I’m currently taking on new writing projects.
I specialize in narrative writing around hip-hop, music and culture, with experience writing articles, essays and YouTube-style storytelling.
I’m currently interested in working with YouTube creators, publications and brands on:
• YouTube scripts & video essays
• Music/culture articles
• Narrative storytelling
• Ghostwriting
• Newsletters
If you’re building something in music, culture or entertainment and need a writer who can find the larger story behind the subject, I’d love to connect.

If you’re a creator, publication, or brand looking for a writer who can bring a narrative perspective to music and culture, I’d love to connect.

Hip hop and culture writing is such a specific lane, and a smart one since so much of that content still gets written generically. What pulled you toward narrative storytelling over straight reviews or news coverage in that space?

Hello Contra, I just joined! Excited to see what I can do on this platform. I'm a technology journalist and a content writer. How's everyone doing?
Welcome to Contra Sead!
Okay so my discovery score was 26 last night. This morning it's 30. I haven't done much except for commenting on a post. How does the discovery score work, and what's the number I should aim for?
It varies slightly sometimes. I asked Contra directly about this situation, and it apparently shifts by up to 20 points as the system adjusts.
