Speaker 4 (01:15):
Good, I'm doing great. I'm happy to to talk with
you again, guys, and I'm happy to present my my
my music with you. And last time when I was
in the on the l d M show, we were
(01:38):
I think that we were talking about my new release
right that I was about.
Speaker 2 (01:44):
Yeah, we were speaking about the new.
Speaker 4 (01:46):
One, thinking about that, right, and we were.
Speaker 2 (01:49):
Talking about what was it a sex appeal?
Speaker 4 (01:52):
The sex appeal, Yeah, we were talking about and then
I I I remember that uh that you were talking about.
Also the music video of sex Appeal, and yes, yes.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
If guys have not seen the music video or listen
to the song, go check it out. It's very uh appeeling.
I like the whole thing, and it's sex appeal. That's
the name of the of the thing, and that's how
it is a very good video. But the song itself
is great. So watching video or listen to the song
(02:30):
either or you would never be disappointed. So you know
that's a good thing.
Speaker 4 (02:35):
Yes, well, this song is more The song that I'm
that I just released is all Love Is a Rose.
The title is Love Is a Rose, and it's another
like gen kind of it's pop. It's still pop as
another vibe is more romantic.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
And yeah, because we're still trying to find out what
is the who's the song about? I remember we were
talking about it on.
Speaker 4 (03:06):
You were trying to find out.
Speaker 2 (03:09):
We were trying to find out. We still want to know.
Speaker 4 (03:11):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, but honestly, I was inspired by a
poem and the rest it's a bit like I don't know,
like adding some kind of like maybe personal stuff but
not it's not really inspired by like a romance that
(03:31):
I'm just having or something. No, it's not that that
I can say. No, well, I met my boyfriend and
then you know, I was inspired by our love story
that I know put it into words. Not I know,
it's not it's not like that, but it's just still honest.
It's just still sincere. I mean, I really am. It's
(03:55):
not so far away from me for from what I think, uh, well,
what I my experiences like related to love. But in
the let me tell you first, the the the poem
(04:15):
that I chose, it's called the Gift and is a
Mary Oliver's poem. And in this in this poem, uh,
she is like she's reflecting on the the the resilience,
(04:36):
the the on on on on love, you know, some
like the patience, uh is afection of maybe a mature love,
you know. So I think in that moment of my
life that that I wanted to to put out a
song that I'm talking about more like mature love, not
(05:02):
like a you know.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
So it was adult motions.
Speaker 1 (05:07):
Yes, it was a.
Speaker 4 (05:08):
Good Uh, it was a good rough material. Two two
to take off you know to to build the song
and the lyrics because Mary Oliver already has a lot
of power the words and and the spirit, you know,
(05:29):
so I just tried to be close to these also
the the the the song is called Love is a
Rose because Mary Oliver also has many poems that are
like related to the the nature. No, there are many
(05:50):
methods related to flowers, to animals and and I think
it's I don't know. I tried to really capture her
spirit somehow in a good way, you know, to to
pay ho much to that, and also adding my own
(06:11):
personal material, you know, but it's not really it's not
really based on any biographic biographical like you know, like
personal story of mine is no, no, like.
Speaker 2 (06:31):
I could, well, you say it's not personal. But since
you're basing it off of a poem that you felt,
you know, rever you strongly to, it seems a little personal.
Then it's it's from your heart, you know, because that's something.
Speaker 4 (06:48):
Yeah, it's from my heart, and it's from my sense,
like my my personal taste, you know, as far as poetry,
as far as I study, as far as even I
don't know, like like, yes, it is personal, is personal,
but it's not my own story like gys oh, so bring.
Speaker 2 (07:14):
Bring out the Latina in you. You know, the Latinos
are passionate, you know, and they love and roses. You
know why roses.
Speaker 4 (07:24):
Are we it's a gift that we offer to our lovers.
You know. That's why I wanted to because the original
the poem says it's it says the gift right and
for me a way to translate this in my personal
life if I want to, I mean, if you want
(07:49):
to steal my heart, if you you know, if if
you're a rose, yeah then I'm one hundred percent you
you you have me.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
You know, because rose can get you out of trouble
and they can get you into love. You know, if
you're in trouble, you get some roses and they maybe
forgive you.
Speaker 4 (08:11):
You know, well, I possibly will do it. Yeah, yeah,
I possibly would do it because for me, roses you know,
are very connected to also my childhood. My grandfather give
me roses every time that I visit them, and I
always relate like giving flowers to expressing love and you know,
(08:38):
so it's something that honestly, it's not something romantic like
silly or cheesy, you know, for me, not for me
be very genuine. And my grandfather had these roses in
his garden and I always show how much love and
(09:00):
care you know, he took care of those roses like
that that it was clear that they were something very special.
That they were yeah, meant something very special to him.
