Doing what feels right.
Being an independent artist right now is so confusing and difficult because it feels like you need to be your own marketing team, designer, PR, manager, etc but honestly Iām fucking done trying to do all that shit. My instinct is to do what I feel like doing now. If that means getting the urge to make a Instagram Reel with my song very randomly when Iām not even wearing pants thenā¦ thatās all everyone is getting. If it means I feel like doing a whole rollout (doubtful) then so be it!!!!! Iām trying to put my stock in the things I know Iām good at and genuinely enjoy doing. Thatās not marketing!!! And maybe me trying to do ~marketing is what was in my way the whole time.
I have never felt so much confidence in my artistic voice in my life. I hope itās felt by others and honestly, if it isnāt. I donāt gaf. Iāll be over here having fun

Itās scary to share your art, especially when you put so much of yourself in it
itās scary to be vulnerable and to be judged for the work that you do
But at the end of the day, you make your art for yourself, and people sharing in that is just a bonus
I am nervous and terrified whenever I release new music, whenever I get up on stage, whenever I put anything new into the world, especially when it has my face, my name or my voice attached to it
But honestly, as long as I like the work that Iāve done, then everything else is secondary

Iām still early on making music ā but this is it:
Iļø played like drums in middle school and then fell out of like āperformingā until adulthood when Iļø decided to start DJ-ing. Iļø loved that so much Iļø was like Iļø feel like Iļø can make my own things like 6 months ago and Iāve just been making small shitty 2 minute things for myself every day.
For me itās kinda meditative? Like usually no one hears the songs I am making (besides my partner) but itās really just for me. No clue if any of them will ever reach a record or be on Spotify, but Iļø feel like itās making me greater appreciate music in general.

Today decided to submit some of my songs to music review lives on Tik Tok for Promo.
i didnāt stay for most of them except for one.
When my song came on after a bunch of others songs ,that fit the predictable mold of the music out right now, the guy didnāt know what so say
I left him speechless
Then i remember that people didnāt know what to think of Bowie, Kanye, Travis, or Cudi.
I truly believe iām on track
anyways gonna keep making dope sh-
