UNDERDOGG

This is my attempt to start blogging again. My last post was 15 months ago. I was working on a record called "effort."; it was to be a stripped down, quirky pop-rock record. Like most things I do, I got a little over halfway done with it, then did a 180 and started working on my lifelong dream of making a rap album.

Anyone who truly knows me knows me that this wasn't really that much of a 180. Not because I've been a lifelong diehard hip hop fan or anything, but because of the way rap music at its best is way more conducive to my favorite things: plays on words, comedic writing, satire, extremely personal narrative and electronic beats; all things I've been obsessed with for my entire life.

So I'm probably about 3/4 done with my upcoming ep, "UNDERDOGG". The fact that I'm this far along and still totally stoked on this project is probably a good sign. Anyway, I hope to post more updates, demos, and thoughts on this blog, as well as an essay or two about the ep and its title.
