I wanted to get this one up weeks ago when I first heard it but I wasn’t sure if it was a leak of a single or a b-side that would never be released. Anyway, the song is on the charts and is currently climbing and climbing as you’d expect from another collab between Em’ and ‘Dre. It took me about 3-4 times to record through the rap section before I felt comfortable enough to post it. I realize it’s not perfect, but I want you to get a raw track from me rather than some doctored (pun intended) up studio version like you get from Tyler Ward or others. Tyler is a gifted musician in his own right, but don’t kid yourself if you think he is singing into that mic and recording the video all at once. He spends hours recording his tracks and then creating video after the fact in sync with his studio recording. That’s neither here nor there, back to the song.
I ran my guitar straight into the mixer along with the new condenser mic and mixed it all in garage band like normal. I’m happy with the end result and I am happy to provide a tutorial to everyone for this as well. I realize it’s been far too long since I did a “real” tutorial for the songs I play. But I am hoping that my fans are evolving enough in their playing that they are able to follow along with my down strokes since i generally show the guitar in the frame.
Enjoy the song, the original is great. The cover needs life support…
