WE NEVER GOT TO THE POWERPOINT

Family, tonight moved in the spirit. I had a whole lesson planned and we never opened it. We run it next Tuesday.

What we did instead: Chris Hodges and I walked you through the Chicago week. The Obama Center, the Soul Train Awards, and our own room that Thursday night. Then the conversation went where it needed to go.

Five things to keep.

1. A song is not finished until the room reacts. If it is supposed to make them cry and nobody cries, keep working.

2. Your one job as a dope artist: be on time and be easy to work with.

3. Producers produce people. Artists have to be producible.

4. Have your 30 second speech ready. You can have all the credits and still sound weird.

5. Success is a byproduct of great relationships.

Homework. Write your 30 second speech: who you are, what you make, what you need. Record it and post it under this post. Then reply to one other person's.

Next Tuesday, 5 PM PT, kosine.co/class. Bring somebody.