Speaker 2 (09:16):
You know. My mom used to say, if someone gives
you a rose and it dies real fast, that means
they gave it to you without love. That's for a
long time and it opens up and blossoms is because
they gave it to you with passion and with love
and all the yes. That's why flowers is a you know,
(09:37):
a good symbol you know, and roses you see everywhere,
so that is a good title, you know, to have.
But the title sounds more like R and B romantic.
What part of it did you make it like pop?
Was it the music or the lyrics? Like? How did
you know?
Speaker 4 (09:57):
It was naturally like transfer formed into into it just
started more sounding like like kind of jazzy tune. It
was more jazzy, but we were like, uh, the more
we worked on it, the it became more like easygoing,
(10:18):
I could say so, but it's something natural, you know,
it happened naturally. We weren't we We hardly ever think like,
oh this is going to be this or that. Well
sometimes yes, for instance, if we are writing, if I'm
writing a reggae yeah, very specific, you know, like the
(10:40):
group is very specific. But for us, they they there's
still like a like something not quite uh like that.
It's not that clear, know that the way they are
(11:02):
going to to.
Speaker 2 (11:05):
You let the what we call we let the the
time take its course, you know.
Speaker 4 (11:11):
Yeah, yeah you cannot push you know, well you can,
but that's not my style. I prefer to give time,
you know, and to see what happens with the song.
This song started like a very jazzy tune, but it
got into a poppy song, a pop song. We removed
(11:32):
all the like more like sophisticated like chords, and the
harmony got simplified and finally it worked better for for
the lyrics. You know, it was better. And it's all
I can say. You know, it sounded better, It felt
(11:53):
it felt better for it felt more honest and beautiful. Finally,
you want to sound it beautiful, right, It's something that
you think, oh wow, this is beautiful, this is beautiful.
Speaker 2 (12:05):
And did you write the song or did you have
help writing it.
Speaker 4 (12:09):
Yeah, yeah, I write, I wrote it, but I co
wrote it with my music producer, Marris Hayes. That now
we are in his studio, I mean his studio working
more music. Okay, that's why I'm surrounded by princess.
Speaker 2 (12:26):
Pictures. You can never go wrong with Prince in the background.
Speaker 4 (12:30):
Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, because my music producer, morrisy
has worked with Prince for like twenty years. Oh wow,
yeah yeah, many, many years.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
Yes, So that's good to have the experienced producer. And
you know, especially Prince was jazz and R and B,
you know type of thing, and then he moved towards.
Speaker 4 (12:52):
But also very you know, there are songs that sometimes
people I think that they don't know, but monic like
in Monday, you know that that song is a Princess
song and it's a super poppy song, right in many
songs that he did everything, I think it's one of
(13:12):
the Oh yeah, he.
Speaker 2 (13:14):
Wrote a lot of songs. He wrote a lot of
songs for other audiots.
Speaker 4 (13:17):
So yeah, yes, yes, yes, and I have here also
in Marrige's studio. There he works with another musician that
also worked with Prince. His name is Kith Blackshire and
he was a vocalist for Prince and he also worked
(13:39):
on the vocals on the vocal arrangement for for the
song for a lot of that's good.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
It's always great to have experienced people on a project
like this because you know you're going from one song
you just want to go up and up and up.
Speaker 4 (13:58):
Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 2 (13:59):
So, uh and how long did it take you to
uh come out with this song? Like you know, because
I know some people keep songs in the back, like
you know, they don't bring it out right away. Was
this one of the songs? Or was this just I
wrote it and made it real quick?
Speaker 4 (14:19):
No? Really, Look when we were talking about sex appheal,
sex apeal was fast, I don't know. It was something
in four months. I wrote it, but not wrote it.
I wrote it, recorded and almost missed it. You know,
it was super fast. But with Love is a Rose, No,
(14:42):
Love is a rose. Woo almost. It took me almost
one year to have ever done because as I'm as
I told you, you know, it started like a jazzy
tune and then we record to them of it, but
we didn't kind of like it. It was maybe too worthy,
(15:04):
too difficult to sophisticated. I don't know the mix. It
don't work. It was too much of everything, too worthy
and to sophisticated, like as far as a harmony, to sophisticate.
Everything was too much. And then we were removed. We
were removing more and more, and but finally the result
(15:26):
is very interesting because I think that sometimes when when
when something is hard to do, it adds some layers.
They're there that uh, there's a like a the effort,
the extra effort, I think that you you put on
it sometimes not always, but sometimes add some kind of
(15:52):
I don't know, an extra layer of uh mystery kind
of you know, or you know, there's some thing that
on the background that maybe people don't get it somehow.
Speaker 2 (16:07):
You know, Like right, what made you like this song?
It seems like you put you're all into it and
you wanted to make sure it was even better than
sex appeal? What it made you? What made you want
to do with this like that?
Speaker 4 (16:24):
Because maybe because I wanted to really write a happy
love song and I don't have any happy love song.
I think it's the first and it's still not super
happy happy like, but because it has its nostalgic moments
and it's like a little bit melancholic still you know,
(16:46):
but for me is I think it's the happiest song
I've ever happiest love song I've ever wrote, because all
my love songs are like, well are not love songs
are are like are broke up songs like yeah breaking up?
