Co-produced track 7, Light My Fire ft. @jesseboykins3rd & @braxton_cook , off of @moruf88 ’s latest offering MOOLODIC: Hotep Luxury, the album. Good things take time, they say, and I’m incredibly grateful to see the magic we made heard & experienced by the world. Massive shouts to @joshuakissi for the link, @moruf88 for having a great pair of ears and words that cut through to the soul, and @jesseboykins3rd for elevating some of the initial ideas on this track. Go run dat 🤲🏾

“Don’t delete the voice notes”, they said. Begrudgingly, I listened, and yet it’s proven to be such great advice. Here’s a look back at the exact moment I nailed the melody / vocals for @andymadjitey & @kojoaffedzie ’s HOLY MERCURY short, beckoning at @obedworld in excitement. Singing remains an incredibly raw and vulnerable thing for me, but here’s to sharing more 🌀

trifecta [DEMO] - nü.migrations., 2024

JUNO [demo]

There’s music I’ve made that has a cinematic quality at times, accompanied by a scene or visual in my mind’s eye. As a result, I enjoy the challenge that comes with composing music to amplify underlying emotions in visual projects I’m excited to work on. I had the pleasure of scoring @amartei_armar ’s Vagabonds (2019), writing and arranging the score in each video insert. It’s a story of a Ghanaian orphan, whose life is turned upside down when he finds out his younger brother has been selected for adoption by an American family. It’s a moving 15-minute watch that eventually became Ghana’s first film on Emirates In-Flight Entertainment. Insert 1: Owusu is woken up in the middle of the night by his younger brother because he needs help going to pee. Sounds easy, no? The catch here is that they need to steal the key from the sleeping security guard in order to go outside. Insert 2: Owusu is about to ‘steal’ his own brother out of the orphanage to keep him from being adopted by an American family. Insert 3: Owusu asks his younger brother if he trusts him to take care of him, after they’ve successfully stolen out of the orphanage. Full film credits up on IMDB, and see link in bio to stream the film online.

only a matter of time — [insert long caption about finding yourself again - whatever that means, and rediscovering first loves.] @nu.migrations is a project I’m embarking on to exhume a part of me I’ve long buried in layers of many unhelpful things. consider it a “lesson in unfettered expression”, with ‘only a matter of time’, a two-song pack of unreleased music out now on SoundCloud. see link in bio for more, and come hear @nu.migrations ’ first set, during soft landing tomorrow at @palmmoments 🙇🏾‍♂️

In a series of very preventable mishaps, I lost everything I’ve been working on for *years*. I could tell myself all I need to have the right shift in perspective, but I’m absolutely gutted, if I can be honest. There’s a lesson here about not being too precious about ideas I have, shipping work as is, and not being a perfectionist, but it’s the loss of contributions and input from people who cared about me, enough to will me into working on an album that I was too scared to work on, that’s the killer. I don’t know if I have it in me to do it all over, but I’m putting this out here as a gentle reminder to myself to keep trying and to share what I can, more. The audio insert is and will remain one of my absolute favourites off the album that now will never be 🖤 @obedworld on keys and additional production.
