The future of music is here. Influence by life, love, lust, and a serial "lay-a-way lover," This Rock-It Scientist formulates the lyrics and music that many can relate to. The discovery of his lyrical fixation came one summer in 1994, the greatest year of his life when he acquainted a new love in his life; music. "I can remember sitting in my living room where my stereo set was at, and heard the sweet sound of "Ribbon in the sky" and discovering a feeling I never felt before. What gave me the idea to write music was the fact that I started to develop crushes on girls at school and at church and needed a way to communicate to them. I was pretty good with words and decided to get intimate with my new love of music and just wrote what I was feeling for these girls or an interaction I had with them, and the rest was my story."
The girls didn't stay around but the songs did and being in New York City, inspiration was limitless especially when you date a lot. Close to the end of high school I met a fellow musician through the step team, one of the activities I did in school and one question he asked help create a great music fusion that the world will enjoy soon, "Are you into music?" After that it was nothing but music from there. We wrote songs and and recorded as much as we could especially when we got this cool DAW recorder and workstation from Roland. Ghetto Rose that I came up with was inspired from Tupacs poetry book, my partner did the music and we when from there.
Simon Cowell must have been spying through our window because we were the first ones to come up with the original American Idol. We needed singers for our songs which we wanted to develop so we use to video tape all our audition right in his living room. We got some crazy and some real good singers, did I mention we got some crazy singers? I moved to Massachusetts and decided to move back to New York City 6 months later because there was work to be done. We recorded Ghetto Rose and sent it to anyone we could to get it published. After that, we decided that we wanted to expand and started producing more and more. We got really into it that we started our own studio business in a friend and artist that we were working with house in Red Hook Brooklyn. The place was great until it was discover that the place could crumble any day. We have to move out and ended up in Hells Kitchen Manhattan in the Film Studio. Close to other studios like Daddy's House and Electric Lady. Started our own band which we created from scratch that was a mixture of rock, RnB, and Caribbean flavor. As we was moving forward set backs started to happen. Everything started to crumble like the building in Red Hook. Things got hard and I had to move back to Massachusetts, now in a depress state, I quit everything I ever enjoyed, even music but I couldn't stay away.
I decided I had to make the best of what I have and traded my big studio in NYC a home project studio. Started to hone my skills in production experimented with samples and original works, starting to get into managing artist, started a producer support group, starting a producer podcast to help up and coming producers, just trying to spread the knowledge. I believe it's my time now and I'm going full throttle to make it now. It's time to follow in the footsteps of The Neptune's, Kayne West, Timberland, Rick Rubin, etc. It's time to add my name to this elite list. I can't disrespect my music by not allowing the world to hear it, "musicogynist." It's time to blast off.