(17:06):
Or or yeah like sad love some sex. I only
have said love love some So I think that is
the first happy song, happy love song that a bit
melancholic but still happy. And I'm really proud of it,
and it's it was a challenge because I don't know,
(17:26):
because it required of some like yeah, a lot of
reflection on love, you know, or what are the things
that you need to to write about or to have
a happy a happy uh love affair or a love
(17:48):
story uh with with someone or to share you know,
a mature, grown up and healthy love off you know.
So what, Well, that's a lot, you know. And I
think that Mary Oliver coincidentally really has some really in
(18:10):
in uh yeah, in his in her in her poetry,
there's a lot of you know of of keys you
know of she gives a lot of of yes to
what it can be, you know what what she I
think that she really managed to to get closer to
(18:37):
what are the keys to healthy and happy law?
Speaker 2 (18:44):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (18:45):
Relations, yeah yeah yeah.
Speaker 2 (18:49):
Have you ever done like a ballot or a ballot
in Spanish or something ballot? Yeah yeah, ballot sing things right,
But that's what ballad is, right, without the music, without
the without your voice, right.
Speaker 4 (19:12):
Just like no, I don't know what are you?
Speaker 2 (19:17):
You know?
Speaker 5 (19:17):
Like uh.
Speaker 4 (19:21):
Uh huh come a ballad? A ballad?
Speaker 2 (19:26):
Right? A ballad? Right?
Speaker 4 (19:28):
Yes, well but with music you mean, yes, yes, yes,
but in Spanish, in Spanish, uh, in Spanish, I have
some uh some love songs, right, but I could say
that I'm not happy love songs, no, not even in
(19:49):
Spanish happy love.
Speaker 5 (19:53):
No, no, no, no, no no.
Speaker 4 (19:54):
They were like, you know, like a little bit bitter
or sometimes sometimes not you know that like uh that
were not There are songs of love that I'm talking
(20:17):
to a lover that doesn't really has the same interest,
doesn't have the same interest that I'm having, like that
it is not corresponding, corresponding how you say, like this,
it's not corresponding. Yeah, it's not correspond So there are
(20:37):
songs that there were these kind of bitter songs because
the it's not the same, So that the story is
very unbalanced. There there's no balance. You want more and
the other is not interested, or something you were more
commitment and the other one is not interested, and there
(21:01):
was something.
Speaker 2 (21:02):
One one or one person or once more than the
other exactly.
Speaker 4 (21:07):
It is very common in my songs. I don't know why.
I guess that I don't choose. I'm not I'm not
I'm not good at choosing. I guess I don't know.
I don't know, but this is one of the themes.
And then I have really sad songs about a breakup
(21:29):
and and I don't know the sadness and trying to
the reasons why, and trying to, you know, like like
make something beautiful of the sadness, you know, because to
to make music when I feel sad, because then I
feel less. I feel not happier, but at least I
(21:54):
feel that that that I found a way to to
feel more mean no, no, no, less emotions. I think
that I translate to as I'm trying to translate that
saddness into music. I'm doing, you know, activity that is
(22:19):
more like if you are like doing some meditation, you know,
like me. So I'm kind of trying to keep everything
like more under control, you know, so I can into
words into organize it translated into chords into harmony. So
(22:45):
that makes me feel at peace, more at peace, you know.
If not that, I could be like cry, you're gonna
t and I do it anyway, you.
Speaker 5 (22:55):
Know, but.
Speaker 4 (22:57):
A way to find some piece for these moments that
are so like sad for everyone, you know.
Speaker 2 (23:06):
So it does. It does take a toll on your body,
you know, when you're you're singing these type of emotional songs.
I can see why, you know, you would do certain
things like that, But we're running out of time. I
just want to ask you what do you do to
prepare yourself for like a song, Like you sit there
(23:28):
and say, okay, this is the type of song I'm
going to sing I'm gonna write. What what is your preparations?
How do you prepare?
Speaker 5 (23:37):
Oh?
Speaker 4 (23:39):
Honestly, I just need to have an instrument by my side,
like a keyboard or a guitar. But sometimes I don't
have anything, and and I'm inspired by something I cannot
explain where it comes to inspiration, it comes right So
and maybe I'm in the subway and I like kind
of start thinking of a mellow or something, and I
(24:01):
just recorded on my on my cell phone, you know,
I use the voice memos and I record and then
when I get back home and I can play it
on a keyword, then I can, like you know, work
on that first idea, because in New York, sometimes I'm
(24:23):
not even at home, you know, and this is huge,
and sometimes I have to wait one hour or two
until I get home. So I learned to use the
voice memos of my cell phone.
Speaker 2 (24:38):
You're not the only one. I use the writing membo
on the phone or I speak on it when I
when I feel like what I want to do with
independent artists, what I want to do with the radio
station out right away with because by the time I
get home, like yourself, I will forget, like what was
that I wanted to remember?
