The Magic of Melody: Centric on ‘Do Time’ and Future Projects

Centric is a music composer and record producer and has joined forces for the first time with Grenadan singer-songwriter CJae on the new track “Do Time. ” This track fuses Afrobeat and R&B, giving the audiences a chance to see the compatibility between the two artists.

The electronic production is in amazing synergy along with the soulful R&B touch for the song where the additional high pitch catchy hook is perfectly sung by CJae.

“As for inspiration, yes music can come from anywhere but when I get inspiration to create, what I do is I map out basically the architecture of it in my head and then build it from there we had an interview with CJae and he is pretty much so talented when it comes to songwriting, he wrote the record he usually gets where I take the melody emotionally we just have good synergy.

Thus, “Do Time” gives listeners the first sneak peek of the upcoming joint album, *Redlight*, combining Afrobeat and R&B in unique ways. In this interesting interview, I focused in understanding his creativity, his journey in music and what his fans should expect from him in the near future.
