Music in may genres, in blended genres, in contrasting and in complimentary genres. I compete terribly with myself each new song needing to have more perfect lyrics, a better beat than all prior, more emotion, a stronger message, better harmonies, slicker rhymes, even right down to better album cover artwork. But the greatest reward is in seeing people truly resonate and connect with my music and see how people use my songs to express their creativity in videos or reels they post on social media

My inspiration is perpetually inspired by emotions, mine or someone else’s. Pain inspires me to write slow soft ballads in country, pop, or contemporary christian. Loss brings out the blues or folk in me. Anger becomes a gritty gangsta rap song, or a rock mix of sorts. Frustration with injustice becomes a dirty south/outlaw country tune. Happiness can lead to an upbeat hiphop song or contemporary christian, maybe even a fun rap with fire spun rhymes. Sensuality is always a smooth R&B piece.

I would use $25000 to build an outdoor community stage for inspiring young artists and create a family friendly atmosphere for an audience paying minimum donations of $5 each or $10 per family, with 70% being paidd to the artists to help fund the cost of pursuing their art, and the other 30% used for stage maintenance and associated fees. I would gather a group of artists of different types to each donate one 2 hour session per week to teach/guide/mentor the young artists in the same art field
