Tell us about a challenge you faced during production and how you overcame it.
One thing about being a new DIY independent artist is that every project has a faced challenge. But a big challenge I had to over come was when I was recording in the car in the middle of summer (IN SOUTH FLORIDA) windows up no AC. Using BandLab on my phone and wired earbuds as a mic. So With that being a challenge in itself one of the biggest challenges was “how can i get this to sound like it came from a studio?” And the answer was Build your own home studio and get the right equipment and that’s what I did.
If you could collaborate with any artist, who would it be and why?
Ouu this hard there is so many but I’ll say right now today Toosii. I fell like we will balance well. the flow, the sound, just feel like it would be a good complimentary combo.
