 New York, NY (Top40 Charts/ N-O) - When I decided to record songs for my new album entitled 'The Underdog', I wanted it to be different from my last album. So I challenged myself to find great music and write wonderful songs that represent everyday people. When the songs for the album were written, I went on a search to find the best tracks for the album and went to the recording studio after finding four tracks for the album. It felt good going back into the studio because being in the recording studio always feels like home to me. The recording studio is the place where I feel comfortable and happy. There was no problems when I step in the recording booth and put on the headphones. However, the problems started when my vocals were recording on the beats I selected. The beat was soft and smooth while my voice tone was hard. The tone of my voice didn't match the vibe of the song. My voice tone was perfect for the songs on my last album. However, it doesn't fit the songs for my new album. I'm getting frustrated while I'm trying to find the correct tone of voice to match the radio friendly songs on the album. The Struggle: It's easy for me match my voice on hard beats. However, I struggle on beats that need a smooth or soft tone of voice. The struggles with my tone of voice on radio records has me questioning myself because I cannot release an album without radio and club friendly songs. I'm trying different things to make the songs better. However, I'm just hitting a brick wall. Note To All Recording Artists: Changing the way you sound from song to song is easier said than done. However, we owe it to all music fans to be different from record to record. We have to step out of our comfort zone and give the world great music.
