Aging Out, the song
- by Denise Tucker of Tucker Creations:
In the early hours, one sleepless morning, awakening rattled with anxiety, uncertain about what’s next, the lyrics for my song Aging Out appeared in my head. I’m an artist and words are part of my creative expression. These lyrics express who I was, and who I’ve become. Many doors have closed. People aren’t listening. Staying relevant, making an impact, creating a legacy, appears a bit uncertain today. Feeling fragile, resistant, righteous, and up for the challenge to do what I know to do! My song is timely. I represent the sixty+ age group and we are the most vulnerable. My song Aging Out stands for what’s possible by empowering boldness, greatness, being unconstrained with the resounding finale that I’m not a victim… NOT ME!
The song bridges age gaps by including the raw hip-hop rap element. Rap vocalist, Stevario aka Chris Wind, EMA. Chris was motivated to bring his talent and unique cadence to the project with reverence, respect and personal connection. The mesmerizing, inspiring and unstoppable vocalist and songwriter Ingrid Smith, knew the song was hers the moment she heard it. Frank Starchak Productions mixed sound, instrumentals and his musical expertise brilliantly creating relatedness to all genders, age and ethnic groups - profoundly expressed in both English and Spanish.

It is so exciting to be a professional artist after so many years of using my creativity in business ventures. My artistic spirit is generous and has been on overdrive. Joyfully, I make art everyday! Blessed with a cornucopia of ideas in my curly redhead, I’ve emerged as a whimsical mixed medium artist! Anything is possible as I sketch on paper, paint on canvas, create with recycled objects and discuss my worldview with my unique characters. A quirky, outspoken, unstoppable risk taker, I am Tucker. Welcome to my world!
