DNA. Parose.

Today we had a little chat with

Nolan

23 years old,

German-American

aka Parose

How did you approach music?

- Music has always been my passion, ever since I was a child. I have always sung songs and had a great interest in musical instruments. I started rap music at the age of 16 and today I can say that I have made my passion my job.

What did it mean for you to start rapping at 16?

- The kids at school used to make fun of me and mock me for what they did not conceive of as art... But I didn´t care, I just always wanted to improve. 

Where does your passion for music come from? Are any of your parents artist?

- No, neither of my parents is an artist or has anything to do with music. The passion for music comes from my interest in languages and the passion for writing that I have always had from an early age. I started writing down my experiences and singing them, I have always found. in music a means to help me better understand myself and my difficulties.

Would you therefore define music as something therapeutic?

- Absolutely, music for me has always been a means to combat difficulties, and throwing them out into the world has helped me overcome certain blocks I had and have had throughout my life. 

What was the turning point for you?

- The turning point I think was when I turned 20 and I started as producer and realised that what had previously been a means to feel less lonely, music, had become what I would live by. Before the age of 20, the earnings related to my artistic activity were almost non-existent and I invested most of what I had in music. 

What is the song you would have liked to write?

- Definitely ´Man in the mirror´ by Micheal Jackson

Who were the artists that mattered most to you and from whom you took inspiration?

- XXXTentacion, Lil Peep and Eminem.

Describe in three words what DNA is for you:

- Well, in three words it´s really hard but if I have to choose they are:
Family, love and connection
