A year ago, my songs had reached about a max of 40k plays on SoundCloud. Today, I look at the plays on Kill Me Slowly and I can’t believe that it’s reached 100k. Honestly, when I first made the song I didn’t really think much of it. That’s the thing, every time I make music I don’t think much of the songs unless I really really like them. I just wanted to say thank you to everyone that plays that track, I honestly am really proud of it. I thought Xaxanity would be a good feature for it, he didn’t charge for the feature and I was like wow. This was before Xaxanity had really blown up in the community, I just loved their voice. When we made the track, they were new to audio and making music I remember. It’s cool watching artists grow and eventually get bigger.
I was on vacation all week with my family. It was fun seeing the Grand Canyon with my two nieces. My family was terrified of falling off the rim, but my one niece and I wanted to walk all the way to the bottom. I have pictures, I’ll have to upload them from my camera. It was fun getting away from literally all work for a week. I still applied for another job in the car…
I love spending time with my nieces, I am really thankful that I have such a loving family and that we’re able to go on these trips together. We saw a lot of cool things, I sat in the sun like a lizard most of the time…
I really miss doing shows, I know that there’s an off season in the winter time for most shows… I just miss having a good club community in my life. Scenes around here evolve and change, i
I haven’t really been going to many shows or anything because I don’t want to spend money on that right now. I said that I didn’t like raves, but I’m sort of missing them with this warm weather.
My goal right now is to finish this album and get some stuff out. I most likely will drop in June or July. Everything is really slow because honestly I need to focus on making money, saving money and spending money strategically. I hope I’ve been keeping in touch with all of the people that listen to my music, that’s sort of been the point of these blogs while I’m not dropping music, because I usually try to drop once a month and it’s been about 4. I just want to do everything right and I’m honestly sort of a perfectionist.
When I get back to Chicago, I will be ready to work work. For now, I am writing this while sitting by the pool in 70+ degree weather. I’ve been by the pool all week, I’ve been eating out all day, I feel so boujie…
I finished this book and I was not really impressed. It was called Fates and Furies by Lauren Groff. It felt like I was reading fanfiction, honestly because the story was unrealistic. I want to read a romance, I like reading the Twilight Saga but after a while, re reading it gets old. My favorite romances honestly have been Jeff the Killer fan fictions, it sounds so messed up. These fan fictions were really edgy, I liked all the drama and the “you can fix him” type stories. Honestly, I tried reading them again and they don’t really resonate with me right now.
Anyway, thanks for checking in ❤️❤️❤️
