We recently connected with Témi and have shared our conversation below.

Témi, thanks for joining us, excited to have you contributing your stories and insights. We’d love to hear about when you first realized that you wanted to pursue a creative path professionally.

I knew I wanted to do music when I was five years old. I grew up, listening to baby face and other acts that my older brothers used to play in the house, and it was the time where I fell in love with music. Especially when it came to the 90s music in that sort of thing it was the type of music for me that really spoke to the soul and I think it’s the reason I have such a strong connection with it now. And it’s probably why my songs have that same appeal that same feeling when he comes down to my records

Témi, love having you share your insights with us. Before we ask you more questions, maybe you can take a moment to introduce yourself to our readers who might have missed our earlier conversations?

I got it to the music in history. When I was about 16 years old I was in an R&B group with three other guys and we went around Toronto and performed. We later took it a little seriously and went down to the US and that’s where we ended up getting a record deal was signed to disturbing the peace DEF jam records for about 10 years of my life within that time. I learned a lot about the music in history, and I was able to get a lot of contacts to build what I have now in my solo career. As well as being a musician or an artist myself I am also an audio engineer, a vocal producer, melody creationist, and a writer all these services I provide to my customers that come to the studio, and I work with them diligently to provide the best collaborative product possible.

The main thing that I would want offence to know about my work it’s just I want them to relate to my music. I wanted to relate to my experiences that’s all I want them to know. And (Intern), knowing my music is knowing me.

What’s the most rewarding aspect of being a creative in your experience?

I think the most rewarding aspect of being creative is being able to help people get through experiences through your music. Sometimes we don’t realize how important it is to them here your favourite song, or or that song that speaks about the same thing that you’re going through that the artist had went through and we don’t understand how important it is for someone to actually relate to you so that you don’t feel alone so this is I feel the most important and rewarding part of being an artist

How about pivoting – can you share the story of a time you’ve had to pivot?

I think when you start in this music in history, you first thing that you know you would just be you gonna be able to get signed or get a record deal or even blow up as an artist just by putting out a song then you start to realize that this industry is so much more a business there anything else. With that realization, I noticed, I spent a lot of time, perfecting my craft as a musician for the first stages of my career after that much perfection, and not as much advancement or not the type of advancement that I was looking for I then had to shift and one of the other loves most might not know of is financial daytrading. I’ve been a day trader for the past eight years and it’s really what you need as an artist to be able to push your brand to the next level so I think that I am making the shift to finance was very important for me
