Abstract
Production is the reason I got into music, and it remains at the core of everything I make. My goal with this project was to create something minimal yet emotionally expansive—drawing from artists like Frank Ocean, Brent Faiyaz, and Kanye West, who blur the lines between rapping and singing. The album explores themes of looking ahead, personal growth, and reflection, across six tracks including an interlude that showcase my artistic range. My sound—what some listeners at my recent listening party called “OCD stadium music”—is defined by melancholic textures, rich low-end, off-the-grid drums, and cello. I aim for raw honesty in my lyrics, often reflecting on past experiences to better understand who I am now. Vocal production is a key part of my sound, with recurring techniques like stacked, choir-like ad-libs helping build a cinematic atmosphere. Visually, I’m intentional about aesthetic cohesion. My main color palette of green and purple was carefully chosen to reflect the emotional tone of the project. From the cover art to the listening party poster, every visual element was designed to mirror the sonic world I created.
