The "Gifted" label can be a gift and a curse. Can anyone else relate?
Shoutout to the healing journey...I made a song about it.

Also, just the act of writing my vision down helps hold me accountable to implement it.
I probably wrote this in early summer as I was making my most recent album. Stuck to those dates, too!💪🏾 #TIYL

I made "This Is Your Life" because yes, I wanted to... but I also needed to. Been an artist at heart since I could hold a pencil, and I've learned that Creatives MUST bring whatever's inside of us.
I'm glad to have others who've gladly joined in that journey.

Soul, good lyrics, vulnerability, dope beats, skits and a concept that sticks like day-old grits.

Life is beautiful. Embracing all of your humanity is beautiful. The joy, the grief, the growth, the pain, the laughter, the pride...all of it matters. So I put it in an album. This Is Your Life.

I wrote the song nearly a year ago, give or take. Now I'm reflecting on how it relates to me right now in this liminal space, as opposed to then.
That's the beautiful thing about music.

"Years ago I prayed to enlarge my territory
Now all I want is a peaceful path that's laid before me"
My mantra in this moment.

I made this song because sometimes I wanna opt out of all the BS that comes with "success" & "striving" and just be where I'm at.
It's named after Erykah Badu because that's the vibe the track gave me. And I love her music.

Still grateful. Seeing my album right after JID's on Bandcamp last year showed me that my supporters are DOPE.

"Island" is a rap song about dealing with and healing from hyperindependence. It's important to me and I'm proud of me for the growth, and for the courage to make a song about it.

"Gifted":
But move on, we grown now
Finding my way back home now
Life's a trip, I claim whatever baggage that I own now
Done made a few accomplishments, I guess I'm in my zone now
40+ and talking to myself in different tones now

This is a song about suffering + healing from hyperindependence. It's called "Island." Maybe some can relate. #TIYL

I love nature. I love self-reflection. I love horror.
This is a song combining all three. Check it out if that's your bag.
"Nature Walk" is out now.
