Endorse Prod by Porter

by Brandi Taylor
DAMNNN!! I came to this guy with only a YouTube beat and two or three words. He asked me about exactly where I was trying take my music and what vibe I wanted people to get from listening to me. It really made me think deeper about who I am as an artist. The work he sent back even came with an explanation on the meaning of the lyrics which helped sooooo much when it came time to record the final version. I connected with the words more than I did before. Porter is the TRUTH!!!
