I enjoy singing my songs in front of people. I enjoy being involved in making the artwork for albums and stupid stuff like that. ↗

In art, at a certain level, there is no 'better than.' It's just about trying to operate for yourself on the most supreme level, artistically, that you can and hoping that people get it. ↗
