Composition Diary

Friday, May 25th, 2018

I am working on a pop/rap song to an instrumental with a group.
In my group, there is myself and three others, Lina, Manny, and Tamara. For our song,
Lina is our rapper and the rest of us are singing. We have so far come up

with the rap and a few words to sing in between her verses.
This week, we are working on coming up with more lyrics for our chorus.

This week our group is working on, coming up with more
lyrics for our chorus. We are confident with what we have already come up
with, but we are worried about the chorus. We have come up with some words
but not a tune that matches our instrumental. This is mostly all we have to work
on and hopefully gets done soon.

Lavina Williams

Lavina Williams was very funny, confident, inspiring and passionate about music. She inspired me to work hard. Not only in music but in other areas too. Working hard not only gets you places but also helps you get a living. She also said to make the most of opportunities, which is what she did. She got to travel to places at a young age due to her talent and determination. Her talks and her advice did help me, to be myself, to be more confident, to work hard and to perform with passion.

My role in the group is playing the guitar and to harmonize. So far I'm working on all the parts, helping everyone get the melody and harmonies and helping them find their notes. The most difficult part from me is the transition from Hutia to Suka Suka, I need to make sure it flows.
