When You Make Music, You are Speaking to Humanity: Bussin’ Essen

Bussin’ Essen is an artist who makes it a point to touch people’s lives. He wants to make music that makes a difference and memorable impact. He relies on the oldest and purest forms of his craft: great lyrics, a catchy melody, and natural talent.

Music is a universal language and ancient art. Before we could speak, the music spoke for us. Bussin’ believes that this tradition continues, and it is one of his goals to use it in his work. Whether it be recalling memories or reaffirming visions, songs are the stories of people’s lives. Bussin doesn’t just write music based on his own experiences but those of people from all walks of life.

The goal is to create music that will appeal to almost everyone, not just a target audience. As music is a universal language, Bussin’ believes it should have a universal audience. He wants to share a sound that can get one and all out on the dance floor and that same song playing on repeat in their memories.

It’s all about speaking to people in a way they can understand. And music isn’t just a form of entertainment; it is equally therapeutic. We live in a volatile world emerging from a global pandemic yet seeing a score of new concerns. Music can make a big difference for those who don’t know how to express what they are feeling or do not have anyone to talk to. This is the type of work Bussin’ wants to release.

There is a big difference between putting out an excellent track for commercial interest versus writing something very personal for the art’s sake. Even if only 20 people hear that song instead of two million, the only thing Bussin’ is concerned about is if the track touched their lives in some way. He calls those who pursue a musical career for fame and fortune “posers,” as this industry is about much more. To be a professional musician is not about oneself; it is about the audience and humanity.
