6 in 13
What a run i've been having lately!! I havent been blogging much at all lately, which is too bad, i like to do it, but it might give you some insight into just how busy i am right now. complete craziness! First a NOTAR project update. The album is coming together beautifully. I am so proud to be a part of it (I'm producing, mixing, writing, performing, etc...). Most of the production is done, and I'm now finished with 5 songs, mixes and all. I feel like a Matador. I cant wait to let people start hearing the album, SO GOOD!!!!!
So....6 in 13. yep. I've worked on six #1 Albums in the last 13 months. Holy CRAP!!! I'm pretty happy about that. Not sure if there's ever been a 13 month stretch of my career that i could say that about. Though there have been 2 different times where i worked on 3 of the Top Ten Billboard albums. Thats a pretty crazy feeling as well. Anyway, this current run includes Danity Kane, Day 26, Young Jeezy, Kanye West, Notorious Soundtrack, and NOW Vol. 30.
Alas, (i said it, alas) i have more big news on the horizon. don't wanna jinx it. So much good stuff happening right now. I really feel like the planets are beginning to align and much of what i've worked so hard for the last several years laying the groundwork for is beginning to come to fruition.
Oh, one of those things, that is current public knowledge is 15 year old Ariana Grande. I produced four songs for her late last year. She is utterly awe inspiring to watch perform and to hear sing. Like a young Christina Aguilaria who can also act. Ariana finished a run on Broadway in January and then went out to LA. She was recently cast in an as yet to be titled Nickelodeon series that i think comes out in August. The show will make a pilot run of six episodes (i could be making that up, not sure) and hopefully (probably) the show will get picked up for a full season. She's also currently negotiating a contract with a major label, and if that label has any sense they will sign her in a heartbeat. No worries though, if that label doesnt sign her, she's already got significant other interest from other majors. This girl is on her way and its no surprise to me, she's gifted, driven, and has a great support network. I'm glad I'm a part of it.
OK, now I've REALLY got to get back to the mix currently on my console. another great song, and I'm inspired.
