I’m embracing more of a mix of hip hop, rock, and country, on this album. With previous projects, I think I was limiting myself to what I thought would fit into the world of hip hop. But hip hop comes in many forms and I should be more open to playing with different sounds.
I put together this collection of songs quickly but they are meaningful. It’s an important chapter in my journey and the next project might sound very different. The lyrics are always critical but the sounds might start changing up a lot more than my longtime followers are used to.
This phase of music for me is about breaking out of limitations. I don’t want to feel like I can’t sing, or make music over different types of instrumentals, which I’ve gotten a lot of pushback on in the past. Time to enter the realization phase.
