about

Hiatus Days Over was a spur of the moment project similar to Become The Savior. It originally began as an EP meant to only stall time for, at the time, the beyond delayed Truth Ain’t Dead album (which also started as an EP). Quickly, it blossomed dangerously into something so much more in the most beautiful yet toughest way.

I had thought HDO would be easy to complete since I had more experience and better resources. Sadly, just like with TAD, the HDO album was becoming delayed; mainly due to a mixture of people slacking off while I’m away and me being out of state for school in the 1st place. I drove back & fourth from Mississippi to Chicago every chance I got to work on the album. I was forced to become more efficient with my time as I would only have a few days at a time to work on the album. I spent tons of night shifts at J’s studio and sometimes stayed there 24 hours. I learned to record myself, apply vocal effects, mix etc. Delay after delay I had to redo all my release plans which made many people not take me serious... there were many times where I doubted myself. Still, I pushed through no matter how burned out I got. Even with all the hard work, stress gained, money loss, health loss, tears dropped, and spirit energy I put into every second of the day getting the album done, I still failed to put the album out before I graduated.

While it hurt in the moment, I’m so happy things turned out that way as it allowed the album to go through multiple evolutions and transform into something epic. Over the course of time I added new songs and became a stronger individual. When I returned home from college, in one month I had my own place. The next 2 months I restructured my music resources, gathered funds and ultimately got the entire album remixed and mastered. I then quit my job and dedicated September to releasing the album. This album, one that was never supposed to exist, blossomed into something so beautiful I can now never picture life without it. Hiatus Days Over solidifies me as an artist and shows my ambition in its rawest complete form. Truth Ain’t Dead will be a masterpiece. Become The Savior is forever the core. I will manifest all my dreams.
