 New York, NY (Top40 Charts/ Underdog Official Website) - When I told people my dream of making music, they all laughed at me and said that I would never make it. I did not have any money or any connections in the music industry. I was discouraged by the negative comments while they laughed at me. I was left with one decision to make, should I listen to negative comments and give up my dream of making music or use the negative comments as the fuel to drive me to succeed. I decided to use the negative comments to drive my musical career. I spent several years writing to instrumental songs by major label artists before mix tapes became popular by recording artists like 50 Cent and Lil Wayne. The songs I created were never published because I did not have enough money for the cheapest studio in my town. It took me two years to save up enough money to record a demo cd of three songs. I took my demo to twenty five record labels and they laughed at me. They said that I would never make it in the music industry. I used the negative comments from the record labels as fuel to drive me to make music. When I recording and released my first album, all the people who laughed at me before did not laugh anymore. When I started working on my new album, A&R's from the same record labels that laugh at me before are contacting me. Note To All Recording Artists: People will laugh at your dream. However, that is not a reason for you to give up on your dream. Never let people stop you from chasing your dream to make music.
