Stop Waiting!
I see so many music creatives waiting:
Yet, the best chance we have for success in the industry is to consistently master our craft, collaborate, expand our network, and pool our resources. Life is short, The world needs to hear your music. Stop waiting!
I was 45 years old when I started writing songs. I didn't have any connections in the industry and like many new music creatives, I was spending way too much money getting my songs produced, mixed, and mastered. Also, it was very difficult getting artists to sing and release my music, even if they liked the songs. Now at 52, I've learned how to produce and consistently release music with artists and other collaborators (half my age). We're always creating new music where you could have the opportunity to participate. We work in a variety of genres including R&B, Hip Hop, Pop, Country, Inspirational, and more. Many creatives make the mistake of waiting and holding out for some super producer or famous artist to discover them, but the key to success is consistent collaboration with those who are within reach.
*Here are examples of my work where I contributed to these projects in various capacities: producer/co-producer and/or songwriter.
