This series aims to be a recap of all my experiences in choosing to fully pursue music & what I learned from it. In turn I hope it can not only inspire other artist but also uncover all the unspoken rules in keeping one’s sanity while chasing after their music related dreams. Consider this a podcast that chronicles my origin story as I wear my heart on my sleeve on my come up & it hopefully ages well and shows the next man that it’s also possible for them as well.
