(continued) …proceeded to write and record another hot jam. Having already proven my skills in genres of hip hop, contemporary R&B, and pop, I felt inspired by Fame to take it back to the 1980’s. Coincidentally, the girl who gave me the name “Mr. Whizz-ite” two years ago played the lead role of Carmen in the school production.

Once again the inspiration hit instantly for this song, and I finished recording and editing within about 6 hours of beginning to write the lyrics. Many of the arts students I’ve met balance all their life demands beautifully, but here’s another song dedicated to those who don’t.
