Chief Technology Officer

This track comes from the overlap of beach life and CTO life — morning surf sessions bleeding into architecture reviews. It tackles The full weight and absurd glory of being CTO of Folly Beach - the title sounds corporate but the reality is beautifully unconventional. The lyrics get specific — "The Unconventional Technologist who always has their back" — because personal tracks on Majik's are personal for real, not performatively. The funk production matches the energy of the confession. It hits swagger and proud, in that order. Every personal track in the catalogue comes from a real moment, a real feeling, a real person. This one is no exception.
