1
00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:04,360
Speaker 1: Direct from Hollywood with Ryan Seacrest. Steve Lacey's sophomore album,

2
00:00:04,480 --> 00:00:07,040
Speaker 1: Gemini Wrights, ended up changing his life thanks to its

3
00:00:07,200 --> 00:00:10,719
Speaker 1: viral smash Bad Habit, which is one of ten songs

4
00:00:10,720 --> 00:00:12,480
Speaker 1: that made the final cut for its track list. A

5
00:00:12,520 --> 00:00:14,840
Speaker 1: relatively small collection of songs from now and particularly in

6
00:00:14,880 --> 00:00:17,280
Speaker 1: this streaming age, but that's not because of a lack

7
00:00:17,320 --> 00:00:21,119
Speaker 1: of material anything, but Steve tells another magazine he wrote,

8
00:00:21,120 --> 00:00:23,639
Speaker 1: produced and recorded more than three hundred songs for the project,

9
00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:26,840
Speaker 1: and he advisedes all aspiring artists to follow suits, saying,

10
00:00:27,240 --> 00:00:29,040
Speaker 1: I felt like the studio was at jim I was

11
00:00:29,040 --> 00:00:30,960
Speaker 1: getting my represent I made a bunch of crap to

12
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:33,240
Speaker 1: get to this. I meet new musicians and they'll ask

13
00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:35,879
Speaker 1: what do you do, and I say, you gotta make trash.

14
00:00:35,880 --> 00:00:38,760
Speaker 1: You can't skip the trash. You can't just conceptualize a

15
00:00:38,760 --> 00:00:41,920
Speaker 1: good idea. You gotta make some bs first in order

16
00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:43,479
Speaker 1: to get there. I made a lot of it to

17
00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:46,040
Speaker 1: get to this. I've got some fun demos though. That

18
00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:49,280
Speaker 1: habits out now, that's Direct from Hollywood.
