We had the good fortune of connecting with steven van winkle aka overdoze and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi steven van winkle aka, do you have some perspective or insight you can share with us on the question of when someone should give up versus when they should keep going?
never give up on your dreams no matter what! the only way to make it impossible is if you dont try! but if this kinda lifestyle or kind of career isnt for you! thats for u to figure out! sum say this is just a child hood dream ch maybe to them that might be true and thats ok but not to a soldier like me! always try never give up! words from my mama also an artist tammyvanwinkle02@gmail.com

Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?

Ive had to over come backstabbing x homies and skandolis a*s females! ive learned that to some this is just a childhood dream and people grow up well ok like pac said i aint mad atchu! i gotta mission and a dream to make come tru so good ridance! i want the whole world to kno that God Family Cash .. those 3 words aint nothing more important! i love this career but its so competitive and really hard to grasp for some souls but i make musik 1st and fore most because i fukkin love it i enjoy it! i hope the money and fame comes along the way tho!
