already had something written. I don’t remember it, but I know it was the first thing I memorized to sing to everyone. I sang it a lot. Nobody believed I had written it. It helped me break the ice.
