(01:23):
We gotta like rock nuts, butI'm not rock I'm not doing I'm not

I like that, you know,and the uh moveless of your voice on
this one, I would say personallyyour best. Thank you. I put
(02:07):
all my heart to this on thissong, and you can feel it.
You can feel it like you werelike there was parts of it like you
were emotionaling it. So I waslike, oh, okay, you can
feel the actual voice. So youknow that is good. Thank you.
I appreciate it. And I justreally have a big shout out, big
shout out to mister Penia who's theengineer for this song and he put a
lot of work to it. Andthis actually was on Victory album a couple
(02:30):
of years back. I did itduring the COVID situation, right and when
this came out. I am justa quick backstory about this song. You
know, I don't do this kindof music, gospel at all. I
usually do like your R and B, so all the types of genres.
And when this, like I mentionedit, what the announcement? I said?
You know, God really did useme that day. I was sitting
(02:50):
in my no lie to you,Charles. I was sitting in my room
and it was, you know,a couple of beats on YouTube, you
know, stuff like just getting mymood to it, and this one beat
kept coming to me. Said hm, So you know, as an artist,
when you hear that beat like yougotta work on it. You gotta
work this for a reason, rightright. So I'm sitting down, I'm
hearing it and then I start.Usually how I do my storm writing.
I put a brainstorm sheet and Iput the words and I try to put
(03:13):
the rhyming, and then the nextsheet is abody to put the final one,
put the pieces together. Okay,see now you know my tricks don't
do that. Yeah, you knowhow does the song? It doesn't make
it hit? I got you.Now you know you need to do a
few things like that. I'm justturning you off. My ring. I
was like, wait a minute,I just realized I still had the ringer
on the phone. Yeah, butthere are certain things to do, and
(03:38):
that was one of the stuff Iwas gonna ask you, like, how
did you get into the zone?You know? And h question that I
asked songwriters that well, the onesthat write a whole lot of songs.
Yes, have you ever got blocked? And if so, how did you
get out of it? Okay,sus Aster the first one. I think
(03:59):
my prices process, for give me. I think it's different how I go
about it. Usually I try tobe at a closed place where there's no
distraction, my phone's off, Iput some instance you like his some candles
I get, you know, inthe mood as they say, uh,
and then I'll just like, ifI like a certain beat, I have
to make sure first before anything Ieither if I could buy it or at
least it, you know, makesure that I have to protect that song
(04:20):
before I start writing on it.Then I'll start in sort of like the
brainstorming process, and then into thehigh structure it. I'll feel the song,
the beat it gravitates to me,and then I'll just put everything into
a storyline and then pretty much therest is history. And now to the
other question you ask. I thinksometimes as a songwriter you also do get
(04:41):
rained, as it called brain hearts, right. It happens sometimes you want
to write something so great, butthen you're like, at that moment,
you just don't know what to writeabout, you know. And I think
sometimes when you do that as asongwriter, take a day or so on
the song, off on it,like, don't really stress it, wait
till the next couple of days,and they go back on it and then
say, okay, maybe I missedsomething I missed out on and they add
(05:03):
to it, you know, becausesometimes you just can't just write a song
one day and that's it it's agreat hit. No, you have to
go back and red stream, youknow, refix it, go back and
see what things may be added ortake out. Yeah, yeah, you
know, it's I think with anythingthat you do, if you feel frustrated
about it, take a breath,you know, we go and just you
(05:24):
know, move to the side anduh, like you said, come back
to it at a later time.Or because I always think maybe it wasn't
the right moment all the right time, because I know there's some songwriters that
pass away, you know, likebig, big, big people like Tupacing
all though, and all of asudden you see all these songs popping up.
Yeah, and it's because those arethe songs that they was like,
(05:45):
you know what, I'm gonna getback to it eventually, it's not the
right moment for it. So,you know, because I'm assuming that a
lot of the ones that really right, not the one that wrote one song
and that, yeah, but theones that really write a lot of songs,
I'm assuming they have a couple ofthem that they thought it was good
and then when they finished it waslike, nah, you know what,
I'm not gonna release this one,and then they have it on the side.
(06:08):
So there's probably songs like that,and then all of a sudden,
that one moment you're like, youknow what, I'm gonna take out this
song. I wrote this twenty yearsago, but I'm finally finally sing it.
I'm gonna finally perform it, youknow. So it happens like you
said, this was on the backburner and then he was like, you
know what, I'm actually gonna bringit out. Yeah, definitely, you
know, and you bring it outand that's that was with the good thing
(06:30):
about it and and then look whathappened. It all works out sometimes and
it's sure you say that, Charlesbecause of fact, Like a lot of
times when you do songwriting, sometimesyou think when you make that one song,
is it gonna be hit? Andsometimes it's not. It becomes a
flop. But then the it's like, for example, you do an album
EP or a full song album wecall it, and then you it's like
the one two songs and the albumare the ones that stand out the most.