Speaker 4 (24:54):
And you know exactly exactly I have to write it down. Yes,
but Charles, I'm very happy you know that that that
I'm always uh when whenever I wherever I travel, I
always talk about your radio station, guys, ld M Radio,
because I think, thank you, you are doing a great job.
(25:18):
And in New York especially that there's so many you know,
talented artists and international artists and and you guys are
so are great you are great and you are always
so supportive and and and I'm really proud, you know, to.
Speaker 2 (25:37):
Thank you, thank you part of of ld MS. Yes,
you know, anytime you have music, you know you're want
to talk about it. We have our doors are always open.
We figure out a way how to get you guys.
This is the reason why I made this podcast, because
I wanted to talk to individuals about their songs, or
not even about the songs, just to talk about music.
Speaker 4 (26:00):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (26:00):
Uh, and you know, not that many artists sit down
and just talk about music and talk about, you know,
their inspirations. And that's why we made this podcast. And uh,
you know, it's been going okay and we're just gonna
want to keep it up. But ladies and gentlemen, if
you definitely want to check her out, you can hit
up on Instagram and Facebook and it's m E I
(26:24):
a underscore. M E. I. Make sure you put the
underscore because someone told me I can't find her and
I was like, put the underscore. You have to, you know,
separate it. And then you find on Instagram, Yes, and
check out sex Appeal, check out a new one The
(26:45):
Rose and who's again the producer.
Speaker 4 (26:49):
And of the idea of the sound of the new
song that is Love is Love is a rose is
a producer is Maurice Hayes. But Mari's ha saying music
of sex appeal. Yes, sir, he's the same. And I've
been working with him for the last two years and
(27:10):
this is our third, our third song together, and we
are working on new music also.
Speaker 2 (27:19):
Yes. And then any artist listening, uh, if you like
other independent artists, call them up. You never know. You
both can make music together. That's I've seen a couple
of independent artists who got together because they heard each
other on the radio and now they made a song together.
So anything is possible. And one of them, one of
(27:42):
them is from New York and one of them I
think was from Canada or something.
Speaker 4 (27:46):
Oh wow.
Speaker 2 (27:47):
And the only time they got together was through the internet.
So I don't know how they did it, but they
made a good song.
Speaker 4 (27:54):
It's possible, of course, when when I work with Maris
and with and with the vocals that we work with
kid they both are now living in Arkansas, so and
we work from a distance also, and it's and we
can do I mean, at least with the musicians, we
(28:16):
can do it. We can work it out, so we
have the tools and we send back and forth like
audios and and and then the final stage you can
if you have the time to travel and you want that,
I mean, it's all it's I would say that it's
(28:36):
always better because it adds some magic, you know, to
like to work together like you side by side by side.
But if not, you can also record it on on
your own studio and and and send it to mixed
and will work well as well.
Speaker 2 (28:57):
You know. Well, ladies and gentlemen, we you know, we
got to call it a day, but don't leave. When
we go, we're gonna play her song Love is a
Rose and again this is a song that was reflected
for the love changing nature inspired by the poetry of
Mary Oliver. So listen to it and also check out
(29:20):
her cover album. She even has a little rose a
dress on and everything, so check that out. That's on
her Instagram as well. So, but again, thank you for
being part of our show, and you know we wish
you all the best. And that's also a song that
(29:40):
will be up for voting. Remember you can vote for
them for the top ten of week. The new voting
begins I think in May the end of May for
the tenth year of the LDM Music Awards.
Speaker 4 (29:55):
So oh my god, yeah them Music Awards. That makes
me real so excited.
Speaker 2 (30:01):
Yeah, so check them out for all your independent artists.
And every independent artist, I got to say it many
many times, is up for hiring. So if you have
an event, you have something, and you want to hire
some independent artists, do so call them up. If you
don't know how to contact them, you contact the DM Radio.
We contact them for you and put you guys together
(30:25):
because it's hard to be a independent artist. You know,
they need the money.
Speaker 4 (30:29):
So you know, it's great to hear you because you
know what you're talking about. You know, you've been many
years working on on radio shows and with independent nadis
and it's impressive.
Speaker 2 (30:46):
And hundreds of hundreds, uh, we actually get like two
hundred songs, close to two hundred songs every single year,
new songs from different artists and and you know, we
try to put them on the plat form for for
other people to know who they are. But you know,
there are some scammers out there that don't want to
(31:07):
pay or don't want to you know. Yeah, so be
careful out there, yes, but check it out again. Beautiful
songs of hers, so check it out. Love is a road,
So we're going to hear this right after this. So
thank you and hope you finish your vacation slash business.
