Im spending my first summer in Chicago and will be here til Labor Day. And I really cant believe how people hype that shithole of a city New York when Chicago is one of the best cities on the face of this earth. I never get tired of this place.
I remember in 2012 Kaytranada and I got booked to do two shows for a total of $400. We split it and had to share the same hotel rooms. Walked away with like $60. We was just happy to play shxt from SoundCloud in front of people. Humbling every time I think about that.
