My Dad was solid . No fake shit at all .
Pure love & honesty .
He was my real best friend & my teacher .
Love your parents & record them as much as possible.
These recordings I have of him are really saving & teaching me

discussing dreams & ideas to a non believer can be completely unhealthy
So many of my peers have become controlled by numbers . It’s sad . I hear it in there music . To me it would be torture if my art was to be controlled by anything
I’m just about done with my album DRONES & I need your help. I have room for a few more ingredients . Tell me ... Who would you like to hear me work with? Tag them so if I don’t know them I can get familiar 🙏🏾