Speaker 4 (31:30):
Yes, yes, now you know what. I'm working on a
new tune that I think that in summer I will
have it finished. I don't know, let's let's see how
it works for now. Just keep the I always try
to be active and record and write and you know,
(31:50):
and and be active and because you know, we we
we have to celebrate then now that we still I'm
still you know, like working with so big, like this
experience musicians that is for me something you know that
(32:11):
I I want to be active to to to be
able to to learn more and more from them in
every production. I'm I'm learning so much from all these
musicians that I'm working with, because it's it's something you know,
I would have never imagined to be able to work
(32:32):
with this such like not not only professional, but like
like another level, you know, like people that work with prints,
that have worked with so many start, you know, So
for me it's something you know, I'm just grateful opportunity.
Speaker 2 (32:53):
But you're being blessed and continue doing your work and you.
Speaker 4 (33:00):
Used to stop, you know, I have to work, yes, yes.
Speaker 2 (33:04):
Yeah, but again thank you for everything that you're doing.
Your next project let us know, but we'll see you
again when we when we're gonna call you for a
couple of events and maybe some just to come in
and talk. You know. Yeah, h.
Speaker 4 (33:24):
You know the the sessions that you did in winter
that unfortunately.
Speaker 2 (33:31):
Well the the nothing but woman Power is coming back. Yeah,
So it's all women artists, comedians, you know, things like that.
So we're trying to get it together, figure out how
we're going to do it because a lot of people
that want to do it don't live in the United States,

Speaker 4 (01:15):
Good, I'm doing great. I'm happy to to talk with
you again, guys, and I'm happy to present my my
my music with you. And last time when I was
in the on the l d M show, we were
(01:38):
I think that we were talking about my new release
right that I was about.
Speaker 2 (01:44):
Yeah, we were speaking about the new.
Speaker 4 (01:46):
One, thinking about that, right, and we were.
Speaker 2 (01:49):
Talking about what was it a sex appeal?
Speaker 4 (01:52):
The sex appeal, Yeah, we were talking about and then
I I I remember that uh that you were talking about.
Also the music video of sex Appeal, and yes, yes.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
If guys have not seen the music video or listen
to the song, go check it out. It's very uh appeeling.
I like the whole thing, and it's sex appeal. That's
the name of the of the thing, and that's how
it is a very good video. But the song itself
is great. So watching video or listen to the song
(02:30):
either or you would never be disappointed. So you know
that's a good thing.
Speaker 4 (02:35):
Yes, well, this song is more The song that I'm
that I just released is all Love Is a Rose.
The title is Love Is a Rose, and it's another
like gen kind of it's pop. It's still pop as
another vibe is more romantic.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
And yeah, because we're still trying to find out what
is the who's the song about? I remember we were
talking about it on.
Speaker 4 (03:06):
You were trying to find out.
Speaker 2 (03:09):
We were trying to find out. We still want to know.
Speaker 4 (03:11):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, but honestly, I was inspired by a
poem and the rest it's a bit like I don't know,
like adding some kind of like maybe personal stuff but
not it's not really inspired by like a romance that
(03:31):
I'm just having or something. No, it's not that that
I can say. No, well, I met my boyfriend and
then you know, I was inspired by our love story
that I know put it into words. Not I know,
it's not it's not like that, but it's just still honest.
It's just still sincere. I mean, I really am. It's
(03:55):
not so far away from me for from what I think, uh, well,
what I my experiences like related to love. But in
the let me tell you first, the the the poem
(04:15):
that I chose, it's called the Gift and is a
Mary Oliver's poem. And in this in this poem, uh,
she is like she's reflecting on the the the resilience,
(04:36):
the the on on on on love, you know, some
like the patience, uh is afection of maybe a mature love,
you know. So I think in that moment of my
life that that I wanted to to put out a
song that I'm talking about more like mature love, not
(05:02):
like a you know.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
So it was adult motions.
Speaker 1 (05:07):
Yes, it was a.
Speaker 4 (05:08):
Good Uh, it was a good rough material. Two two
to take off you know to to build the song
and the lyrics because Mary Oliver already has a lot
of power the words and and the spirit, you know,
(05:29):
so I just tried to be close to these also
the the the the song is called Love is a
Rose because Mary Oliver also has many poems that are
like related to the the nature. No, there are many
(05:50):
methods related to flowers, to animals and and I think
it's I don't know. I tried to really capture her
spirit somehow in a good way, you know, to to
pay ho much to that, and also adding my own
(06:11):
personal material, you know, but it's not really it's not
really based on any biographic biographical like you know, like
personal story of mine is no, no, like.
Speaker 2 (06:31):
I could, well, you say it's not personal. But since
you're basing it off of a poem that you felt,
you know, rever you strongly to, it seems a little personal.
Then it's it's from your heart, you know, because that's something.
Speaker 4 (06:48):
Yeah, it's from my heart, and it's from my sense,
like my my personal taste, you know, as far as poetry,
as far as I study, as far as even I
don't know, like like, yes, it is personal, is personal,
but it's not my own story like gys oh, so bring.
Speaker 2 (07:14):
Bring out the Latina in you. You know, the Latinos
are passionate, you know, and they love and roses. You
know why roses.
