Mori Soñando
This track is a mix of braggadocios lyrics that celebrate my homecoming and homegoing (great book by the way!). It is an homage to the younger me who had sweet day-dreams while sippin’ on mixed Sunny-D and Milk (if you know you know). Some playful lyrics that’ll have some turning in the graves because: I am breaking their rules. A Black man riding a horse. Flexin’ my writing of course. I am someone's worst nightmare (and also someone's dreams realized). That's why:
𝘏𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘴 𝘉𝘦 𝘚𝘪𝘱𝘱𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘙𝘩𝘺𝘮𝘦𝘴 𝘴𝘭𝘰𝘸𝘭𝘺/
𝘔𝘰𝘳𝘪𝘳 𝘚𝘰ñ𝘢𝘯𝘥𝘰, 𝘩𝘰𝘱𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘺 𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘧𝘭𝘰𝘸 𝘉/
Very proud of how this mix came out. If you have a chance, take a listen to this on some headphones. I was able to get the vocals to sit in the mix by getting better at compression and gain staging. But the other thing that really helped was some reverb tricks I learned from “Help Me Out Devvon” on YouTube, IG @helpmedevvon.
