Update on my album

Good news, good news, and more good news, my album is coming along very nicely. Right now I am trying to improve on my lyric writing. I am pretty good at music theory, guitar, and singing.

            Not to say that I couldn’t use some improvement with singing, guitar, or music theory. However, I do feel very comfortable with the skills that I have towards my music.

Let’s talk about this album for a little bit.

I love the lyrics that I’m producing

            My lyrics are including a lot more imagery and rhyme in it since last year. I know that last year I didn’t release an album, but with God’s help, I will release one this year.

            However, in a sense, I see why God didn’t let me release an album last year. Last year, my music sounded good, but the lyrics were amateur at best. It looked like someone new to the industry was trying to write it.

            Even though I am new to the industry, it still makes sense to me that I should spend some more time songwriting first and then go out and try and chase after the dreams.

            I guess having all your ducks in a row should be the moral of the story.

Something else happened too

            So, there’s another reason as to why I think it was best that I didn’t release my music last year. Last year, I was trying to sing with the same voice that I had back in high school. However, my voice has deepened since high school.

            My voice is actually deeper now and I can’t sing those same high notes that I used to sing.

            I’ve always been a baritone, but now I think that I’m a bass one. I don’t know. I can still sing some tenor 2 songs but that’s a little more difficult for me.

            Anyways, last year when I was singing, I thought that I heard myself just fine, but in reality, I was singing so horribly! I heard a recording of myself last year and I was like, WOW! Did I sing that bad?! Haha! Anyways, that’s in the past and I’m ready to move on to the future.

            I am singing now as if though I was a bass. I heard myself the other day and there are some minor things that I need to work on, primarily diction and breath control, but it actually sounds really good.

There was one last thing that happened as well.

            I think I had a little more maturing to do with my Christianity before I could fully commit to being a Christian musician.

            I remember last year, I was praying day after day and reading the bible sometimes, however, I was not going to church. I wasn’t going to church and that is a big no in knowing Jesus.

            I started to go to church last year again and it hasn’t stopped. Of course for those occasional things that happen that I am not able to attend. But I am going to church faithfully.

Last year, something stopped me from being the person that I wanted to be

            Last year, an act of God happened that didn’t let me grow my blog to it’s full potential. If my blog had grown to it’s full potential, I would have released complete garbage to my audience and that would have been bad.

            There’s always a reason as to why things happen, I believe that, that is my reason as to why things didn’t happen the way that they should have. My Lord was there to save the day in the manner that was appropriate. I now know to trust in the Lord more.

I know I keep saying this

            I know that I keep saying this, but I have to learn to trust in the Lord more. I have this thing in my heart that I need the right resources in order to make the best album, however, that’s not the way that God wanted things.

            God wants us to do things in a humble manner. Start off small and work your way to the bigger things in life, that’s the way that God wants things.

            So what happened is this, I didn’t know how I could make an album if I didn’t have a producer or a mixing engineer or a group of songwriters to help me write songs, but that’s not how that works. If you can write music on your own, then you can write music with other people.

            I trust that God is the one who is preparing me for big things.

Broadcast

            If you guys want to know more about God, or if you want to go to heaven, then ask away about these things! Go ahead! I wouldn’t mind answering any questions that you have about God. God loves and God loves you.
