Creator to Creators S5 Ep 38 Spendit

To begin his career as a recording artist, Buffalo, New York, rapper Spendit has put out
“Hold Up,” a chiming, melodious single with some hard-edged, explicit street lyrics.
“That track, I feel like, it describes my life,” he said. “I’m always trying to get to some
money, and it’s an ever-changing world. I’m always trying to adapt.”
“Hold Up” is the lead single off his EP Check. Another single off the EP, “Grace,” has
also been released.
He said that when he got the beat from his brother, Akaey, he only had an hour to work
with it, and his first thought was, “I cannot attack this in an hour, and all I could think of
was life is moving too fast. Can you hold up?”
And with that, he realized, “Hold up. Wow, that’s really me.” And it turned out to be one
of the easiest songs he ever wrote.
Life movin’ too fast, can’t wait up, can’t hold up
Spend it, what’s the hold up, bands can’t fold up
Dropped out of college, she givin’ me brain, she givin’ me knowledge
Brand new coupe, no mileage, always flee, don’t need a stylist
He’s been writing for a few years but until this year he hadn’t made up his mind whether
to pursue it as a career.
