Today was a rap fans wet dream! Started off at the park playing frisbee with Asher talking about music and life… This weather has been too nice not to go outside and enjoy it for being 85 in FEBRUARY! Given this was never possible in Utah, I’m enjoying every minute of it. Went to the studio to record with Blu for 3 hours. Always comes in surgically mapped out with how he’s going to destroy every song he’s working on. Beasted 2/3 songs per hour over insane beats from producers I can’t talk about yet! After that I had to go help Chance with his growing home studio and pick up a new file to mix back here at Truth.
Couldn’t be more excited about creating music with these guys, they’ve been very inspiring throughout my career in music and more importantly as a fan of music. I continue to say it every time I mention Blu but his album was such a pivotal point to my career and the music I listen to. Asher has always stuck out being such a talented word smith and now more than ever is tapping into a newfound sound I am obsessing over. Must give credit to JP and Rich from Blended Babies as well for the music they’re putting together, it’s very special.
Chance has shown serious interest to learn how studio equipment works, how DAWs work and how to record himself so I’m very happy to share knowledge. Working on new features I can’t talk about yet but great things are on the way.
New Vinyl Alert! Gift from Blu today.
