The only universal language that the whole world understands is music.

With music, you don't have to understand the language or the process of making music to love it.

- All one has to do is feel the music; even hard-of-hearing people can enjoy music by

feeling the vibrations of a song to understand the rhythm and enjoy it.

- Music is endless; there are only so many notes and chords in the world, but there are so

many different variations that can be used.

o There is always going to be something for someone, from genres like Indie, Rock,

Pop, K-pop, R&B, Rap, and even classical music.

o The best thing about music is that you don't have to like one specific genre;

you've got the freedom to choose what it is you love to listen to.

- Making of music is such an inspirational process. like to think of music-making as a

music sandwich.

o There are so many different layers in song-making/writing.

o First, you start with a rhythm (beats per minute), and then from there, you find the

key you want your song to be in; after that, you create the harmonies and the

melody of the music that will be consistent throughout the song.

- Finally, my favorite part is the lyrics. Lyrics are the meat in the music sandwich; they are

what differentiate every song.

o You must make sure the lyrics flow, rhyme, and make people feel something. I

wish more people understood all the magic that goes into making music and the

process of it all.
- Everyone would fall in love with music so much more complicatedly.
