You write music, sing, creative
direct your shows and write the
treatments for your music videos
- a 21st century Renaissance Man
- would you say you like to be in
control or is this something that
just grew from following your
dream, or a little of both?
I like to do things on my own terms concerning my
profession. I am a kid of the ‘80s so I have seen
how record companies have mislead many artist’s
careers with wrong music choices, album direction,
image, campaign, etc…And I said to myself if I ever
do anything like this, I will make sure that it’s on
my own terms.
The fact that I studied Direction help me
understand what I wanted and how I wanted it. So
I’d rather have my hands on everything, and I do.
And now a days with tools like YouTube, iTunes,
Facebook, Instagram etc…it’s easier to control the
direction of your career. You don’t need a record
company to work on your development, which
actually they don’t do anymore, you can do it
yourself.
