About These Dreams Ain't Free:

Dreams don't work, unless YOU DO!Award winning music producer, artist, author, film director & Berklee College of Music Professor J.Rhodes is BACK with the sequel to the critically acclaimed These Beats Ain't Free. These Dreams Ain't Free picks up where its predecessor left off, but with a much more wide ranged perspective and educational scope. Volume 1 focused on giving the up and coming "bedroom producer" information and inspiration to make their "passion" their "paycheck". Volume 2 continues to expound on this but also speaks to the dreamer in any career field. It is a much more personal effort filled with stories that embody universal themes of hard work, purpose, presence and consistency. These themes and mantras cross over and transfer into any space or place.
