Yo Yo when yall get a chance check out my beat tape "Fragments of Frequency" Produced, mixed and mastered by yours truly!!! Not a long listen check it out and support if yall can ... peace




check out my youtube page also



I'm going to check this out.

I always ask independent artists this question.

Factually, in real time from start to finish, mixed and album art did it take you to complete this project?

Amongst full time work it usually takes me two years to complete a hip hop album - 3 verses per track, 11 tracks. Roughly two hours in vested every week. Two real documented focused hours.

That's an insane turnaround and way too long. Something you recorded in 2025 may sound insanely dated why 2027. Two hours a week is probably why. I spend that recording a song factoring in rewriting, changing up flows, perfecting a flow, etc.

2 hours A WEEK to vested is insane. I fukk with you and some of your music. That's less than 10 mins every single day.

I enjoyed the theme (within the beats) they didn’t sound the same but had similar ingredients/made for a steady pace if that makes sense.

What about projects with ya boy, I can't recall his name at the moment but you two have great chemistry/have some fire joints

I hear you. I take time with my albums.

How old are you?

Do you have an album out to CD?

Can I hear your music?

Most independent artists I know who released an original album where they do a majority of the work themselves take 2 years. Even the ones I asked here.

I know a metal band that worked on an album for 9 years before they broke up. The lead singer overtook the project and its still not out. 11 years or so.

I used to drop an album every year from 20 to 28 consistently. On CD, sales, magazines etc.

But I saw that I made more money off my career outside of music and focusing on that it grew and I earned more money.

Still I've pretty much dropped an album every two years consistently.

It's because of consistent work over time. I'm proud of that. I'm no Atmosphere/ Rhymesayers but I've got my goals.
