9.11.26 NEWSFLASH:

I just felt like posting something in honor of 9/11 victims. It’s a day that I will never forget. The vivid memories of being in my Sophomore year homeroom and hearing people screaming in the hallways as they heard the news. At first we thought it was some kind of prank, but quickly realized it was not. Some of my classmates immediately ran outside to call their parents who would travel to NY for meetings at the WTC. Sadly, a few of those parents did not pick up their calls that day…

God Bless all of the affected families and God bless America, for, in all of our controversies and imperfections we have always been a beacon of hope and opportunity in this difficult world we live in. May we never forget 9/11.

8.14.26 NEWSFLASH:

MD’s debut EP, consisting of 6 songs, will drop before end of 2026. You never know, maybe a music video and release party to go along with it. All this for shits and giggles…

7.26.26 NEWSFLASH:

METTLE DETECTOR is a “ZERO A.I.” project and will always remain so.

All music, production, lyrics, videos, art, & any other creative process is 100% free of A.I. (Artificial Intelligence).

Songs are recorded on GarageBand, lyrics written and sung by me, and videos recorded on iPhone then edited in iMovie. One day I will learn to use analog and be even snobbier about it!

More on the behind the scenes process coming soon. Now, here is my attempt at cartooning:
