2025 is real

Identity Theft Me (2nd song snippet in op) animation music video is FINALLY FINISHED!

Here's some stills

This will be the first song released. Then the 2nd will be No More Traffic (the 1st song snippet in op). We are shooting for sometime in February for Identity Theft Me to release. And hopefully do a song every 2 weeks to a month before the full release of The Future is Forever album.

And here's the fully updated coverart that i mentioned would have to be edited for streaming - this is the compromise:

🚨 THE YAPPING HOUR:

The direct inspo for the animation music of Identity Theft Me was the leaked RoboCop music videos from Kanye (ironically i dont like the song RoboCop) and the anime music videos for Daft Punk. Theme inspo of the music video was technology over usage and a futuristic "cyberpunk" dance club. The dance club scene of the Batman Beyond episode and the Belly nightclub of Nas and DMX scene were also a frame of reference

It's to contrast the idea of the song's struggle with identity and self and losing your way "from yourself". Which was loosely inspired by MJ's Man in the Mirror along with 2 personal irl events of literally getting my identity stolen, and an arc in my life where a lot of crazy s*** i was going through n "losing/fighting myself".

The sound of the beat and song is inspired by dance-funk, disco/electro & old detective/cop shows music intros - all thought of, produced, written and mixed/mastered by me. Same with every other song on the album and singles. While I get opinions from a few music friends irl throughout the process 🤓

2025 is REAL and WE'RE CLOSE. The major visualizer for No More Traffic and the major music video for Identity Theft Me is done and the mastering for the whole project is done + all the cover arts

And thank you to the various people online n irl that provided and made the 3D models for me for both songs.

Hype for this bro relistened to the snippets in OP

great artwork n reminds me slyly of neptunes idky vibey n minimalist

Artwork for project + tracklist:

• Front

• Back

Done by me, reviewed by friends

There is planned to be at least 4 singles, the choices are from these:

Mother is out the hospital, I'm returning to do stuff for the thread soon. More previews too.

Deep summer soon.

Can't wait to hear it

I'm glad to hear your mother is doing better bro

Preciate it bro, on both topics. She's doing fine now n why I went MIA on the thread for a while, but now since she's good again that means I'm fine now to continue again while thankfully getting that worry out the way 🫡

The full thing is still a few months out you have an email? I can send it it to you and you can tell me what you think. You're one of the few people I care/respect about their music knowledge on this, and one of the fewer people I would trust sending an early copy out due to that knowledge and you being a great writer.

The whole thing is done, besides I might change the beat to You Get Old song (in the tracklist coverart) for the final release, but haven't made up my mind yet.

Just have to tie up all the ends for sending ish to streaming and also finish all the promo material like other animations and whatnot since the coverart is now out the way, but the music n project itself is finished 😤😤

Yea I have an email. I'll dm it to you

Dope, sounds good. Imma send it to you either later today or tomorrow!

I'll @ u itt when I send it n let ya know

@Aquilla

Just sent it to ya email 🫡

Lemme know what you think, if you think it's ass then let me know it's ass and vice versa when you have the chance

My personal favs off the album:

A New Light
Feel What's Real
Call You Tomorrow
Identity Theft Me
Come on Over

I did all the production, mixing, artwork and writing. No samples or premade loops, all original production. It's been worked on since mid/late 2023 in CA and AZ with input from people I know irl.

If the Google drive link is f***ed up lemme know n I'll send a diff one

Bless you and your moms my brother time to feed the streets

had no idea you made music, very in

I just got the email a couple minutes ago

I'm listening it to it rn : I'll let you know what I think later today

Ty brother, the streets would have been fed by now but sometimes life has a diff timeline for u

But better late than never 😤😤

Ty

I do mixing, beat/loop kits and co-production as a side job irl and I used to work at a local studio for production and mixing before covid, but now I'm tryna do my own lil ting

I appreciate the interest, more news later 🫡

Hell yeah
