Prior to sessions, whether it's a bus, plane, or train, I always like to do things on the way there to get my mind right. It's normally a sermon, a book, some music, or even watching videos on my phone. Anything to keep my spirit calm and my energy right before I pick up a pen or press record...I don't really get nervous anymore, but I used to suffer from really bad anxiety when I was younger. Anyone who knows how that feels, knows that it isn't fun at all...I learned later that anxiety is nothing more than FEAR (of something). And we all feel fear. Most of our biggest fears is the fear of the UNKNOWN...The what-ifs we create in our heads before something happens. That's why it's important we live in the PRESENT. Each session, each studio, each city I go to, each artist, and each producer is different! if I'm relaxed, prepared, and not in a rush though...it always feels better and goes smoother. 👌🏽🎯#dopaminedreamz #igivegameforfree #doyourhomework #arriveearly #getsomesleep #eatgood #FEELgreat #BEgreat #DOgreat

In here creating with @trapmorg...🔥 Sidebar: People ask me where I work, and I always tell them I do 80% of my work at home. When you know what you doing with what you got, you can record from anywhere nowadays. Those sessions are only reserved for special folk though 😬 Don't be fooled by them long mixing boards...They ain't turning most of them knobs most of the time lol 💯...Leave that to the mixing engineers. #dopaminedreamz #morganb #twenty20ent #igivegameforfree

People always wanna come to the studio to "hang out", but this is NOT FUN all the time. I'm tired as hell (mentally and physically). Been listening to the same song over and over for the past 7 hours mixing and recording. My ears burnt out! My hair look crazy...I got bags under my eyes! 😂 smh. I ain't complaining but I WORKED today....AndI never made it to the gym smh. This is the part people don't show you or talk about. Today was a good day though.

Especially with how fast things move nowadays...#dopaminedreamz #igivegameforfree #mastermind #quarterback

And if they do, a lot of times their pages are private or they post nothing about what they do...The point is: to each his own, but please focus on the work and not the fluff. Cuz the work will last way longer than the hype will...It's not about who's the loudest, but it's about who works the hardest and the smartest, and whose phonebook is the longest. Who can you call for a favor when you need one? The size of your favor depends on the value of the people you have relationships with 🎯 #dopaminedreamz #igivegameforfree #musicindustry101

And that includes social media too. You can be rich, and will go broke trying to keep up with the Joneses today. Be strategic about every decision you make to promote yourself...#dopaminedreamz #igivegameforfree #strategy

When I first began songwriting about 12 years ago I was not propitious. I was always good with words and melody as a rapper but I had to learn other basics/principles as a songwriter of other genres like song structure, how to build a song by the time the bridge came around, knowing when to take words out to let the song breathe (which is hard for a rapper that is good with lyrics)...things like that. I learned over time to get in where I fit in when collaborating though, and that EVERYBODY has something to bring to the table. I may come up with the melody, you may come up with the concept, we may go back and forth on lines but it's ALL important. I don't like when I hear people co-wrote a song and one person tries to act like they own the whole thing! I don't even care if u wrote the hook...the whole body of work wouldn't be what it was without EVERYBODY. Learn to be PROPITIOUS when working with other people. My uncle @cbm4th said "Art is a living breathing thing that evolves..." You can't force it/stifle it. Let it be what it is....I can hold my own, but I LOVE working in teams! You get waaaay more done in less time if everybody trusts one another and is on the same page. Leave your ego in the car...matter of fact, leave it at home...better yet, bury it! Teamwork makes the dream work! Let's get this 💸💰💵 #dopaminedreamz #twenty20ent #propitious #teamwork #igivegameforfree #musicindustry101

Minus all the headaches and unnecessary expectations people put on themselves because of how they present themselves to the world and how they feel people "think" about them...Protect your peace of mind and your freedom. You don't always have to let the right hand know what the left hand is doing. If you're secure with yourself, you won't feel the need to prove yourself 24/7. Talent and results ALWAYS speak louder than empty boasts anyway. #dopaminedreamz #igivegameforfree #keepsleeping #creamrisestothetop #greatnesscutsthrough #twenty20ent
