The project was originally scheduled for release on 7/21 but was pushed back due to him not reaching his goal weight. For the last two years, Fokis has been on a fitness mission doing Crossfit and has dropped over 85 lbs, (Click Here To Watch) his goal was to be at 199 by 7/21. “I feel like a brand new artist, I am totally re-inspired to create music and super excited to release this project. This album is very honest and personal to me, it is a reflection of everyday life, the highs, the lows the good the bad and everything else in between. For me it’s not about money and fame but more about inspiring and connecting with the people, at the end what matters most is how you impact peoples lives.” – Fokis
