Adapt Or Die

cool Saturday the 9th of August 2025 and you know what's gonna be the reason why you're not able to effectively become the artist that you've always wanted to wanted to be like what's gonna be the reason why you fell and again I'm not asking that question hypothetically

0:00

nor am I asking that question rhetorically nor am I really asking that question for there to be any answer in particular. Like the reason why I ask that question

is because I've often meditated on it, right, myself. And I've often directed that question towards myself as well. Because again, a friend of mine once effectively said that once, you know, one passes through a specific threshold whether it is through timing or through age,

the chances of them becoming a particularly big or massive global superstar when it comes to like being a rap music, a rap music star or a rap music artist, effectively just doing those down into oblivion. And, you know, I've always wondered that.

And I guess, you know, what is it really? Is it really that? Because there have been a couple of examples that have defined, you that have defied, to a certain extent, that way of thinking. And I guess I'm here to ask myself that question again,

because there have been people that, and there are still people, whom I look at on a regular basis, effectively doing whatever it is that they're trying to do to effectively push forward and succeed, but I feel as though time has really

kind of like passed them by. Not in the sense of like, the opportunity is late, but it's like the amount of catching up that they need to do when it comes to technology, when it comes to understanding how music gets promoted, how music gets sold nowadays.

They are really, really, really far behind. And it's not to say that people cannot race their way to the present moment or cannot race their way to the point in which they kind of like get to, you know, they even speed past us. It's just that the appreciation for kind of like

keeping up to date with everything is, you know, is felt upon the people that do not realize how much work they need to do to kind of like stay on top of things when it comes to kind of like you know um becoming a rap star.
