JWA Diaries: Don’t Look Back’s Letter

There’s a feeling of absolute euphoria I felt the first time I heard what I sounded like on a final mix. A joy that had me jumping with pure abandon because I was experiencing a childhood fantasy coming to life.

I feel like I’ve been living in a dream-like state for the last 2 months trying to hold on to that precious feeling of joy and being grateful. Grateful that I’ve had the privilege to make my own original music and being happy with what I’ve made. I’m grateful in particular to Feziekk for not only making this beautiful production and allowing me to be on it, but in the amount of grace and guidance he provided in allowing me to find myself in it. To NVMI whose added instrumentation with his guitar solo added so much warmth, depth and dimension to Don’t Look Back and finally to all the incredible people who were constructive and guided me in trying to figure out this process for the first time. 

This JWA project has been a journey of great discovery for me creatively and personally. I still can’t believe that I’m able to share this journey with you; I’m petrified, nervous and so excited about it. If you’re coming with me, be open to surprises, allow yourself to be giddy and most importantly, don’t look back! It’s going to be a fun ride. 

Sincerely,

Njakes
