How I became a step away from the music industry.

Splurge on Garb
Nov 5 · 2 min read

Who is Splurge, well I can tell you that I started all of this at the age of 5. Around that time was were my passion for music came to life. Singing and belting out to my family plus friends was where I started. Approaching the age of 10 I took my music ventures to the next level joining the Maryland States Boys Choir.

This was a many dreams come true to me as we traveled from church to church, state to state. Singing and team building at all the summer camps. The only other thing I was active with in the middle school was the band where I landed in seats 1–5 on the A team of course. But the love of hip hop was born around this time which was greater than all the activities even football, yes I played football too.

Beginning on Fruity Loops 6 is where I gained the opportunity to attend the best fine arts school in Maryland. Gorge Washington Carver for Arts and Technology as a vocal prime student. I literally trained my voice, made samples, and just had fun.

Never the less reality smacked me in the face everyday because I’m 20 years older stuck in college wanting to get out and make music as a living. This was a total struggle for me because I didn’t have that manager or mentor to show me the ins and outs of the industry, I had to learn on my own. So I took a leap of faith.

I so called upped and moved to NYC, no money, beats and family to rely on. Chasing mu dream huh… literally couldn’t have done any worst. Be despite all the negatives I landed meetings with 300 ent, Def Jam, and Alamo records. Pushing so much traffic to the point where I was going to networking events everyday to build a coherent email list.

As many as 50 placements down and still noting to really show for it I really thought my break would come through. That was not alive at all only a dream in the dust. Coming home on such a high had me realize that the best thing happening was being in contact with these music industry factors.

But there is a better plan for me and that’s why I’m here today to tel you that I’m seeking new Artist to work with young and hungry like me if anyone can relate to this messages and my story follow through here!
