Edited By Silver GS Interview 1. How did you get started in the world of comedy?  I was working for the State of Texas as an investigator and a friend at work was putting together a charity event and as the office funny guy wanted to know if I was interested in performing a stand-up routine. He had asked me the previous year but I had declined. For some reason in 2011 I finally said yes. I looked for some local open mics to practice as I had never done stand-up before and I was hooked immediately. I started to get some work locally right off the bat and the rest is history as they say.  Follow Javi Luna on Instagram 2. Who has been your greatest inspiration when it comes to your comedy? Two ways to answer this question, right? If the question is who inspires my material then I would say mostly my family. Immediate, extended, by blood, and by choice. If it is which comedians inspire me early on I would say George Carlin . Not stylistically necessarily but for his approach to the craft.

Edited by Silver GS                               INTERVIEW 1. At what age did you know that you wanted to be an artist and how did you get started in the first place?  Probably when I was 16? I wasn’t running from anything. A friend of mine died in high school, so that made me wonder if I had any dreams worth chasing. I did. 2. Who has been your biggest support throughout your journey as an artist? Honestly, my family. Through thick and thin, they’ve not only supported me doing it… they’re practically fans themselves! To be fair, my dad says I peaked on SoundCloud. 3. How do you prepare mentally before each and every show?  I just imagine the crowd is having a good time, which is tough sometimes when you rely on shitty openers. As long as I can perform by 9PM, I’ll sing my heart out. 4. What song of yours has been the most personal to you and why?   As media-trained as it sounds, my next one. I have to give my producer Wali ( Wolfpacc Music Group ) a lot of credit for allowing me to t

  Edited By Silver GS Interview 1.At what age did you know that you wanted to be an artist and how did you get started in the first place? I knew at 18 I was gonna go ahead and pursue music full time. I wasn’t quite sure at first but my best friend adam told me that I had it and that I should pursue it , that’s how I got started. Clear Soul Forces was the group I created at that time.  2. Who has been your biggest support throughout your journey as an artist? My biggest support? Was definitely my best friend Adam . I also feel like my longtime friend MaLia was also my biggest support through my journey. But I don’t have them in my lives anymore so it’s just me now. Rest in peace Adam 🙏🏾 3.How do you prepare mentally before each and every show?  Ohh this is a good one! Nowadays I rehearse pretty often, whether that’s ideas, freestyling, practice, new sets, breath control practice, endurance practice, so by the time I have a show booked I’m pretty excited I’m trying to figure out what
