Self Love (August,)

HERE. Phor uses creative expression to break strongholds to find mental and emotional peace. His latest project, Self Love, acts as an homage to himself and the strides he’s made to find mental clarity. He recently launched a “Self Love Series” for his followers with curated events catered to self-care and self-love.
His last project, Cake, was a 13-song collection released to memorialize the passing of his cousin with the tribute track “Truly Missed”. In 2017, Phor released Butterfly, which delivered his biggest hit to-date, “Chi-Town.” An ode to the city that raised him, the song gained momentum at mid-west radio with well over 2M views on the A Zae-directed visuals and culminated in a remix from Chicago’s south side legend, BumpJ, Twista, and Lil Durk.
Phor is a multidimensional creative that is the truest sense of the word. Whether designing sneakers for Nike post-high school, tattooing masterpieces or crafting hits in the studio, his creativity is underscored by his influence in Chicago. Music is not a hobby for Phor, but instead his full-time passion – a passion so strong, it positions him for world-renowned musical success.
We decided to have the rapper join us for #MusicModay to talk about his journey, Self Love and more.
