Gonna lay low for a while wit music. Meaning I won't be releasing shit. No, I'm not quitting, matter fact, I been working harder than ever on music lately. I literally work, come home, eat, and work on music 'til I have to sleep. But simply, instead of rushing out Lone Star (Or whatever it's titled down the road, may have a different concept by then.) I'm gonna take the next year, year and a half doing nothing musically but perfecting my craft. Improving my singing ability, obviously, but I'm also gonna be taking piano lessons and learning music theory fully, which will obviously tremendously improve my songwriting. I'm pleased wit my improvement, but am ultimately not satisfied wit what I'm putting out. It needs to be miles better. Drake did an interview where he was like "In today's age and through social media, you don't need major hype and a huge fanbase, if you release something amazing, the world will let you know. If you release a House Of Balloons (The Weeknd) or a PARTYNEXTDOOR, your music will speak loudly for you, the world will let you know.". And that really stuck wit me. Nobody ever let me know, and listening in the third person, I can see why. I'm releasing shit that's simply average at best. But then I listen to House Of Balloons, which was The Weeknd's first mixtape, first official release, and it's a fucking masterpiece. That's the same type of quality I need to be producing before I release another record. Point blank period. It's not like I have a fanbase to disappoint wit a lack of new music, but when I finally return wit new music, it'll be shit that nobody can ignore.
God damn...I do have a buzz...but I just feel like there is so much in life for me to see and do... I feel like iv experienced almost nothing of what life has to offer....iv been single for almost 2 years....and I feel like If I left my family and friends behind and went out and tried everything new I could I would completely be so successful. ....and to tell you the truth I am decently successful for a high school drop out....I run a business for people and get paid fairly well with a retirement plan and vacation at 25.. All of which I built in from nothing...but I feel like I have so much more to achieve...but I feel completely lost on where I should start....I'm more successful then iv ever been in life but yet iv never felt so lost :-??
