So, I got this crazy idea stuck in my head the other day. I was listening to “Escape Plan” by Travis Scott, and then a DD Osama track came on shuffle. And I thought, “What if these two made a song together?” It sounded wild, but I couldn’t shake the idea. So I decided, why not try to make it happen myself?
First, I grabbed a clean acapella of Travis Scott’s vocals from “Escape Plan.” It wasn’t easy to find a good quality one, but after some digging, I found a decent version. Then came the hard part – finding a DD Osama verse that would fit the vibe. I spent hours listening to his tracks, trying to find something that would match the energy of “Escape Plan.” Eventually, I stumbled upon his song “40s N 9s,” and one of the verses just clicked. It had that raw, gritty sound that I was looking for.
Next, I fired up my trusty old digital audio workstation. I’m no professional producer, but I know my way around the basics. I imported both acapellas and started experimenting. I chopped up the DD Osama verse, rearranged some parts, and stretched others to make it fit the tempo and rhythm of “Escape Plan.” It was like solving a musical puzzle, and it took a lot of trial and error.
- Laid down the “Escape Plan” instrumental as the foundation.
- Placed the Travis Scott vocals over it. No surprise, they fit perfectly.
- Wrangled that DD Osama verse into place. This took the most time, but it was worth it.
- Added some basic effects – a little reverb here, a little delay there – just to give it some extra polish.
After a few more hours of tweaking and fine-tuning, I finally had something that resembled a cohesive track. It wasn’t perfect, but it was definitely something. I bounced the track down to an MP3 and gave it a listen. I gotta say, it sounded pretty damn cool. The energy of Travis Scott combined with the rawness of DD Osama created something unique and unexpected.
The Final Touches
I played the track for a few friends, and they were all blown away. They couldn’t believe I had made it myself. Their positive feedback gave me the confidence to share it online. I uploaded it to SoundCloud, just to see what the reaction would be. I didn’t expect much, but to my surprise, it started getting plays. People were actually digging it. Some liked the blend, some thought it was a mess, but hey, at least it got people talking.
This whole experience taught me that sometimes, the craziest ideas can turn into something cool. It also showed me that with a little bit of effort and creativity, anyone can make something unique. I’m not gonna lie, it was a lot of work, but it was also a lot of fun. And who knows, maybe one day Travis Scott and DD Osama will actually collab. Until then, I’ll keep dreaming and keep making music.
