Every Saturday for the past two months I’ve been teaching audio production as part of a privately funded youth outreach program. Most of the kids that I was working with were 9 to 12 years old (somehow I ended up working with all the younger kids). By the end of the classes, there were two songs that I really liked which were a product of myself and a 10 year old boy named Tyree. Originally, we recorded Tyree’s vocals over the song but neither Tyree nor myself were satisfied with what we got, so I decided to add acapellas and edit them to fit. One of the acapellas is The Jackson 5, ‘I Want You Back’ and the other is Three Times Dope, ‘Once More’. The young man in the photo above is Tyree.
