It has been awhile since I've been here and I dare say, it seems there have been enough changes here that I'm not sure I know my way around.  Is there a resource on here that explains some of the recent changes?

I'm getting a demo done to pitch to a Nashville artist. Wish me luck!

Thanks for the like @Peggy

Hey, Peggy! So, the main purpose of me being here, is to create awareness for my music. (The availability of it for sale online, and my YouTube channel, "The lownotes Art Show.") I've been talking with Lisa, and now John. On Lisa's advice, I've compiled my YouTube channel's videos into a Blog. John also gave me some helpful advice. I'm going to slow down a bit on the showcase posts, and drip feed some of my favorite stuff there. It would be awesome if you decided to do something "lownotes" through your YouTube channel. (I didn't even know it existed!) I'm going to check it out, now. You guys are awesome!          lownotes

It's been awhile. Hope all are well here. I see we still have some old timers and also new comers here now!

Hey guys and gals! I'm happy to report that I recently got word of one of my hip hop tracks making it onto an ESPN program called Outside The Lines(USA). I can't confirm it on my ASCAP account yet but if it turns out to be true, this will be my very first cable TV placement! 🤞

I'll keep you's posted!

Been trying to post in the chat with an hour and it won't let me.

Currently working on a track for an independent artist. She specifically asked for a production similar to "Funny When" by Mickey Shiloh(lyrical content not suitable for children, btw). Its quite a challenge to say the least, since I've never produced anything in that sort of style, before. Funny how these unexpected challenges introduce us to a whole new world, broadening the borders of our creativity. So stressful, tho..lol

I've lost my brains! My flash drive with all my lyrics is MIA...Ugh!  Now I have to find the external hard drive with them on it. 💩  👀 

I can't seem to figure out how to post a song for critique.

My beat store is up and running! Roymega Productions Check it out and lmk what you guys think!

I'll be out of the loop for a few days. Hope everyone has safe Holidays!

I will be releasing my first single on 1st December 2017. It is called Heroes and will be released via CD Baby to all the usual outlets.

I am hoping to have it played on an internet based radio show on the 29th November, so thought the release a couple of days later might help.

I have updated my website and I am using Twitter a lot more, so please join myself and John, Mahesh etc over there.

I just wanted to say, that I am not reviewing and critiquing at the moment, as I am trying to focus on my own tracks and every time I listen to a song a member has posted recently, I have got a fresh batch of inspiration and written more of my own songs. To stop this happening, I have made this difficult decision. I hope to be able to get back to this again soon and appreciate that you still comment on my own topics. Cheers R.

I have taken an unintended break from all things songwriting. Life has just stepped up the pace a bit since school started.  This is a busy time of year for me--working, sports, school events and other.  I hope to get back to critiquing and submitting new songs once routine finds its placement.  Also, haven't forgotten "the project", just trying to wrap my brain around how to go about it.  Looking for that happy place where my environment is settled and I can hunker down for a good chunk of thinking time--the best products come with that thinking time.  My apologies for those lyrics and songs I may have missed out on.  Hopefully, there will be time in the future where I can play catch up!

Hi all... apologies if I haven't responded to any of your comments. I have posted on a couple of topics, but haven't done anything about my own stuff.

Just to say, I lost my dad last week. It was unexpected and a bit of a shock and I thought I would deal better by taking myself away from my music (as I normally write sad, depressing music), but in reality, I feel like I needed to express myself and work through this with my music.

I will respond to any comments you have given me, but bear with me as I work my way through them.

Thanks R.

Sorry guys, I am going to be off the site for a little while. I had a really shit couple of days and I need to get my head together before responding to anyone or posting.

Its true what they say.... life really is a bitch.

Cut Her Some Slack

By Dawn Robertson

May/2017

From a beautiful land 

Way before time

A vision was had

That a woman was right

For eternity following 

Men would truly try

To tear down that woman

And make her cry

Men always thinking

A woman's easier to control

Without self confidence 

Without friends or her goals

But the contrary realism

Is far distant from that

They just want their man

To love them back

Woman sacrifice and go without

And not say a word

They keep things inside

And bury their hurt

Until one day she just lets it out

Often years in the making 

She purges the pain

Often crying and shaking

Then she is good again

And just carries on

Creating a better life for others

With her wings on

So the next time you feel

That your woman is crazy

You must think again

She is far from lazy

Just take five minutes

And cut her some slack

Let her know you see her struggles

And that you have her back

You will become even closer

And she will love you even more

There's nothing better to have

Then a woman you adore

She will glow like the heavens

And make you feel complete

Because she is born to love

And you are born to receive

Anyone remember me????

Woo hoo! My Collabs sent me from the 3,000's to 278th in nation at Reverbnation. #1 for my city
