WASANII β EPISODE 1: THE SESSION THAT NEVER HAPPENED
Tonight's session was supposed to be simple.
The artist calls to confirm we're still recording. I tell him I'll be at the studio in an hour.
I arrive at Big Paper Inc, call him from the parking lot, and find out he's still at a video shoot in Kileleshwa.
He's with some ladies and wants them to come to the session.
I warn him about distractions.
He insists.
Then, while he's on his way to the studio, a friend calls him about a party in Kilimani.
And just like that... the studio session disappears from the plans.
He turns around and decides he'll come tomorrow.
"The producer will understand."
So I wait.
Until 3AM.
Making beats
Sleeping on the sofa.
Doing press-ups.
Calling him.
No answer.
Eventually, I walk out of the studio.
This is WASANII β a series about the real experiences, frustrations, funny moments and unexpected situations that happen between producers and artists.
No filters. No perfect industry stories.
Just Bazooqa and the reality of being a producer.
Episode 1.
