Keeping It Real
Scout|Nov - Dec 2017

SHAKING UP the local music scene is rap artist, Mito Fabie, or more famously known as “Curtismith.” Under relaxing beats, Curtismith’s rhymes pack a lyrical punch, and both his music and personality have caught the attention of many.

Keeping It Real

In collaboration with San Miguel Pale Pilsen, Curtismith brings another fresh new tune for his fans with his song entitled, Ambition. Curtismith is known for pouring his heart out into his songs, and he does just that with Ambition. This song talks about his struggles in following his passion and staying true to himself.

We got to hang out with Curtismith to ask him a few questions about his music career and what this song means to him.

What inspired you to get into the art form?

What pushed you to put your material out there for everyone?
