(money problems)

It’s finally complete,

It took a while but it’s finally complete. 

It’s been the better part of a year.

The first few tracks were quite easy and simple to make.

But after a while I started to get more detailed with what I was doing.

So I took my time to do my work.

Also there was a bit of time where I was distracted and not able to continue with the music but I am now fully back with my craft. 

If you have read to this point I congratulate you for your patience. 

Also if you are hearing my brand of instrumentals for the first time.

I hope that the track you are listening to eases your mind and relaxes your soul. 

And if you’re just looking for a banger.

I got you too. 

Anyhow long story short I hope you enjoy the album.

Welcome to the end of the text.

And the beginning…..

To the rest of the credits.

But now I am fully committed to FL studio)
