Interview with Mainetain

  1. Q: Tell us about a project you worked on you are especially proud of and why. What was your role?

  2. A: I helped an indie artist create their debut single by writing the hook, recording a feature verse, and assisting with vocal arrangement. That song landed them their first radio play — that’s a win we both shared.

  3. Q: What are you working on at the moment?

  4. A: I’m working on a new EP and several client projects — including custom verses, hooks, and feature vocals. Always keeping the pen moving.

  5. Q: Is there anyone on SoundBetter you know and would recommend to your clients?

  6. A: Not yet, but I’m always looking to build a network of solid engineers, producers, and vocalists. Open to collaborations.

  7. Q: Analog or digital and why?

  8. A: Digital — the flexibility and workflow speed let me focus on creativity. That said, I love analog-style plug-ins for warmth and character.

  9. Q: What's your 'promise' to your clients?

  10. A: I deliver clean, high-quality vocals and lyrics that fit your vision — with a fast turnaround and unlimited revisions until you’re satisfied.

  11. Q: What do you like most about your job?

  12. A: Turning thoughts and emotions into music that moves people. There’s nothing like hearing someone say, “That line hit me hard” or “You made my song come to life.”

  13. Q: What questions do customers most commonly ask you? What's your answer?

  14. A: Q: Can you match my vibe or sound? A: Absolutely. I take time to understand your tone, style, and goals before writing or recording anything. Whether you need something melodic, gritty, emotional, or hype — I adjust my delivery and writing to match your vision exactly. Q: How fast can you deliver?** A: Most projects are done within 2–3 days, sometimes faster. If you need a rush turnaround, just let me know — I can usually make it happen. Q: Do you do revisions? A: Yes, I include **free revisions** because I want you to be fully happy with the final product. Your satisfaction is the priority. Q: Can I hear some examples of your work? A: Definitely — I have samples of verses, hooks, and full songs in different styles. Just ask, and I’ll send over what fits the vibe you're looking for.

  15. Q: What's the biggest misconception about what you do?

  16. A: That rap is just rhyming words. It’s really about storytelling, rhythm, emotion, and creating a mood that connects with the listener.

  17. Q: What questions do you ask prospective clients?

  18. A: What’s the theme or mood of the track? Do you have reference songs or artists? Do you want something melodic, aggressive, chill, or emotional? What’s your deadline?

  19. Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?

  20. A: Look for someone who listens first and delivers with clarity. Chemistry matters. Make sure the artist understands your sound, goals, and vibe before you book.

  21. Q: If you were on a desert island and could take just 5 pieces of gear, what would they be?

  22. A: MacBook with Logic Pro X Apollo Twin Interface Neumann TLM 103 mic A MIDI keyboard A pair of studio headphones

  23. Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?

  24. A: I started writing at 13 and recording at 16. Over the years, I’ve built my own studio, worked with independent artists, and developed a catalog of original music. I’ve been doing this professionally for over 5 years now.

  25. Q: How would you describe your style?

  26. A: Smooth but gritty. Street-smart with emotional depth. I blend conscious bars with melodic hooks — think a mix of pain, hustle, and soul.

  27. Q: Which artist would you like to work with and why?

  28. A: I’d love to work with J. Cole — he blends raw talent with wisdom, and I respect how he stays true to himself while evolving sonically.

  29. Q: Can you share one music production tip?

  30. A: Don’t overcrowd the beat. Let the vocal breathe. Simplicity and space create emotion — it’s not always about how many sounds are in the mix, but how they complement the voice.

  31. Q: What type of music do you usually work on?

  32. A: Hip-hop, rap, trap, R&B, and drill — but I’m open to anything with a strong vibe and message.

  33. Q: What's your strongest skill?

  34. A: Writing catchy, meaningful lyrics and delivering them with energy and emotion. I also bring structure and creativity to songs to make them memorable and replay-worthy.

  35. Q: What do you bring to a song?

  36. A: Authenticity, confidence, and a strong ear for melody and rhythm. My verses come with passion and clarity — I know how to deliver lines that hit hard and connect emotionally.

  37. Q: What's your typical work process?

  38. A: Once I get a beat or concept, I dive into writing lyrics that match the emotion and message. I record multiple takes for delivery options, then comp, mix, and tune the vocals if needed. I communicate clearly with my client to make sure they’re 100% happy.

  39. Q: Tell us about your studio setup.

  40. A: I record using a professional home studio setup that includes a treated vocal booth, Audio-Technica or Neumann mic, Apollo Twin interface, and I mix in Pro Tools or Logic Pro X with Waves and FabFilter plug-ins.

  41. Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?

  42. A: I’m inspired by greats like J. Cole for storytelling, 50 Cent for melody and confidence, Drake for versatility, and producers like Timbaland and Hit-Boy for their innovative beats.

  43. Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.

  44. A: I help artists bring their visions to life by writing and recording custom rap verses, hooks, and full songs. Whether it's a feature verse, theme-based song, or top-line melody, I deliver polished vocals with strong lyrical content and emotion.
