Meet Arik Ancelin

Today we’d like to introduce you to Arik Ancelin.

Hi Arik, thanks for joining us today. We’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
When I was 18 years old; I first started doing music. I made my first song called “When I Turn 18” and its music video.

This song was good but it wasn’t my best. My first viral song was “diamond in the rough” this song now has 5.4 million streams on Spotify and I am so proud of it. I have always loved music and now the fact that I can use my voice to make others encouraged to be themselves I am very proud. Over the last 2.5 years, music has changed my life for the greater good.

We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
This road has been up and down but mostly smooth.

At first, it was rough and there have been bullies along the way which made me have rough patches but now I have learned that no matter what anyone else says, I am doing what I love so I am happy.

Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your work?
I am a singer and motivational creator. Also, I am a rapper/content creator.

I specialize in writing music to uplift others. I am most known for my TikTok which is “AKAMrStealYourGirl” and my viral song “Diamond In The Rough” as well as my song “True Colors (feat. Nitti)” and “Living My Life”. I am most proud of my ability to uplift others and to see how much success I have earned over my career.

Also, to see how much other people love my content.

What matters most to you? Why?
The most important thing to me is to always be myself because my family taught me this. Don’t let anyone bring you down in life because we are all different and it is so important to be the person that you are.
