    As Cyreides said above, depends on the day. Sometimes I wake up and write for a bit, do whatever I need to do, come back and write more haha. Sometimes I never write and just touch up vocals, mixing, etc. Sometimes I feel like it's a beat-making day. Never know, but I do know whatever I feel like music-wise that day, usually about 4 or 6 hours. Sometimes I even stay up for f---ing days writing and recording, writing and recording lmao.

    Depends on what is going on musically with me. Since I'm working on my debut project, I'm in full fledged writing mode. From April-July I made nothing but beats and just got the tracklist finalized. Out of 16 tracks, I have 8 written so far. And I'm just gonna keep going, with recording tossed somewhere in the middle. I'm setting a recording deadline for October.

    It also just depends on my mood and my mental health. I can exhaust myself writing song after song for days then not touch that s--- for at least a week. Same goes for producing.

    For sure, gettin' burned out is real as f---. Sucks, but it's a reality.
