  1. Hey guys! I've noticed a lot of you are looking for feedback and in-depth help with your own lyrics you've been posting in the comments. I'm now hosting monthly one-on-one songwriting workshops via my Patreon. Check it out if you're interested (link to Patreon in bio) and I'd be happy to help! Keep writing! 🙂

  2. I agree with everything you said but one thing and no hate please but I believe right when you’re starting off writing for your audience is useless because when you’re just learning you get more ideas and inspiration when you write for yourself and the pressure when you’re a beginner of writing for an audience I feel like me make people quit just an unpopular opinion

  3. You know what ms. Emma?….
    I'm now having a problem again not because of my cousin who gave me that constructive criticism 5 yrs. ago but now because of my so annoying nephew from my big sister who always give me that destructive criticism…. Now here's the story about that okay…. He's only 10 yrs. old and just into basketball and online games like my other youngest cousins and he's not into music so. everytime I'm watching my favorite shows or listening to my favorite songs he always give that useless feedback by bringing me that thumbs down now I know. it's just a joke to him but for me it's really annoying and now I'm so worried about his comment to the songs that I've made…. 'cause it's like an unrespectful moment to the oldies like me as his Uncle so. now I'm wishing for that kid to don't annoy me and respect our whole family and that's the story

  4. I've been listening to your vids for a while; The idea that the world wants my specific point of view is intriguing. Other artists have all ready written songs and my view does not compete with there views… Gives me the idea Im wanted or have a place in the song writing world.

  5. Okay so I kinda have a lack of self confidence right now, and I need to know if this is actually good, so here is my chorus, please someone reply,
    "I kick The ball up the feild
    With all the girls at my heels,
    this is how winning feels?
    Ah woah oh oh oh"

  6. Cocaine
    [Verse1]
    This is toxic,unbelievable
    I'm Imprisoned in an Unrequited love
    But i can't get u out of my fuckin mind
    Cocaine's by my side when you're not
    Brain's getting dizzier every step u take
    Cocaine's by my side,Cocaine's by my side

    [Pre-chorus]
    Sometimes i feel you read my mind
    You come in and destroy my thoughts

    [Chorus]
    Mama I never said i'm grown
    Take me back to my bed
    tell me the story of blackswan
    Mama all night i drink alcohol
    Even i've taken cocaine
    But i can't run out of this Brawl

    [Verse2]
    This is creepy,like my past
    Just Had sweet dreams of you and i
    You were like all i imgaine about you
    Please change for me,don't say that and love me back
    Oh Please don't burn me before i completely crack
    Cocaine's by my side,Cocaine's by my side

    [Pre-chorus]
    Sometimes i feel you read my mind
    You come in and destroy my thoughts
    Turn around and be loving me back

    [Chorus]
    Mama I never said i'm grown
    Take me back to my bed
    tell me the story of blackswan
    Mama all night i drink alcohol
    Even i've taken cocaine
    But i can't run out of this Brawl

    [Pre-chorus]
    You come in and destroy my thoughts

    [Chorus]
    Mama I never said i'm grown
    Take me back to my bed
    tell me the story of blackswan
    Mama all night i drink alcohol
    Even i've taken cocaine
    But i can't run out of this Brawl

  7. hmm I’ll try.

    Always told to never lie
    Always told to drop the dime
    Hiding all these thoughts
    Replacing this slot
    Until It gets dropped.

    Closet full of empty mind
    Holding in what’s left behind
    Let it out
    Spreading south.
    Now everything’s dropping down

    Should I have left it all alone?
    Save me from this lifeless hope
    Keep it cool. Keep it safe
    Nope never mind, it’s way too late

    Life’s broken apart, holding on for your part.
    Seems like I’m fine but did you seem to think twice.
    Twice is enough, no it is not.
    Now I’m just left in this knot-tied mess
    Take a guess
    I shouldn’t have said.

    honestly I’m like just trying so yea

  8. Can you do a kind of beginner's guide to Pro Tools or something like lite 9 live. Actually im not a native English Speaking person . Most Tutorials for Recording advice are somehow more for people with knowledge what i am not…

  9. I HONESTLY HAVE 5,6 MINUTES TO LISTEN TO SONG THAT LONG LIKE BAD APPLE FOR EXAMPLE BY TOUHOU AND I LIKE LISTENING TO 5,6 MINUTES SONG VOCALOIDS SONGS ARE ALSO 5 MINUTES AND HALF ALMOST 6 MINUTES LONG SO I CAN'T AGREE WITH YOU EMMA ON THAT. THOUGH I HATE THAT THE RADIO DOESN'T PLAY THAT LONG MUSICS WHICH I'M SAD ABOUT.sorry for the caps I'm not yelling.

  10. So while watching this I tried to write something it's really just something that popped into my head so yeah any feedback (criticism aswell) is wanted

    I don't know what I am
    Love and gender is a scam
    People take peoples rights
    People make people fight

    I don't know what I am
    I just need a plan
    I'll run away
    I'll find a space
    For those like us
    Completely built on trust
