Just wondering for anyone who works in a pro studio or knows people in pro studio settings often...is the typical process to record the hook before the verses or vice versa? Obviously the hook is most important so do you record it right away since presumably there is maximum energy and the absolute start of a session or is it more common practice to do the verses first and hit the hook after since you might be more in that natural flow/groove of the beat leading off of a verse than you might otherwise be by jumping right into a hook from the get-go. I already know about flying hooks and stuff so I'm just wondering does the flown hook get recorded before the verses or not for most singles recorded in a pro setting? And what is the rationale/logic behind the answer to this? Thanks!
