In 2017, I worked with the Los Angeles After-School All-Stars (ASAS) to produce a musical collaboration between ASAS and OMG! Cameras Everywhere. OMG is a non-profit that gathers the top video & music producers in Los Angeles to write songs and do a music video with kids.
Together we created a song called, 'Here in America,' with the help of Diplo, Benny Blanco and Ryan Tedder. We spent the day songwriting, playing games and recording in one of Michael Jackson's recording studios in Hollywood. This was an incredibly special experience for the kids and for me. The song we wrote featured powerful lyrics from first-generation American kids singing about their experience growing up in the inner-city of Los Angeles.
