We came so far. I just touched down in Italy. It seems like yesterday i was making music in my moms basement and tryna gain followers on soundcloud. No money, no resources and no one tryna help me or put me on. Blood sweat in tears went into this. I remember when the life seemed hopeless. People ignored my messages and emails because they didn’t think i had it. That was back when i gave a f*ck about blogs and magazines posting my music. We’re selling out shows all over the country, all over the world independently. People are singing these songs word for word. You can do anything if you work for it. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. Thank you to everyone that bought a ticket, listens to my music and shows me love!