Speaker 4 (07:24):
Are we it's a gift that we offer to our lovers.
You know. That's why I wanted to because the original
the poem says it's it says the gift right and
for me a way to translate this in my personal
life if I want to, I mean, if you want
(07:49):
to steal my heart, if you you know, if if
you're a rose, yeah then I'm one hundred percent you
you you have me.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
You know, because rose can get you out of trouble
and they can get you into love. You know, if
you're in trouble, you get some roses and they maybe
forgive you.
Speaker 4 (08:11):
You know, well, I possibly will do it. Yeah, yeah,
I possibly would do it because for me, roses you know,
are very connected to also my childhood. My grandfather give
me roses every time that I visit them, and I
always relate like giving flowers to expressing love and you know,
(08:38):
so it's something that honestly, it's not something romantic like
silly or cheesy, you know, for me, not for me
be very genuine. And my grandfather had these roses in
his garden and I always show how much love and
(09:00):
care you know, he took care of those roses like
that that it was clear that they were something very special.
That they were yeah, meant something very special to him.
Speaker 2 (09:16):
You know. My mom used to say, if someone gives
you a rose and it dies real fast, that means
they gave it to you without love. That's for a
long time and it opens up and blossoms is because
they gave it to you with passion and with love
and all the yes. That's why flowers is a you know,
(09:37):
a good symbol you know, and roses you see everywhere,
so that is a good title, you know, to have.
But the title sounds more like R and B romantic.
What part of it did you make it like pop?
Was it the music or the lyrics? Like? How did
you know?
Speaker 4 (09:57):
It was naturally like transfer formed into into it just
started more sounding like like kind of jazzy tune. It
was more jazzy, but we were like, uh, the more
we worked on it, the it became more like easygoing,
(10:18):
I could say so, but it's something natural, you know,
it happened naturally. We weren't we We hardly ever think like,
oh this is going to be this or that. Well
sometimes yes, for instance, if we are writing, if I'm
writing a reggae yeah, very specific, you know, like the
(10:40):
group is very specific. But for us, they they there's
still like a like something not quite uh like that.
It's not that clear, know that the way they are
(11:02):
going to to.
Speaker 2 (11:05):
You let the what we call we let the the
time take its course, you know.
Speaker 4 (11:11):
Yeah, yeah you cannot push you know, well you can,
but that's not my style. I prefer to give time,
you know, and to see what happens with the song.
This song started like a very jazzy tune, but it
got into a poppy song, a pop song. We removed
(11:32):
all the like more like sophisticated like chords, and the
harmony got simplified and finally it worked better for for
the lyrics. You know, it was better. And it's all
I can say. You know, it sounded better, It felt
(11:53):
it felt better for it felt more honest and beautiful. Finally,
you want to sound it beautiful, right, It's something that
you think, oh wow, this is beautiful, this is beautiful.
Speaker 2 (12:05):
And did you write the song or did you have
help writing it.
Speaker 4 (12:09):
Yeah, yeah, I write, I wrote it, but I co
wrote it with my music producer, Marris Hayes. That now
we are in his studio, I mean his studio working
more music. Okay, that's why I'm surrounded by princess.
Speaker 2 (12:26):
Pictures. You can never go wrong with Prince in the background.
Speaker 4 (12:30):
Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, because my music producer, morrisy
has worked with Prince for like twenty years. Oh wow,
yeah yeah, many, many years.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
Yes, So that's good to have the experienced producer. And
you know, especially Prince was jazz and R and B,
you know type of thing, and then he moved towards.
Speaker 4 (12:52):
But also very you know, there are songs that sometimes
people I think that they don't know, but monic like
in Monday, you know that that song is a Princess
song and it's a super poppy song, right in many
songs that he did everything, I think it's one of
(13:12):
the Oh yeah, he.
Speaker 2 (13:14):
Wrote a lot of songs. He wrote a lot of
songs for other audiots.
Speaker 4 (13:17):
So yeah, yes, yes, yes, and I have here also
in Marrige's studio. There he works with another musician that
also worked with Prince. His name is Kith Blackshire and
he was a vocalist for Prince and he also worked
(13:39):
on the vocals on the vocal arrangement for for the
song for a lot of that's good.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
It's always great to have experienced people on a project
like this because you know you're going from one song
you just want to go up and up and up.
Speaker 4 (13:58):
Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 2 (13:59):
So, uh and how long did it take you to
uh come out with this song? Like you know, because
I know some people keep songs in the back, like
you know, they don't bring it out right away. Was
this one of the songs? Or was this just I
wrote it and made it real quick?
Speaker 4 (14:19):
No? Really, Look when we were talking about sex appheal,
sex apeal was fast, I don't know. It was something
in four months. I wrote it, but not wrote it.
