2/ When I make a song, every single thing in it is part of the emotional journey as it all came from me
So when an artist doesnโt produce, over 70% of the heart of the song has already been dictated by someone else
It just feels weird, anti-expression and inauthentic to me now
1/ I have no interest in listening to rappers who donโt make their own beats
I literally just canโt do it any more, the songs do not move me at all
When Iโm listening, I feel a severe disconnect from the track, the artist & the message, & itโs impossible for it to evoke emotion
I have the most ridiculous sample chop (and overall beat) ((and finished song)) ever created sitting on my laptop & I canโt wait to drop it and let people hear it ๐๐๐๐๐
1 year of no alcohol today
I barely drank anyway but it still sounds good lol
Iโm just ticking off my list of shit that makes me the best person I can be ๐๐๐
We take good health for granted
Being injured is so ass
Makes you FULLY realise you need to get the most out of life when you can
We owe it to ourselves
What my Whoop fails to realise is that I am obsessed with working
Telling me I should get 9 hours 20 minutes of sleep
Not a chance I am getting up as late as 8:15am
Iโmma be up til 2am again making moves
Sorry my G
Focusing on 1 thing at a time is a game changer
If you keep getting distracted put your phone away
Buy a timer
Challenge yourself to lock in for a set period of time e.g. 1 hour
You will level up crazy
But if you think about it for a minute and you realise that this is the case with you, and you find yourself loving an artist's production more than anything else, then at least go and check the credits or search for the song to find the producer(s), and go show them love ๐ซก
A lot of the music people listen to, especially in hip-hop, they're listening to because of the producer. They just don't know it. It just never really clicked with them, which is cool, not everyone is as invested in this as me or as some others deep in hip-hop.
If you're trying to do music or anything that involves a big goal then literally the better you become at it the better every else in your life becomes, your relationships, your situation, your mindset, everything
