Interview with Alex Porat
Growing up in North America I was deprived of artists in media that looked like me. I struggled to relate to the people who I saw being successful in music and entertainment. I think I tried my best to feel like I belonged in a place where I knew I didn’t fully fit into. It somewhat forced me to be a bit of a shapeshifter and made my dreams feel very far away and almost unattainable.
