check_circleVerifiedDope to work with BRYAN. Overall a quick turnaround and a very talented brotha. I was actually surprised I didn’t have any feedback, corrections or suggestions after he delivered what he delivered. That like almost never happens! He brought my lyrics to life and also contributed some of his own, and I can’t wait until this one is released. He gave me just what I envisioned (and more) for my afrobeats inspired record.
Love, Peace & Light

A: I was the songwriter for a song by a producer from Australia. It was an afrobeat song and very easy-going. I'm really proud of that song because the vocals I recorded and the lyrics I wrote to the beat complimented it so well it sounded so close to being finished and it was even mixed yet.
