Why the Demos are usually Better
It’s raw and unprocessed energy. You weren’t thinking about hitting a certain note or about how the last 90 takes were trash. The only thing you’re thinking about is laying down the idea that you had in your head. You don’t know if it…
The underdog gives a voice to to voiceless, hope to the hopeless, and inspiration in times of desperation. Your actions aren’t just for you, they’re for the ones who are scared to jump off the porch. Your marathon is viewed as motivation to take the first step, not a stark reminder of suffering. Your climb allows the ones at the base to dream.
Don’t stop.
The Secret to Finding Your Sound
A long time ago DJ Premier gave me the secret to finding success as a producer.
Find an artist you like.
Give them your best beats.
Make them a star.
It’s a formula that’s helped me elevate so quickly as a producer that has barely been in the game for ten years.
Micro content rules the social media world now. Squeezing out as much as possible while having a budget has become another job now.
Sending a beat pack isn’t enough.
Be careful who you spend your time with as most people are time wasters from what I hear. Invest in those that are investing in themselves.