(06:53):
I always say when I push outlike my work whatever you call it,
I went to the fans to seewhat they like. And if they
say, hey, you don't needto work on this and that, then
the next project all right, Iknow when they need to be fixed on
and they do one the next time. Oh yeah. I think everyone's album
besides Michael Jackson, but a lotof people's albums always have only one or
two good ones, you know whatI mean, Like you can't really be
(07:15):
like uh even like I said,like we just said, Tupac and all
of them. Uh you know,we can go down to Llo, cool
J, all these good artists andrappers and singers. If you ask someone
name all the songs on that album, they're gonna be like, uh,
which one exactly? You know,they don't even know two or three,
Like I said, That's why Isaid, Michael Jackson, because that the
Thriller album. They can probably gothrough the whole song and know every single
(07:39):
one. You know. Yeah,So, but it is true. There's
always two things. But the thingI like about you, like what you
said, whatever they say, I'mgonna grow with it. I'm I'm gonna
change, I'm gonna go this way, go that way, you know.
So it's it's always a good thing. And you know, for you guys
that are listening now, if youjust started listening, this is veryl G.
She's this year Gospel winner on theLDM, so you know, and
(08:03):
we're here and this is a realtalk, real music, uh and this
is the podcast for independent artists,uh only so you know, get to
know the person a little bit.And also burro g if they want to
know more intimate stuff about you,you gotta go check her out on behind
the Mic where she really speaks abouther life and you get to know who
(08:26):
she is as a person, notthe artist. So who you know there

good? Which is good? Uh? You know you can keep on going.
But uh, what is your nextsong that you're you're you're releasing now?
(08:46):
So besides uh this one which hasbeen our fort some time, I
just released a song which is verydear to me and it's called Gone Too
Soon, And briefly about that conceptof the song. Over a year ago,
I found out that I miscar readerand it was very traumatic to me
and I felt like I had totake time to heal for myself before anything
(09:07):
during that time. Now this yearwas over, actually this month, it
will be a year that he willif my child would have been in life,
you know, would have been ayear. So what I did was
to make a remembrance of him.I decided to make the song and the
big Shotterrailers Productions, who made theproduction of this amazing song. And when
I went to the boothfriend I didlike thing. And when I heard the
(09:28):
song between You Meet Charles, Icried. I cried because I was like
to hear the raw motions of myvocals and the beat was so beautifully like
everything was entwined to one and tohear the impact now as we speak,
no light to you guys. Ijust checked it. Within seven days it
got released. It has over onepoint six case streams on Spotify. How
(09:52):
you go? That is crazy andI'm like, whoa yeah, And actually
just a big shot out to GeminiSex. We did a docu film based
on that song and also my situation, my story, and it's out now
on my YouTube channel. You guyscould check that out on a vlog spot
like network. So this is likethe theme song of that yes the single
(10:13):
too yeah you gonta yeah pretty much. And let me tell you the people
we got from the docum film,A lot of people who been crying.
And a friend of mine who Iknow personally, I didn't knew this.
She saw much. She had amiscarriage and she was actually touching yes,
and she saw this and she saidit remind her of that situation, and
she said thank you for making thishappen. So I had just an honor
for this and then another project besidesthat, working on a few other collaborations
(10:37):
other artists and working on my fifthepman. We should be up this year
praying for that. Uh it's calledenergy and that has a lot of great
sounds up techno songs, dance musicand you know the r oh wow,
I gotta I gotta check that out. Did you put it into the Independent
but the for the gone to someone? Yeah, it's already on the docum
(11:01):
film. Yeah, okay, it'salready on the soundtrack and as we speak,
I will be submitting it to otherfilm festivals and see. Yeah,
because we had one of the uhwinners of the Independent documentary stuff oh nic
she did some puppets stuff and shewas showing the history of a latinas and
stuff. So it was pretty cool, and she came here to show how
(11:24):
the puppets were made. I couldn'tbelieve, Like, well I believe because
people don't know when you were editinga video, it's about a frame and
the frame is a photo. Yeah, let's say it can take thirty photos
to make one second. Is true? So you know as me that I
do special effects, like when Ido music videos, I do a lot
(11:46):
of special effects blowing up doing this, I gotta look frame to frame.
Yeah, and then if if Igot to cut that and bring another one,
it has to match. Yeah,so it's it's a lot and to
do a pup bit to move onarm and not even a second. You
gotta move it just a little bitso it can go free. And that's
(12:07):
why, like a lot of peopleand I do editing a lot for movies
and like stuff we do like filmsand two films that one called Daughters Love
that's out now that was also myGemini Stacks directed by him, and then
this one I work with jam Prime. With this one you hate like the
final touches of it. But letme tell you something, Charles editing is
excauls my French because let me tellyou, editing, it's so much work.
(12:31):
You gotta go back to, likeyou said, the frames, right,
you gotta go to okay, thesequence, where does the story tell?
How does it? You know?Develop? Then you gotta go back
into the sounds add to you know, there's certain scenes will stand out,
so a lot of people don't reallyknow. But filmmaking, it's a lot
of work. Yeah, and thenthe background music and you can have a
(12:52):
good scene and the background music isno good. If it's crappy, yeah,
it won't make the movie that iscoming with the night and you have
this like whoa wait wait, thisis the that's why the movie, the
tense of it of a horror movieis a song. Yeah, you know,
even Jaws, which has the mosticonic you're like, oh ye,
(13:20):
like so it all plays part ofit. So that's what does a good
thing about it. But check itout Gone too Soon. Uh that's a
new single as well. But checkout the videos as well. So uh,
the Spotify everything is on it.But you know, hopefully you'll be
(13:41):
