Day 1 of me documenting my journey. A long way to go
Tapiwa Gwaze
Training for daring adventures. Looking for filmmakers and writers to document my victories and failures.
Today is the day 1 of my journey of creating my album.
The album is called "Fueled by Hope".
It is going to be released July 1st.
It has been a hard journey to get here but it has been fun.
So far we have 4 songs recorded.
Will we get to 9 songs before the album releases?
I think so.
You know, inspiration is a funny thing
It comes in spurts.
Coming and going as it pleases.
Making me feel like a genius in some moments
And a goofball other times.
How do I write songs?
I start with just writing powerful phrases
I am going uphill
What an adventure
Impossible is nothing
I am not going to quit.
And that can lead to a small song like this.
“I am going on a adventure
And when I am done
I will feel like I won.
But I have only just begun
My quest
To create the best ad agency
That anyone has ever seen.
I know that is crazy
But I believe
I believe”
Of course that is a very short song and there is more to make making songs.
You have to come up with a melody.
A chorus
And of course you need music
I am working with other artists and songwriters to create the songs on the album.
The album is coming out July 1st.
What is a new project that you are working on lately?
