The Hidden Folder

In this episode of the Sound Dialect podcast, the Udie Chima shares a personal story from their early years as a music producer, focusing on the struggle of finding acceptance for his authentic sound.

He describes maintaining two folders of beats: one with conventional, safe tracks for family and friends, and another with unique, personal beats for select listeners. Over time, the host felt the tension between these two identities and the burden of expectations.

Eventually, he began sharing his more authentic music with everyone, breaking free from the pressure to conform and truly expressing their artistic vision.

The episode also highlights an upcoming Lab event, a space for musicians find support to courageously share their inner voices.
