For you, what’s the most rewarding aspect of being a creative?
The Most amazing Rewarding Aspect of being an artist is seeing your hard work pay off and seeing the end product of your creative mindset.
Everyone know in life the more you work hard the more it’s going to pay off. But as an artist when your in the recording session for 4+ hours because you Adding Vocal Stacks or tweaking your snare or Hi-Hat or Drum 808 to sound a certain or have a fuller sound. And when you finally accomplish it makes you feel so proud and excited to keep doing more until everything is perfect.
For me the most rewarding aspect is Having a song idea starting with a melody , and then it progressing into Lyrics and then into a beat and recording then mixing and mastering it , It’s an amazing and nostalgic feeling listening to finish product.
Is there mission driving your creative journey?
My Goal In Life at this very moment is to become a well-known R&B Singer & Songwriter. Being able and happy to see that people are connecting with my music and artistry & being able to work with people I looked up to in the music industry. That’s my main goal for my creative journey and there’s more to come ! After I accomplish my goal
