My oldest son is a hip hop producer! I've scrapped about that so much, I didn't really want to do much journaling, especially because your journaling prompt at the bottom says it all about Sam. Anyway, the producer in this genre of music is the one who creates the beats the rappers use in their songs (?! I don't know if they're called songs! I'm old!) So, he often gets invited to producer showcases or goes into other people's studios to work (everything he does is digitized). He also has a lot of photos on IG that others have taken of him, I grab them all the time. This is the kid that was diagnosed with Asperger's when he was 4. In second grade his teacher told us he's so into drumming...we should get him lessons! So we did...and that evolved into discovering hip hop, "digging in crates" looking for vinyl records, and creating music digitally. He just goes by Trox professionally. He's worked with a lot of legends in the industry, but his biggest hit is 100 Million by DIVINE and Karan Aujla--two famous rappers from India (just looked up the YouTube video...53 million views! CRAZY!) Does it pay the bills...naw! He has a day job, but this is his passion for sure! One day I'm going to scrap about the hilarious titles he gives to the beat tracks. For a kid who took everything literally and didn't always "get" jokes, he has a great sense of humor.
This page is super cool! I am thrilled for him to be doing this. If you've seen any of the Pitch Perfect movies, this is like what the character does, except she also sings along.