I wrote it, recorded and almost missed it. You know,
it was super fast. But with Love is a Rose, No,
(14:42):
Love is a rose. Woo almost. It took me almost
one year to have ever done because as I'm as
I told you, you know, it started like a jazzy
tune and then we record to them of it, but
we didn't kind of like it. It was maybe too worthy,
(15:04):
too difficult to sophisticated. I don't know the mix. It
don't work. It was too much of everything, too worthy
and to sophisticated, like as far as a harmony, to sophisticate.
Everything was too much. And then we were removed. We
were removing more and more, and but finally the result
(15:26):
is very interesting because I think that sometimes when when
when something is hard to do, it adds some layers.
They're there that uh, there's a like a the effort,
the extra effort, I think that you you put on
it sometimes not always, but sometimes add some kind of
(15:52):
I don't know, an extra layer of uh mystery kind
of you know, or you know, there's some thing that
on the background that maybe people don't get it somehow.
Speaker 2 (16:07):
You know, Like right, what made you like this song?
It seems like you put you're all into it and
you wanted to make sure it was even better than
sex appeal? What it made you? What made you want
to do with this like that?
Speaker 4 (16:24):
Because maybe because I wanted to really write a happy
love song and I don't have any happy love song.
I think it's the first and it's still not super
happy happy like, but because it has its nostalgic moments
and it's like a little bit melancholic still you know,
(16:46):
but for me is I think it's the happiest song
I've ever happiest love song I've ever wrote, because all
my love songs are like, well are not love songs
are are like are broke up songs like yeah breaking up?
(17:06):
Or or yeah like sad love some sex. I only
have said love love some So I think that is
the first happy song, happy love song that a bit
melancholic but still happy. And I'm really proud of it,
and it's it was a challenge because I don't know,
(17:26):
because it required of some like yeah, a lot of
reflection on love, you know, or what are the things
that you need to to write about or to have
a happy a happy uh love affair or a love
(17:48):
story uh with with someone or to share you know,
a mature, grown up and healthy love off you know.
So what, Well, that's a lot, you know. And I
think that Mary Oliver coincidentally really has some really in
(18:10):
in uh yeah, in his in her in her poetry,
there's a lot of you know of of keys you
know of she gives a lot of of yes to
what it can be, you know what what she I
think that she really managed to to get closer to
(18:37):
what are the keys to healthy and happy law?
Speaker 2 (18:44):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (18:45):
Relations, yeah yeah yeah.
Speaker 2 (18:49):
Have you ever done like a ballot or a ballot
in Spanish or something ballot? Yeah yeah, ballot sing things right,
But that's what ballad is, right, without the music, without
the without your voice, right.
Speaker 4 (19:12):
Just like no, I don't know what are you?
Speaker 2 (19:17):
You know?
Speaker 5 (19:17):
Like uh.
Speaker 4 (19:21):
Uh huh come a ballad? A ballad?
Speaker 2 (19:26):
Right? A ballad? Right?
Speaker 4 (19:28):
Yes, well but with music you mean, yes, yes, yes,
but in Spanish, in Spanish, uh, in Spanish, I have
some uh some love songs, right, but I could say
that I'm not happy love songs, no, not even in
(19:49):
Spanish happy love.
Speaker 5 (19:53):
No, no, no, no, no no.
Speaker 4 (19:54):
They were like, you know, like a little bit bitter
or sometimes sometimes not you know that like uh that
were not There are songs of love that I'm talking
(20:17):
to a lover that doesn't really has the same interest,
doesn't have the same interest that I'm having, like that
it is not corresponding, corresponding how you say, like this,
it's not corresponding. Yeah, it's not correspond So there are
(20:37):
songs that there were these kind of bitter songs because
the it's not the same, So that the story is
very unbalanced. There there's no balance. You want more and
the other is not interested, or something you were more
commitment and the other one is not interested, and there
(21:01):
was something.
Speaker 2 (21:02):
One one or one person or once more than the
other exactly.
Speaker 4 (21:07):
It is very common in my songs. I don't know why.
I guess that I don't choose. I'm not I'm not
I'm not good at choosing. I guess I don't know.
I don't know, but this is one of the themes.
And then I have really sad songs about a breakup
(21:29):
and and I don't know the sadness and trying to
the reasons why, and trying to, you know, like like
make something beautiful of the sadness, you know, because to
to make music when I feel sad, because then I
feel less. I feel not happier, but at least I
(21:54):
feel that that that I found a way to to
feel more mean no, no, no, less emotions. I think
that I translate to as I'm trying to translate that
saddness into music. I'm doing, you know, activity that is
(22:19):
more like if you are like doing some meditation, you know,
like me. So I'm kind of trying to keep everything
like more under control, you know, so I can into
words into organize it translated into chords into harmony. So
(22:45):
that makes me feel at peace, more at peace, you know.
If not that, I could be like cry, you're gonna
t and I do it anyway, you.
Speaker 5 (22:55):
Know, but.
Speaker 4 (22:57):
A way to find some piece for these moments that
are so like sad for everyone, you know.
Speaker 2 (23:06):
So it does. It does take a toll on your body,
you know, when you're you're singing these type of emotional songs.
