They Call Me Ray Ray

Born in a small country town, I (Ray Ray) moved to Denver, Colorado before I was even to the stage of crawling. I discovered at the young age of 4 that I had a keen interest for music. Through my adolescent years I participated in any choir and/or drama classes that were available to me, alongside any other classes that might help me become the best performer that I could be.

It wasn't until age 16 when it was decided that I would begin writing my own lyrics. This way I could see if all my hard work might pay off someday. Of course, being a beginner, the words I was putting on paper were not turning out how I had hoped. I didn't let this get me down. I had a strong understanding that great work takes time and I was willing to put in that time to create something that myself and the rest of the world could enjoy. So I continued to write and to perfect my work. I don't believe that I have reached perfection yet nor am I sure that I ever will. However I will spend each and every day, practicing, to become the best me that I can be.

I am currently working on my debut album titled "Smiley Face Emoji". I do intend on sharing the release date, tracklist and links with the Steemit community as soon as I have all of this information available.I hope to find a strong sense of community within Steemit and I am excited to share any of my future work with you.

For the time being, I am going to post one my older songs. This song is Hip Hop/Rap. I veered more toward the Pop and Adult Contemporary so this will be the only song of this genre that you hear come from me. The reason I am sharing this song is because it is a true story that took a lot for me to put down on paper. It is about my older and younger brothers that have both passed away. I hope you like the song!

Yeah it is experimental. I'm not sure how many happy go lucky albums there are out but my plan is to make one that will be remembered for a long time. I'm just going for that feel good vibe and i think I've done a decent job so far but i'll leave that up to the community to decide. It is very exciting, the whole process has been mind blowing (a lot more hard work than I thought) but I'm just going to keep working to better my music.

Thank you for the comment. I'll keep everyone posted about a release date. Probably not until 2018.

I'm glad you finally got on here. I've been trying to get you onto steemit since not long after I discovered it. I hope to see you getting involved with the Open Mics and such with people like @papa-pepper as I know you would be good at them and both you and the community would enjoy it.

Oh and as I told you I've actually shared that video of yours a couple of times myself.

I tell people it is based upon things that happened in your life and thus why it clearly has real emotion and anger in it. I know that is not your current style, but it is still a great piece of work.

I also think if you stick with it you could end up potentially turning into one of those steemit based celebrities every one is hoping for.
