Songwriter and Top Liner

Q: Tell us about a project you worked on you are especially proud of and why. What was your role?

A: One project I’m especially proud of is a song I wrote that blends R&B smoothness with rap energy. My role was the songwriter and topline creator — I crafted the lyrics and vocal melody that gave the track its vibe and flow. What made this project special was how the song captured both the emotional depth of R&B and the rawness of rap, creating a unique sound that really connected with listeners. It showed me how powerful it is to blend genres and bring different energies together through words and melody. Knowing my writing helped shape a track that resonates and hits hard is what keeps me passionate about this craft.

Q: What are you working on at the moment?

A: Right now, I’m dropping a fresh batch of songs I’ve written soon on social media — sharing my sound and story with the world. I’m focused on building my brand and connecting with artists and fans who vibe with my style. Alongside that, I’m working with clients on custom songwriting and toplines, helping them bring their projects to life with original, memorable lyrics and melodies.

Q: Is there anyone on SoundBetter you know and would recommend to your clients?

A: I’m still building my network here on SoundBetter and getting to know other professionals. Right now, I focus on delivering the best songwriting and topline work for my clients. As I grow, I look forward to connecting with trusted producers, engineers, and collaborators to recommend with confidence.

Q: Analog or digital and why?

A: I work mostly in the digital space because it gives me the flexibility and speed to write, record vocal guides, and share ideas quickly. While I respect the warmth and character of analog gear, for my songwriting and demo process, digital is the most practical and efficient way to bring ideas to life — especially when the focus is on capturing melodies and lyrics clearly.

Q: What's your 'promise' to your clients?

A: My promise to every client is to deliver original, heartfelt songs that truly capture their vision and vibe. I commit to clear, honest communication and a collaborative process that respects their ideas and feedback. Even if I’m not the one singing, I promise to provide detailed vocal references so the artist knows exactly how the song should feel and flow. Above all, I guarantee professionalism, timely delivery, and a final product that’s ready to record and move audiences.

Q: What do you like most about your job?

A: What I love most about songwriting is the power to turn feelings and stories into something people can hear and feel. There’s nothing like creating a hook or lyric that connects with someone on a deep level — it’s like giving voice to their experience or emotion. I also love the creative freedom — being able to work across genres and bring different vibes to life. Plus, helping artists find their voice and vision, even when they’re stuck, is one of the most rewarding parts of the job. At the end of the day, it’s about making music that moves people and stands the test of time. That’s what keeps me going.

Q: What questions do customers most commonly ask you? What's your answer?

A: Clients often ask me: How quickly can you deliver the song? Can you help with melodies if I only have lyrics (or vice versa)? How do you handle revisions and feedback? Are your lyrics original and royalty-clear? What’s your process for creating vocal references since you don’t sing? Can you write in multiple genres or styles? I always make sure to answer clearly and keep communication open, so the client feels confident and involved throughout the whole process.

Q: What's the biggest misconception about what you do?

A: One of the biggest misconceptions is that songwriting is just about writing lyrics or rhymes. In reality, it’s about crafting melodies, emotions, and stories that connect deeply with listeners. A songwriter like me doesn’t just put words together — I build the whole vocal vibe that brings a beat to life. Also, some people think that since I’m not a singer, I can’t show them how the song should sound. But I use tools like Suno to create clear vocal references, so artists know exactly how to perform the song and feel the emotion I’m putting down. Songwriting is a full creative process — it’s more than just words on a page.

Q: What questions do you ask prospective clients?

A: To make sure I deliver exactly what the artist wants, I ask questions like: 1. What’s the vibe or feeling you want the song to have? 2. Do you have a specific story or message you want to tell? 3. What genre or style are you aiming for? 4.Do you have a beat or instrumental ready, or do you want me to help build the melody first? 5. Are there any reference songs or artists that inspire the sound you want? 6.How do you want the vocals to feel — smooth, raw, aggressive, emotional? 7. What’s your timeline and how involved do you want to be in the process? Getting these details helps me create a song that fits your vision and hits the mark every time.

Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?

A: Be clear on your vision, even if it’s just a feeling or a vibe — that helps me bring your song to life the way you hear it in your head. Don’t worry about being perfect with your ideas — I can help shape them into something powerful. Just be open, honest, and ready to collaborate. Also, trust the process. I’ve been doing this a long time, and I put heart into every word I write. If you give me the vibe, I’ll give you a song that connects. Come with passion, and I’ll match it every time.

Q: If you were on a desert island and could take just 5 pieces of gear, what would they be?

A: 1. Laptop with Wi-Fi & DAW – Gotta have my main writing station with my go-to tools to create, write, and communicate. 2. Studio Headphones (like Audio-Technica or Beyerdynamic) – For catching every detail in the beat and laying down vocal references. 3. MIDI Controller – To build melodies and sketch out ideas when inspiration hits. 4. Mic + Audio Interface Combo (like Focusrite Scarlett kit) – Just enough to record clean reference vocals if I need to. 5. Suno or Vocal Guide Software – Since I’m not a singer, this helps me bring melodies to life so the artist hears exactly how it should sound. Even on a desert island, I’m writing hits. All I need is a beat, a vibe, and my pen — and it’s game time.

Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?