I can see why, you know, you would do certain
things like that, But we're running out of time. I
just want to ask you what do you do to
prepare yourself for like a song, Like you sit there
(23:28):
and say, okay, this is the type of song I'm
going to sing I'm gonna write. What what is your preparations?
How do you prepare?
Speaker 5 (23:37):
Oh?
Speaker 4 (23:39):
Honestly, I just need to have an instrument by my side,
like a keyboard or a guitar. But sometimes I don't
have anything, and and I'm inspired by something I cannot
explain where it comes to inspiration, it comes right So
and maybe I'm in the subway and I like kind
of start thinking of a mellow or something, and I
(24:01):
just recorded on my on my cell phone, you know,
I use the voice memos and I record and then
when I get back home and I can play it
on a keyword, then I can, like you know, work
on that first idea, because in New York, sometimes I'm
(24:23):
not even at home, you know, and this is huge,
and sometimes I have to wait one hour or two
until I get home. So I learned to use the
voice memos of my cell phone.
Speaker 2 (24:38):
You're not the only one. I use the writing membo
on the phone or I speak on it when I
when I feel like what I want to do with
independent artists, what I want to do with the radio
station out right away with because by the time I
get home, like yourself, I will forget, like what was
that I wanted to remember?
Speaker 4 (24:54):
And you know exactly exactly I have to write it down. Yes,
but Charles, I'm very happy you know that that that
I'm always uh when whenever I wherever I travel, I
always talk about your radio station, guys, ld M Radio,
because I think, thank you, you are doing a great job.
(25:18):
And in New York especially that there's so many you know,
talented artists and international artists and and you guys are
so are great you are great and you are always
so supportive and and and I'm really proud, you know, to.
Speaker 2 (25:37):
Thank you, thank you part of of ld MS. Yes,
you know, anytime you have music, you know you're want
to talk about it. We have our doors are always open.
We figure out a way how to get you guys.
This is the reason why I made this podcast, because
I wanted to talk to individuals about their songs, or
not even about the songs, just to talk about music.
Speaker 4 (26:00):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (26:00):
Uh, and you know, not that many artists sit down
and just talk about music and talk about, you know,
their inspirations. And that's why we made this podcast. And uh,
you know, it's been going okay and we're just gonna
want to keep it up. But ladies and gentlemen, if
you definitely want to check her out, you can hit
up on Instagram and Facebook and it's m E I
(26:24):
a underscore. M E. I. Make sure you put the
underscore because someone told me I can't find her and
I was like, put the underscore. You have to, you know,
separate it. And then you find on Instagram, Yes, and
check out sex Appeal, check out a new one The
(26:45):
Rose and who's again the producer.
Speaker 4 (26:49):
And of the idea of the sound of the new
song that is Love is Love is a rose is
a producer is Maurice Hayes. But Mari's ha saying music
of sex appeal. Yes, sir, he's the same. And I've
been working with him for the last two years and
(27:10):
this is our third, our third song together, and we
are working on new music also.
Speaker 2 (27:19):
Yes. And then any artist listening, uh, if you like
other independent artists, call them up. You never know. You
both can make music together. That's I've seen a couple
of independent artists who got together because they heard each
other on the radio and now they made a song together.
So anything is possible. And one of them, one of
(27:42):
them is from New York and one of them I
think was from Canada or something.
Speaker 4 (27:46):
Oh wow.
Speaker 2 (27:47):
And the only time they got together was through the internet.
So I don't know how they did it, but they
made a good song.
Speaker 4 (27:54):
It's possible, of course, when when I work with Maris
and with and with the vocals that we work with
kid they both are now living in Arkansas, so and
we work from a distance also, and it's and we
can do I mean, at least with the musicians, we
(28:16):
can do it. We can work it out, so we
have the tools and we send back and forth like
audios and and and then the final stage you can
if you have the time to travel and you want that,
I mean, it's all it's I would say that it's
(28:36):
always better because it adds some magic, you know, to
like to work together like you side by side by side.
But if not, you can also record it on on
your own studio and and and send it to mixed
and will work well as well.
Speaker 2 (28:57):
You know. Well, ladies and gentlemen, we you know, we
got to call it a day, but don't leave. When
we go, we're gonna play her song Love is a
Rose and again this is a song that was reflected
for the love changing nature inspired by the poetry of
Mary Oliver. So listen to it and also check out
(29:20):
her cover album. She even has a little rose a
dress on and everything, so check that out. That's on
her Instagram as well. So, but again, thank you for
being part of our show, and you know we wish
you all the best. And that's also a song that
(29:40):
will be up for voting. Remember you can vote for
them for the top ten of week. The new voting
begins I think in May the end of May for
the tenth year of the LDM Music Awards.
Speaker 4 (29:55):
So oh my god, yeah them Music Awards. That makes
me real so excited.
Speaker 2 (30:01):
Yeah, so check them out for all your independent artists.
And every independent artist, I got to say it many
