Producing Pills

For those who know me, know music is a part of me. One of my closets friends actually refers to it as his "second heart." I know you all are wondering where this is coming from; moreover, I was talking with some friends a couple days ago about composing, DJing, etc. Now don't get me wrong, I love sampling and what artist can do with it, but actually seeing where songs come from is amazing. Then today, a good friend since middle school hit me with some links that I've somehow overlooked. They are under musical prodigy Ryan Leslie's YouTube channel. He displays work and mastermind that goes behind his works leaving you simply speechless. From the use of bongos to a plastic cup with some change in it, dude is as he says, "They can't place me in a box." Watching the composition from start to finish (including singing) was more than a sight to see, it was a message to all that, do what you feel and comes natural. Just go in there (whatever "there" is to you) and simply make music. Whether it's in a literal sense or figuratively. If there was one thing in the world I wish I could do is compose music. But instead I compose in medicinal knowledge. The music I can and will make with your heartbeat, the clicking of prescription bottles, the swishing from mixing compounds, the beep from your EKG, and the list goes on will be my beat machine in which I produce countless hits of life preservation. People that know me know that I know words to songs like they were Bible scriptures, I take that into my future profession. But the key is is that I don't just memorize lyrics, I get into the beat as if I were that producer or rapper or singer or lead vocalist and recite it as if it flow liked I was freestyling. I look for what that song means to me whether it's just a good time or world issues and take that into account when I study for pharmacy. I may not get a shitload of A's, but I garuntee sweet music as you leave my area of work, whether it be retail, institutional, or a simple phone call. Peace.
