Story

I am a 25 year old kid who has spent most of my life trying to find something I am passionate about, only to find out it's been there the whole time. I love music, the creation of it, the construction, work, and formation of music. I love how something you would never see working, becoming the next best thing. I aspire to be a music producer/ songwriter/ lyricist. Feel free to ask questions.

What is music to you? What does it give you?

Music is who I and what I love. I love seeing the creation, imagination, and poetry behind the music. I feel strongly that music is something people should enjoy and appreciate for a long time. I hope to make music my goals in life to build strong relationships with fellow artists and take pride in my work as I grow older.

What is your music dream?

To become a renowned Music Producer

If you could change the world - what would you start with?

More support from people for their loved ones to chase their dreams. Too many people are told that reality hurts and they won't make it instead of giving them the chance to try.

Which is the most memorable song from your childhood?

Oh man theres so many. Being raised in the 90s and early 2000s, Id have to say multiple artists paved my way from Backstreet Boys, Nirvana, N*Sync, Blink 182, Eminem, Dr.Dre, Pearl Jam, and pretty much the list goes on lol. I was a total radio head and MTV Music Videos fanatic.

Who are your favorite musical artists or bands?

Just take a look at the last question lol. Here's a list at the top of my head now: J.Cole Kendrick Lamar Eminem Dr. Dre Nirvana Pearl Jam Disturbed Hopsin The Jokerr and again list goes on.

What inspires you to make music?

The imagination and creativity of it. The story telling, lyrical clues, hidden meanings in songs make my skin crawl with excitement when I hear it.

What is the message you want to send with your music?

Inspire young people to chase their dreams, to be more than "stuck in a rut," to love themselves and learn what is it that gives them that spark, that adrenaline rush.

How do you feel when you perform in front of an audience?

Excited and nervous. I feel good seeing all the happy, smiling faces as well as the criticizing, speculating faces. Makes me want to prove myself even more.

How do you see the musicians’ reality nowadays? What could be improved?

I feel musicians sometimes focus too much on materialistic things such as fancy houses or fancy cars. Dont get me wrong, I think nice things are just that, nice, but should not control your music. Music should be exactly what makes you who you are, should explain the kind of person you are through music, lyrics, and paint a picture for people listening to how you're feeling making it.

What do you think of Drooble?

I so far really enjoy it and am a fan of the people on it. i like that I FINALLY have others I can chat with about my passion. Its hard explaining your love for something to others who don't understand that love.

What frustrates you most as a musician?

Seeing people taking music and making it an easy paycheck. Seeing "artists" who make music that insults all musicians with non sensical lyrics, and can barely say a word on the song but because they have a good producer, they make money off it. That frustrates me because there's such better and more deserving talent out there.

Do you support your local scene as a fan? How?

So far, I have not but I will. I am going to find local venues to see future stars, reach out to fellow producers or songwriters to share ideas and experiences with, and continue working to make a name for the scene.

What qualities should a musician nowadays have in order to get their music heard by a larger audience?

Definitely being sociable, engaging with fans every once in a while to show love and they can share that with others to check out your work. Hard work and Dedication, having the will to keep producing, through the good and bad times. Honesty, being true to your work, dont brag about stuff you dont have or act like someone your not. Love, love for the music as well as love for the fans as well.
