Entry 3

I guess my talent of lack of talents is which made me intresteted in my topic. Growing up in a sports oriented family there was alot of pressure for me to play sports, but every sport i tried never worked out for me. I grew up around music my mother is a singer so I always loved to hear her sing or different singers sing. Thats when I first began to love music like R&B , Soul and Pop music. When my mother married my stepfather things changed he was big into sports and hip-hop thats where I began to love hip-hop and rap music. I played every sport Basketball, Baseball, Soccer etc. Nothing ever worked out though I would always gravitate towards the music that surrounded me. When I started skateboarding I began to hang around the skateboard crowd which listened to rock and I began to like rock and developed a love for wanting to explore different cultures. In a way my culture influenced my topic on music because my culture is mainly sports and hip-hop but my desire for me to always be diverse made me want to venture out in the music world and want to be a producer because I know what type of music I like and I believe I can make something that will stand out from other producers which should make me successsful in the music business. My favorite producers are The Neptunes who have made music for artists such as Brittney Spears, Jay-Z, Beyonce and alot of other artists their sound is different from others which has made them successful and inspired me to become a producer.
