I tend to start with a full set of lyrics, and then my producer, Joel Little, and I work on the music collaboratively.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I write most of my own lyrics for my album and I am helping to produce some of the songs as well.
I usually write lyrics first, and then when I get home or close to any kind of instrument, I usually make a melody for those lyrics.
I create my own lyrics. I have a great band. I have a drummer from East Berlin.
I'm writing a record of comedy songs. I'm doing all these collaborations with artists. I bring them lyrics and they write the music to it.
I have a tape recorder, and I just sing into it. I like to write that way. Sometimes I'll just get melodic ideas, and then I'll go home and sit down and add the lyrics. Or sometimes I'll get a lyric idea that I love. Usually it's pretty combined. Usually I get some kind of a lyrical concept and a melody and work with that.
I always start with the music and then try to figure out what I want to write about lyrically.
I like working with other people but I'm not a songwriter, I'm a producer.
A lot of the songs are written on piano or guitar, so I contribute, and I have done so since the beginning. So it's been good to be involved completely musically as well.
I usually prepare a track, and then I work with the artist when it's time to do the vocals.
