This Guy Reminded Me

Monday the 30th of June 2025, literally I was on my way to the shop to get a drink. I got the shop and I bought myself a drink on my way back. I was on the phone whilst this was happening and literally, you know, kind of like somebody was walking up to them, up to me.

0:00

I knew them. And so as I was on my phone, I was on the phone speaking to a friend of mine, I warned my friend, I said,

oh, hold on a second, I'm about to meet someone, I'm about to bump into someone, they're about to talk to me, so just bear with me for a second. We got talking, we got talking and yeah, like effectively kind of like 15 minutes into the

conversation the guy broaches the subject like you know when are you releasing your next song and I was having a very terrible day like a very very terrible day like I'm not gonna lie like it's you know just kind of like felt a little bit crappy about myself and you know the fact that he actually broached the subject reminded me I'm an artist, I'm a rapper, man. Like, because this person knows, this person knows.

And this person was telling me, ah, you know, he even showed my music to somebody. I was telling me about that. And I was like, you know, I was like, how do I, you know, I was like, how do I? Yeah, like, you know, it's like, it's not, I was asking myself, like, you know, how do I, how do I consolidate this with myself? Like, you know, again, it's almost like I was suffering from imposter syndrome. And then my friend who was, you know, when I went to Canada,

talking to my friend on the phone later, he said to me, you know, you know, it's like, you know, I agree with him. I absolutely agree with him 100%. Like, you know, when is your next song going to come out? You need to release more music and release more music. Just release music. It's a passion. It's a hobby. Just let it go. Like let the music go. And, you know, like, yeah, like, I guess this just one of those things, innit? I guess it's just one of those things where like, I just, I don't know, like, it's weird. It's a reminder that this is real.

I, you know, my music life is real. I am an artist. It's tough sometimes to remind myself of that when it doesn't look and it doesn't feel like the image that I've got in my mind or the image that it's supposed to look like, you know, when considering kind of like how it's being sold nowadays in the industry.
