The thing I love about these songs is that although I used poetic license, I'd say 95-98% of these songs were written from true events. Probably the only song that has a fictional spin to it is "Can You Say It" which is the opening intro. Songs like "Infatuated" and "4am" are songs that I have lived through and experienced. A few people have already heard the EP and have asked if I wrote all the songs. I did, indeed, write every song on the project. Some people are just now finding out about my talent, but it's something I've been working on and developing for absolutely years. None of this has happened overnight. I hate talking and writing about myself, cause I feel like I'm bragging.
But the whole concept behind this EP is simple: in my past music listening experiences, I've noticed that interludes are some of people's favorite songs. You run them back over and over because they just don't seem long enough. I figured I'd do the same. This EP, in my opinion, gives people just enough without giving too much and it acts as a trial run as to whether or not music should be a real live avenue for me. I guess we'll have to see. For the most part, I'm happy at how everything has turned out. The order of the songs just seemed to fall into place, the timing, the tracks, everything. I hope you enjoy listening as much as I enjoyed creating.
