The sound you exude in “Tsunami,” radiates in warmth and comfort. Could you please take us into what this track means to you as the creator and what you felt when creating it?


Tsunami is definitely a mood setter. I wrote it with that exactly in mind. What's funny is that one of the other inspirations of this track is my hair! I have a wavy hairstyle and that is pretty much my image and that went into consideration when crafting the words. What shifted this song into the smooth production that it came out to be is the guitar part that goes throughout the song. Once that was laid down I wanted to use a keyboard sound that just sounds like sex and orgasms and all that. I think once the track was finally mixed by my engineer I realized that this is something for the couples or whatever "situationship" the people got going on.

What are you hoping that listeners take away from the melismatic soundscape portrayed in “Tsunami”?


Definitely that my team and I are just a force when it comes to production and that I'm also a force when it comes to writing. I want people to hear the mood and atmosphere through the sounds of whatever instrument is playing throughout the track. I want people to hear that there is a purpose for the way the production is for each song. I also want people to be fully immersed into my music to mentally take them to the place where I was at when my team and I were producing it.

With this song being so intimate and prevailing, did you find that the creative process endured was similar or different to the approach you bring to other songs?


This arrangement and writing of this song came natural to me. In that case, I'd say it's sort of similar to the cultivation of my other songs. However, I'd say that I do elevate and build upon my previous works each time as an artist. So, it was similar in lyrical content but definitely different in production style.

What has been the biggest takeaway from the release process of “Tsunami”?


Plan, plan, plan. Plan about a month ahead. And before you plan, make sure you have everything ready to go as if you're going to release the song the next day. Listening to your audience and just being patient but at the same time assertive is super important.
