We caught up with the brilliant and insightful Teejay Drye a few weeks ago and have shared our conversation below.
Alright, Teejay thanks for taking the time to share your stories and insights with us today. We’d love to hear about a project that you’ve worked on that’s meant a lot to you.
The most meaningful project I worked on was “With Love, Teejay” or my newest album “Man On Fire” both were written and made around a very dark time in my life. Those was the ones that not only kinda proved to myself I’m good at making music but that I should never second guess what I put my heart into.
Teejay, before we move on to more of these sorts of questions, can you take some time to bring our readers up to speed on you and what you do?
I got into making music just out of boredom and also a deep love of just art. I knew I wasn’t talented enough to be a painter or a sculptor so I decided to try to write my thoughts out, also I think that’s what sets me apart from others , I tend to overthink my words just to make sure I say things I can stand behind. What I’m most proud of is my growth as a artist as I feel myself becoming more natural behind a mic with a notepad. I hope my supporters just realize that my music is never to be taken as is, just whatever you take from it, truthfully I’m just venting.
Is there mission driving your creative journey?
I can’t say it’s some big goal or mission , the only thing that matters to me is just my happiness with this whole music thing. I mean yeah I’d love to be a star and sell millions of records but sometimes that don’t really matter when your mental isn’t all the way there. Once music stops being a fun way to vent I’ll probably go do some other stuff.
We’d love to hear your thoughts on NFTs. (Note: this is for education/entertainment purposes only, readers should not construe this as advice
bro I got no idea , I’m always gonna be a fan of physical cash in my account or in my hand. Maybe it’s a science I haven’t figured out yet I dunno.