A: I’ve been writing since I was a small child — it started with poetry. Writing was my way of expressing what I felt when I couldn’t always say it out loud. Over time, that love for words and rhythm naturally morphed into songwriting. It became more than just a hobby — it turned into my passion and purpose. I’ve been songwriting for years, constantly evolving my style and learning how to connect emotion with melody. Now I work with artists, producers, and creatives who need songs that feel real and sound ready. Whether it’s spiritual, soulful, or street — I bring life to music through the pen.

Q: How would you describe your style?

A: My style is real, emotional, and melody-driven. I write songs that feel personal and powerful, with hooks that stick and lyrics that hit home. Whether it’s love, pain, faith, or triumph — I bring that truth-telling energy to every track. I blend soulful storytelling with catchy phrasing, and I always focus on the feeling behind the words. My style fits perfectly with R&B, Hip-Hop, and Gospel/Spiritual music, but I’m flexible enough to write across genres while still keeping that RedHits touch — raw, relatable, and ready to move people.

Q: Which artist would you like to work with and why?

A: I’d love to work with Chris Brown. He’s one of the most versatile artists in the game — he can go from smooth R&B to high-energy pop to street records, and make it all sound effortless. As a songwriter, that gives me space to explore emotion, melody, and rhythm in creative ways. His vocals bring life to strong hooks, and I know I could write something that taps into both his vibe and vocal range — whether it’s a heartfelt ballad, a catchy radio single, or a spiritual message flipped into a modern sound. Working with Chris would be a dope opportunity to create timeless music that moves people.

Q: Can you share one music production tip?

A: Absolutely — leave space in the production for the vocals to shine. Sometimes a beat can be too crowded with sounds, and it takes away from the lyrics or the melody. A clean mix with room to breathe helps the emotion of the song come through, especially when the message matters. Also, when you're building around a topline, think of the beat and the vocals like a conversation — they gotta complement each other, not compete.

Q: What type of music do you usually work on?

A: I usually work on R&B, Hip-Hop, Pop, Country, and Spiritual/Gospel-inspired music, but I’m very versatile across genres. I love writing songs that carry emotion, energy, or a message — whether that’s a soulful love track, a hard-hitting anthem, or something uplifting and spiritual. I work with artists who want their lyrics to mean something, and I help them bring that out through catchy hooks, melodic toplines, and relatable verses. No matter the genre, I focus on creating songs that connect with people and stick with them.

Q: What's your strongest skill?

A: My strongest skill is writing powerful, memorable hooks that instantly connect with listeners. I know how to capture the emotion of a track and turn it into a catchy chorus or topline that brings the whole song together. I also have a gift for translating real feelings and messages into lyrics — whether it’s love, struggle, motivation, or spiritual insight. My pen game is strong because I write with intention and truth, not just filler words. Even if I’m not the one singing it, I know exactly how it should sound, and I bring that vision to life.

Q: What do you bring to a song?

A: I bring meaning, melody, and message — the kind of writing that connects with people on a soul level. Every song I write is built with emotion, intention, and feel, whether it’s a turn-up anthem, a deep R&B track, or a spiritual reminder. I know how to write words that stick, and create hooks that stay in your head. I also bring a strong sense of vocal flow and phrasing. At the end of the day, I bring that RedHits energy: lyrics that move people, melodies that hit, and songs that last.

Q: What's your typical work process?

A: My process starts with listening to the beat or concept the client provides. Once I get the vibe, I tap into the emotion, message, and style they’re aiming for — whether it’s a club track, a soulful piece, or something spiritual. I usually start with the hook to set the tone, then build verses around it to match the energy and story. Once the lyrics and melody are mapped out, I use Suno to create vocal references so the client can hear how it’s meant to be performed — even though I’m not a vocalist, I make sure the delivery and flow are clear and impactful. From there, I send the draft, get feedback, and tweak it if needed. I stay locked in until the client’s fully satisfied and the song feels authentic, powerful, and ready to record.

Q: Tell us about your studio setup.

A: I keep my setup simple but effective — just what I need to focus on writing hits and delivering clear references. I work from a home-based writing studio where I record high-quality vocal guides using software like Suno to demonstrate how the melodies and lyrics should be performed. Since I’m a songwriter (not a singer), this allows artists to clearly hear the vocal phrasing, emotion, and structure I intend for each song. My process is all about making sure the artist can feel the vision — even in the demo stage. Clean, structured, and ready to inspire your next vocal take. I may not have a full vocal booth, but I deliver songs that speak louder than gear ever could.

Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?

A: I’m inspired by artists and creatives who bring raw emotion, storytelling, and soul to their work. Writers like R Kelly, Ne-Yo, The-Dream, and Summer Walker showed me the power of pen game behind the scenes. Missy Elliott inspires me with her originality and fearless creativity. On the spiritual side, I’m influenced by artists like Yolanda Adams and Tasha Cobbs Leonard who know how to move spirits with music. I also respect producers and songwriters who push boundaries and create timeless music — like Rodney Jerkins, No I.D., and Timbaland. They remind me that great songs start with a vision and a vibe.

Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.

A: I mostly write hooks, verses, and full toplines over existing tracks. Artists and producers come to me when they have a beat and need catchy melodies, relatable lyrics, or a strong hook that brings the track to life. Whether it’s R&B, Hip-Hop, Gospel, or Spiritual music, I help shape the emotion and message of the song to make it hit home and stand out.
