Virginia Beach, VA artist Clayt comes through to deliver his latest offering, New Paint. The 6-track project has 6 different producers and only one guest feature from fellow VA native Masego for their standout collaboration, Third Eye.
The premise for the New Paint EP began early in 2012. Through mutual connections, Clayt found himself having meetings and recording in Timbaland’s home studio located in Virginia Beach, VA. Working with one of the engineers there, Clayt showed he clearly had potential as a lyricist, so much so that the engineer even stated to him over the phone, “you got it”. However, as with most things in the entertainment industry, this was followed by a “but”. The engineer told Clayt he felt like he needed to find his own sound and develop more as an artist before he could present him to Timbo. Feeling like he was so close to the opportunity that would change his life, these were obviously tough words to hear, but they were needed.
